David Tennant’s Tenth Doctor sleeps through most of his own debut in The Christmas Invasion, while the Sycorax menace Earth and a satsuma decides its fate.

My own Season 1 celebration: Eccleston’s Ninth Doctor, the Slitheen, Dalek, and a finale I was not ready for.

The Ninth Doctor refuses to fire the delta wave, Rose becomes the Bad Wolf, and Doctor Who says goodbye to Eccleston in The Parting of the Ways.

The Doctor, Rose, and Captain Jack face deadly game shows on Satellite Five, but the “Bad Wolf” mystery hides a chilling truth. Daleks return! #DoctorWho

Boom Town looks like a filler episode, but the dinner scene between the Doctor and Margaret Blaine is one of Series 1’s best moral gut-punches.

“Everybody lives, Rose! Just this once, everybody lives!” This iconic line from “The Doctor Dances” (episode 1.10) perfectly encapsulates the heart of this brilliant episode. Now that I’ve gotten “back …

A gas-masked child roams Blitz-era London asking “Are you my mummy?” in Doctor Who’s The Empty Child, the scariest hour yet.

Rose saves her dad in “Father’s Day” and nearly unravels time itself – one of Doctor Who’s most personal, gut-punch hours.

The Long Game takes the Doctor and Rose to Satellite Five, where the news beamed down to Earth is being controlled by something living in the ceiling.

The Ninth Doctor finally meets a Dalek face to face, and the fear on Eccleston’s face says more about the Time War than any speech could.

World War Three review. The Slitheen hold Downing Street, and the Doctor has Mickey fire a missile at the building while he and Rose are still inside.

Aliens of London review. A ship hits Big Ben, Rose learns she has been gone twelve months not twelve hours, and the first alien we meet is a pig.

The Unquiet Dead sends the Doctor and Rose to Cardiff in 1869, where the dead walk and the Doctor argues the Gelth should be allowed to use them.

The End of the World takes Rose five billion years forward to watch the Earth burn, and the Doctor finally tells her what happened to his own planet.

Doctor Who is back after sixteen years. Rose Tyler goes to work, the shop dummies stand up, and a stranger grabs her hand and says run.

Spider-Man 2 review. Molina turns Doc Ock into a man overruled by his own machine, the train scene is iconic, and Peter walks away from the job.

Spider-Man review. Raimi puts the wrestling ring and Uncle Ben on screen exactly as the comics did, and Dafoe is magnificent. The leads are too old.

Dune 1984 review. A bit camp and it looks like the 60s, but all of book one is on screen, and Patrick Stewart, MacLachlan and the Baron are exceptional.
