The first episode I watched when it was new was VOTD and starting with series 4 in 2008 I saw each new episode on Saturdays; before that I only saw the Doctor Who episodes on DVD or on PBS repeats. It is very exciting to watch the episodes soon after they're aired, especially during Christmastime. I voted for A Christmas Carol in this poll, because it had a very Christmas theme and is based on the Charles Dickens story that a lot of people associate with the holidays.
