Top Ten Hartnell Stories
« Thread Started on Jun 1, 2006, 5:36am »
So, what are YOUR Top Ten William Hartnell Doctor Who Stories? (Whole Stories please! Not just a single episode unless you're putting down 'Mission to the Unknown'.)
Also which story do you think is his worst? The List must be in descending order for the 'Best' category.

Mine are:

1.) The War Machines
2.) The Crusade
3.) The Daleks' Masterplan
4.) The Dalek Invasion of Earth
5.) The Aztecs
6.) Marco Polo
7.) An Unearthly Child
8.) The Tenth Planet
9.) The Massacre
10.) The Myth Makers

Worst TV Story (In My Opinion):

The Rescue

Read the synopsises(sic) on the main site to jog your memory. That's what I did. ;)

If you could touch the alien sand or hear the cries of strange birds and watch them wheel in another sky...would that satisfy you?

Haven't seen all of them and to be honest I've never really liked Hartnell stories enough to bother watching them. Marco Polo was good, judging by the novelisation. The Aztecs was o.k.
