Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Say you wanted to introoduce kids (ages 7 to 12) to Doctor Who. What non-classic episodes would folks recommend? "Rose"? "The Eleventh Hour"? Others?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Doctor Dances.
Wait, do you like the kids?

Heh. Well, they're related to me, including my two sons, so kinda. But my brain went to an inappropriate place before ita's post - I was thinking of when Captain Jack is naked and pulls a gun he was hiding on him.

The two-parter from the Eccleston season with the farting aliens--kids would love that one.

That'd be a good one.
I was also thinking of "The Christmas Invasion", but with the Doctor MIA for more than half the episode, I worry they might get bored.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
If they're into scary, the angel episodes are good. They might be less enamored of The Girl in the Fireplace than more "pretty dresses" oriented kids, but it does have a horse. They may be the prefect demographic for Scottish Ninja Monks and Werewolves.

I watched the first three episodes of Doctor Who.
I like it, I think? My question is, are there recurring characters of any sort of are the Doctor and Rose the only constant fixtures? (I know the Doctor and the companion changes, I haven't been living under a rock or anything) It seems so far that it is completely random people every week. Which is fine, I guess? I'll definitely a few more episodes at the very least, it is certainly fun.
