The blond guy in the cricket outfit was Peter Davison and he was the fifth incarnation of the Doctor. He was actually my favourite as at the time Tom Baker used to scare me (hey, I was young!).

I watched the NEW show and have to say that I thought it was great. First episodes are always tricky but I felt it helped to set up the relationship between the Doctor and Rose (Billie Piper) very well.

I just wish they'd added lyrics to the end credits and gotten Billie to sing it (a la Anita Dobson with "Anyone Can Fall in Love" sung to the theme tune of EastEnders - anyone remember that??? ).
