4th Doctor – Tom Baker (1974-1980)

Tom Baker (1974-1980)

Tom Baker’s Doctor was for many years both the most popular Doctor and the most well recognized. Having the longest run as the Doctor to date, his season’s were also blessed with some of the best writing and creativity of the series.

Tom Baker brought back a lightheartedness to the Doctor again, with his offbeat sense of humor and quick wit, and yet he often would turn on a dime and be the most capable of adversaries against his enemies.

He was and still is one of the greatest Doctor’s of the series long run.
