Fluffy, I'd not thought of that. I'll see if I can edit the poll...

Fifteen years ago I would have said Tom Baker without hesitation. I started the series when he and Jon Pertwee commanded the role. I think both did wonderful jobs. For sheer range, though, through emotive expression and strong presence/dialogue, I do believe that now I would go with David Tennant. For his brief stint Christopher Eccleston also did a very good job - though he is right that if he stayed on, doing a good job, he would have been brutally typecast.

I don't have any one favourite episode, though I do enjoy Doomsday. Call it cliche, but the scene where they sense each other through the wall, unable to touch, is a sharp reminder of when I miss my girl the most, and cannot hold her.

Baker was good, hugely good, but Ecclestone and Tennant have my lusty thoughts now, oh to tag team those two would be freakin hot

Status: offline 		I thought Baker and Pertwee were both great at engrossing the audience with their zany approach, but Eccleston made it cool like a zany James Bond. I didn't care much for the other Dr. Whos.

Tom Baker did not appear in The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. Elrond was played by Hugo Weaving of The Matrix fame.

He was an elf healer in the Dungeons and Dragons, seen him in quite a few things now

If he was ever to play a character in Lord of the Rings I'd have put him down for Tom Bombadil
