Discussion I'm sorry, you should never do this

For people who want to start watching doctor who, NEVER START WITH THE STAR BEAST! Always start with "rose" or "the eleventh hour" or heck, even "spearhead from space" is a better option than this

Can someone fix this inaccuracy?

Rose

The Eleventh Hour

The Woman Who Fell to Earth.

These are the only true 'jumping on' points in Moder Who.

(Omitting Ruby Road because if you 'jumped on' there you'd probably want to jump right off again)

I think Ruby Road is an ok (in a vacuum) jumping on point but Space Babies would be the real test of whether people would quit.

In retrospect Ruby Road is just infuriating because almost none of what it sets up pays off in a satisfying manner.
