This is the first season of the revamped Doctor Who series with Christopher Eccelston portraying a more stern, angry and violent “Doctor”. Though only a season long this becomes a base for many of the major plots that develop for the next Doctors (portrayed by David Tennant and Matt Smith). Ecclestons new age portrayal of the Doctor is refreshing to the usual nonsensical behaviour of the Time Lord (besides I guess the First Doctor). The inclusion of Billy Piper was also an interesting addition as her character Rose Tyler becomes a moral compass to the Ninth Doctor's darker urges. Full of drama and some of the usual Doctor antics, this is definitely a must have for a sci-fi fan.
