My first episode was Destiny of the Daleks all the way back in the 1980s, which I think was a good episode to start on.

    I also watched it on PBS via antenna though. 2 seasons over and over. There was no nerd culture then, just nerd. My mom knitted me a scarf just like his

      I’ve got the scarf my mom made hanging in my laundry room waiting to be very, very gently washed (for the first time ever, so I’m a bit nervous).

      In high school marching band I would roll it up and bring it with to football games, then unroll it on the aluminum bleachers and let the majorettes sit in a row on either side of me. Did that until I got a girlfriend who played flute in the band. Then we’d use it.

      When I was in college, a friend gave me a complete run of Five that he had taped from his PBS station and every single time, there was a break and the announcer would say, “we’ll return to the Doctor Who movie in just a moment…” and it drove me crazy because, you know, it’s not a freakin’ movie!
