Hi! i'm heidi!

I’m on my first ever watch of Doctor Who and really hoping to catch up in time for this year’s Christmas Special (although, I’m not betting on in). I plan on watching 2005-2025 first, then starting Torchword, then Classic Who, and finishing it off with Sarah Jane Adventures.

Other than Doctor Who, I watch Criminal Minds (which features two Whovian characters — Penelope Garcia & Spencer Reid). These are the only two interests I’m currentlt able to maintain and they’re constantly competing for first place.

I am unsure of what else to say ×_× So, I’m going to leave it at that!

Don’t forget K9. Anyway, welcome to forum. When you’ve finished watching everything, you can delve into the neverending black hole that is Big Finish. As for watching, we have the Television > TV Club if you want to chime in on individual episodes/stories.

I’ve just made it to Matt Smith’s era after starting last February

I didn’t know about Class!! I’ll made sure to add that to my list so I don’t forget :slight_smile:

You’ve got some great episodes coming up!

It’s definitely one of the more obscure spin-offs (although there is also K-9 and Company)

I look forward to seeing you around!

Hi! Di.

That’s a terrible joke, I apologize. But yes, welcome! I hope you have a great time here and with your time watching the show. I just finished the Matt Smith era and if you’re just starting then I’ll tell you, his first series is great!

Hi and welcome!

How lovely to meet someone who’s experiencing it all for the very first time! Please share your thoughts as you go along, I’m sure we’re all interested in hearing what you think!

Also, you’re currently in my favourite era! I hope you enjoy!

Also, out if curiosity, why have you decided on that particular watch order (New Who, Torchwood, Classic, SJA)?

Welcome!

Oh, I envy you, watching Who for the first time!!

Matt Smith’s era is brilliant. What do you think of River Song? :heart_eyes:

Have you gone in blind or had any of the big twists spoiled for you?

Look forward to hearing your thoughts!

The order is easier for my brain to process things. Since Jack is in New Who, I want to watch Torchwood once I’ve finished that up. Then, I want to start Classic and since Sarah Jane is in that, I’ll go to SJA adventures next.

:sob::sob: It’s probably a really confusing order to anyone who understands Doctor Who

Welcome! Glad you’re able to share your first watch-through with us, can’t wait to hear what you think as you progress. There’s no pressure to get through everything as fast as possible, even some of us who’ve been fans for years haven’t watched everything (I, for example, have yet to finish Classic and I’ve been a fan for almost a decade).

River seems super interesting!! I just love her so much, she’s my wife (sorry, Doctor!)

I’ve had a few things spoiled but I’m actually surprised by how many twists I haven’t known about before watching them happen.

She’s amazing, my favourite character :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Definitely try to keep away from spoilers, but then when you catch up come and chat about her!

Not at all :slight_smile: that order actually makes perfect sense. And the beauty with DW is that you can watch most of it in any order you like, and you don’t have to watch it all uf you don’t feel like it.

Incidentally, I’ve been a fan for 12 years and I’m currently watching SJA fie the very first time myself!
