Last updated on January 12, 2020. Each season of Classic Doctor Who contains a series of series that consists of several episodes. Below is every Doctor Who serial classified and ranked. I got my list of episodes from a fantastic Wikipedia entry, a list of Doctor Who TV series. I also consulted Nerdist in the Doctor Who for Rookie series (First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh), Geeks Doom's 10th Classic 'Doctor Who' Adventure Worth Check Articles, and Doctor Who magazine's Big 200 Reader Poll to make sure I didn't present a single episode. Leave any suggestions for changes in the comments below. If you want to start on a later episode, Ritch and Space have a video that covers good starting points and watch habits. Another great option to start with is Doctors Revisited, a BBC series profiling each doctor and then revealed one of their classic stories.

Doctor Who: Trial of a Time Lord
Accused of ‘crimes against the involate laws of evolution’, the Doctor is on trial for his life. The sinister prosecutor, the Valeyard, presents the High Council of Time Lords with the second piece of evidence against the Doctor: a dramatic adventure on the planet Thoros-Beta which led to the renegade Time Lord’s summons to the court of Enquiry. But as the Doctor watches the scenes on the Matrix he is puzzled by what he sees – his behaviour is not as he remembers. Only one thing is certain: on the evidence of the Matrix the Doctor is surely guilty as charged .

PART ONE THE DOCTOR AND HIS COMPANIONS 1 1 A Young-Old Face Out with the New and in with the Old in Doctor Who Richard Hewett Introduction ‘I approve of your new face, Doctor - so much more like mine.’ This line, spoken by the now ancient, enervated and seemingly dying Davros in ‘The Magician’s Apprentice’, is just one of many age-related barbs directed at the Twelfth Doctor during Peter Capaldi’s reign, serving as a constant reminder that the Time Lord is no longer (if, indeed, his on-screen self ever was)1 a young man. Throughout his tenure, friends and foes alike highlighted the latest incarnation’s wrinkled, somewhat cadaverous visage, grey hair, and scrawny body, the Doctor being variously described as a ‘desiccated man crone’ (‘Robot of Sherwood’), a ‘grey-haired stick insect’ (‘Listen’), and a ‘skeleton man’ (‘Last Christmas’).
