The Telegraph has done a list of The 10 greatest episodes of Doctor Who ever. There is quite a bit wrong with their list. There are no Troughton era stories, The Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve is the Hartnell era episode and Inferno is the Pertwee era episode on the list. And to top it off there is a McCoy era episode on the list. Not surprisingly the Tom Baker era has the most serials listed (3). There is one Peter Davison era story, one story from the ninth doctor and two from the tenth doctor.
Now as I said earlier, I haven't seen the 4-8th Doctors yet but even so there are definitely episodes missing from the list and a few that shouldn't be there.
The Dead Planet would be a much better serial from the first Doctor.
Where are the Troughton era serials? If nothing else War Games should be there. (No I haven't seen it, but I know what it's about and what happens). The Evil of the Daleks or The Invasion would be good ones to add as well.
I liked Doctor Who and the Silurians better than Inferno, but maybe that's just me.
Now I'm going to skip to the ninth and tenth Doctor.
Dalek (to me) is a better choice than The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances.
Army of Ghosts/Doomsday makes more sense to have on the list than Human Nature/Family of the Blood.
While Blink was a good episode Planet of the Ood is better.
