Sorry, but it's true. Well, according to a survey conducted by Radio Times last year, anyway. David Tennant won the poll with a landslide majority of the votes - and there was over 20,000 of 'em - as he was definitively named as the nation's favourite Time Lord to date.

Whether you love him or loathe him, though, you can't deny the fact that David has left a lasting legacy on the show's mythology and, for whatever reason, it's one that's in a different league to the majority of his predecessors. What's more, his regeneration in The End of Time, Part Two is one of Doctor Who's most watched moments of all time and you can't argue with the facts. That's not to say that winning this poll makes it a fact that he really is the best Doctor, of course, but it's certainly a strong suggestion. People just love him, in all his Converse wearing glory.
