"...someone said that no-one who's got into Who through the New Series and then gone onto Classic will prefer the Classic one."

*raises hand* Yes, they do! The old series has that nifty B-movie elan (yes, some of us actually like rubber monsters and cardboard sets for their own sake), long leisurely shaggy-dog storylines and far better companions. The new series is...fine, and all that, but if there were a fire I know which one I'd save.
