Not that all long term fans can be banded into this category, of course (far from it, in fact), but there's a minority who believe that they know more about Doctor Who than anyone else, just because they've been watching it "since before you were born", as it were. Well, that's just all different kinds of wrong. After all, it doesn't make the slightest bit of difference when you watched the older episodes, which is kind of why they go through the bother of releasing them on DVD in the first place. These old-fashioned fogeys are so adamant in their beliefs that they've been known to dismiss 'NuWho' fans entirely, and, in some extreme cases, even NuWho itself. Their loss.
