DO you think that if a person hasn’t watched the Classic era BUT WANTS TO, and has watched every doctor of the New era (not necessarily all episodes) they can be called a Whovian? (oh btw please put my name in the tags when you reply, this is a sort of survey)

I think you can be called a Whovian if you have only seen the new series and not watched the classics. I started watching with Four and stopped after Five and picked up again with Seven and then not again til Ten. I have slowly worked backwards but have not seen all the Classic serials myself.

I think you can have started with RTD and Nine and watched all the way through and still call yourself a Whovian, absolutely. I think knowing the rich history that comes with the Doctor is better but doesn’t define your viewing now 🙂
