Scaring me with that title, god.

That’s my Doctor.
I know, like I’ve loved David Tennant and Eccleston is probably my favourite, but when you say Doctor Who, Tom Baker is the first image that comes in to my head. He might not be my favourite but he is my Doctor.
Weird how much he's grown to look like the 1st Doctor.
He was my Doctor, though Tennant won me over eventually, so good in the role. Tom Baker though - I would always watch Dr Who before going out as a teenager and he was just amazing and the show so good even with the foam rubber special effects. Hair so different now but that smile is the same! He looks great for 91.
Such a difference from the Curator, and that was, what? 13 years ago now?
I am actually a little suprised he was not knighted already. Him as the 4th Doctor is so iconic. I bet you could show him dressed in that outfit to any adult anywhere in the world and they would probably know what or who he is
Does that make him the first or second doctor to be so honored?
Are we counting Peter Cushing, OBE?
John Hurt (the War Doctor) has a CBE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Hurt
Also Wilf has an OBE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Cribbins
If we're counting Peter Cushing, then actors from the curse of the deadly death should count.
Rowan Atkinson has a CBE
Joanna Lumley DBE FRGS
