1. The Doctor Doctor Who
Oh come on, what else could it be? If I missed this out, every Whovian would come for me with rightly-deserved brickbats. Simply put, there's a reason why many show fans rank him above Tom Baker as the best Doctor. Sporting a natty blue-and-brown suit, an Estuary English accent and a pair of iconic Converse trainers, Tennant's portrayal of the Tenth Doctor can arguably be credited with making Doctor Who the colossus it is today. That's not to do Christopher Eccleston a disservice he provided the grounding for the show, but it was Tennant's energetic turn which took it to stratospheric heights. And really, it was an incredibly varied performance despite being a 'young' Doctor, he conveyed the gravitas of an ageless demigod superbly, imbuing his performance with the world-weariness befitting the Timelord mantle. There was simply nothing the guy couldn't do he could oscillate between light-hearted joy, steely resolve and malevolent d*ckhness with aplomb at a moment's notice. When allowed to flex his dramatic muscles, the pure drama he could whip up was magnificent. The standout for me was the Human Nature/Family Of Blood double-header, where he so ably flitted between the bookish, distraught John Smith a man experiencing an existential hammer-blow, realising he was nothing but a shadow and the confident, charismatic Doctor was something to behold, and makes the Scot well worthy of his lofty status among the Doctors. Let's just forget about the Ghostbusters bit, shall we? So that's what I think. What do you think? Feel free to comment!
