It's inevitable that I will buy all the Doctor Who box sets. Probably as soon as I have a good weekend at faire. Hell, probably as soon as I have A weekend at faire. I've been dithering, though, about which series to buy first. I probably like Series Two best at the moment, but then, Four made me cry/laugh/squeal a lot.

But I think the deciding factor is this: I have to get Series One, because how else will I insidiously get my friends hooked when they come over? One MUST start at the beginning. It's so much easier that way.

Got much done tonight with [livejournal.com profile] surlywench. There is, of course, much more to do. And I honestly don't feel any better about how much work is staring me in the face. Still, progress is progress. I'll be ready for opening weekend. So help me. I will have earned my BBC-born treat.

What? You mean you plan on going back to 1963? :P

I'm doing that right now, and while the first 4-part "episode" was a bit tough, I'm relly loving the rest of Doctor one, season one.

*nod* One is so vastly different from Nine and Ten, it's really interesting. :) I'm watching One at work during my lunch breaks, and Seven at home. I *adore* Seven. :)

I grew up on Seven, so I've a bit of a soft spot for him, too. He's my mom's favorite.

I have all three boxed sets, but I actually started two of my SCA friends with The Shakespeare Code from three. Cause, you know, Shakespeare. :-)

NOW I start with collecting the Old Who. My DH is quite pleased, it makes gift buying almost effortless!

I think starting with Series One is a good idea - plus, you get Nine!Love! :)
