asked:
My friend said to me that he wants to start watching Doctor Who starting with this new season. Is that a good idea, do you think?
answered:
Uhhh… The way Doctor Who is written now I’m not sure if it’s exactly as friendly to newcomers as it used to be. But if they want, they can. They’re just going to miss out on a LOT of references. I mean a lot.
A good place to START would be the beginning of the new who with eccleston and then when they are caught up, they can go back and start from the very beginning with hartnel.
