My first impression was this trailer with Eccleston walking in a tunnel with fire behind him and some clips with the plastic-monsters.
At that time I thought: Meeeeeh... Rubbish  Roll Eyes.

Watching the original title sequence on 23rd November 1963.  Instantly hooked.

I remember seeing the description for one of the episodes when I was little, but the only things that stuck with me from it was the phrase "The good Doctor" and something about being trapped. I always pictured an older English gentleman that adventures across the globe with a pretty assistant (So I really wasn't that far off), and I knew he had some sort of blue box with him.

Incidentally, the should bring back "The Good Doctor" for the episode summaries. I like it Smiley

Well, you did had the right impression about the "Good" Doc, accept the fact about him being from another planet. 
And I wonder, do we really need to specify his good part? Since in each summary it would be "the Good Doctor fights Baddies". I don't know... When you say "Good Doctor" I picture a little dog wearing a fez and a bowtie.Tongue

He is also vain, ego-centric and quite mad

My first impression was of watching The Robots of Death and being scared witless!

I began with Series 5 and I literally knew nothing of the show at all. I'd heard of Daleks but didn't even know what one looked like. I knew it was about a spaceman and that was about it. When I watched The Eleventh Hour I was hooked and I'm getting through the classics now pretty rapidly.
