As Doctor Who star Jodie Whittaker prepares to hand over the keys of the Tardis to Ncuti Gatwa the time has come to assess the performance of all the previous Time Lords. Sex Education star Gatwa will become the 14th actor to play the iconic role, and the sixth since writer Russell T Davies brought the sci-fi series back to life in 2005.
He will join an illustrious list of actors who have all brought something new to the role, from William Hartnell, the original Doctor who first travelled through time in 1963, to the latest incumbent Whittaker, who will bring her time on the Tardis to a close with a special due to air later this year.
So who has been the best Doctor? All fans of the show have their own favourite, with most choosing the actor who played the role during their peak childhood years - and you can make your own choice using our interactive gadget below.
