Breaking news! It's 2023, and that means we are officially in the year of Doctor Who's 60th anniversary.

60 years of the Doctor travelling space and time inside the TARDIS, entertaining literal generations of fans. Though of course, it hasn't been on the air for all of those six decades, having trailed off into the darkest recesses of British culture in 1989.

Then, in March 2005, what we colloquially refer to as "NuWho" began, with Russell T Davies at the helm, and Christopher Eccleston in the starring role. From the off, it was brimming with enthusiasm and potential, and, unsurprisingly, the show once again solidified itself as a fixture of television for decades to come.

However, being that it was re-entering a previously occupied space and trying to reinvent itself for audiences both old and new, it had a tough task to conquer. Just what was Doctor Who supposed to be in this new millennium?

Well, in a word... fantastic.

From the awkward and forgettable to the signs of the brilliance that was to come, here's every episode of Doctor Who Series 1 - the first of the 2005 revival ranked from worst to best.
