20 Mind-Blowing Doctor Who Facts You Never Knew

20. Peter Davison Didn't Enjoy The Classic Series Of Doctor Who

More favourable of the newer revival, the Fifth Doctor€™s portrayer Peter Davison isn't such a great fan of the original run. He has stated that there were some suspect scripts during his time as the Doctor, written by writers who weren€™t fans of science fiction. Davison is a fan of the romantic elements of the newer series, and he stated that the show never really managed to write a good companion until Rose Tyler. Interviewed for the 50th anniversary, Davison cited The Caves of Androzani, The Visitation and Earthshock as his favourite starring serials, with Time-Flight being his worst. Do you agree with him?
