If I were to be completely honest with you, I will say I personally prefer Cushing to Hartnell. Don't get me wrong Bill is is wonderful as Doctor number 1, however his grumpiness can become rather tiresome. Granted he becomes more agreeable as his era continues, but he can still be a bit of a nasty piece of work. Whereas Peter was much more approachable, and all the more enjoyable to watch, in my own personal opinion of course.

@Klaus Sperger And where else can we see Cushing playing this 'cliche'? I remember him playing Van Helsing and various baddies in cinema. I've never seen him play a confused professor before. Besides which, short of copying Hartnell's portrayal (which considering he's quite sinister at this point in the 'real' Doctor's continuity), how do you think this version of the Doctor could have been played instead? The 'confused professor' balances out the rest of the TARDIS crew.

Living in the US, the Cushing films (on Saturday morning television) were my first introduction to The Doctor. It was some years later that I learned it was a series first.

I mean he could just be a younger version of the Doctors first incarnation, I don't think there's ever been any mention of Time Lords incarnations not being able to age and I think he probably regenerates from one to the other throughout his adventures too quickly for any of his other ones to age.

The first Dr Who story I watched entirely from start to finish was Day of the Daleks,with Jon Pertwee as the Doctor,Katy Manning as Jo Grant and the UNIT crew,shown in four Saturday teatime episodes from the start of 1972. I quickly became a fan of the TV series and fascinated by the Daleks to the point of making an assortment of model ones out of paper and other bits,in a variety of colours,that populated my bedroom that summer. The second and third Dalek stories I saw were these ones when they came on TV that year,the first one one night around the start of the school summer holidays and the Daleks Invasion of Earth 2150 AD at the start of the Christmas holidays. So they may not be "canon" but it's always been a very much a cherished part of the Whoniverse for me.

Steven Moffat tried to canonize these films in the BBC Doctor Who universe by having them exist as films in that universe based on hearsay of the Doctor's adventures.

Many attempts have been made by many people over the years to somehow canonize Peter Cushing's Doctor. Peter himself had a theory saying that his Doctor was a future incarnation banished to the past by the Celestial Toymaker & forced to relive past adventures, which is a nice idea, but it doesn't cover for the Doctor being human & inventing the TARDIS with Susan in the movies. The BBC tried to include the Cushing movies as in-universe fiction by having Ian & Barbara tell the stories of their adventures with the Doctor to a film producer who had them made into movies. They were even going to have the posters of rhe movies in the U.N.I.T vault in either around the latter half of Matt Smith's tenure or somewhere in Capaldi's run, but they couldn't get the rights from Studiocanal who own the Cushing movies. My theory is that Cushing's Doctor is the aged human clone of Tennant's Doctor who was banished to the parallel universe with Rose. As he remained there, his memories of the Daleks left him (as he doesn'trecognize them in the first movie), but he had enough memory of the TARDIS to rebuild his own with Susan, which is why he deliberately made it out of a police box because he remembered that as the exterior (in-universe in the Cushing films, there isn't any logical reason why Cushing's Doctor used a police box as the vessel, & it especially doesn't make any sense how he got one as police boxes where still _very_ much in service on the streets when these movies came out).

These films were amazing the special effects pure imagination through not technically the tv Doctor Who I do think Peter Cushing was fantastic I did once read an article where he was asked if he would like to become the 2rd Doctor or 3rd doctor turn them down but I think if he had be either his doctor would be slightly different to the movie version he played on screen and perhaps not unlike himself his Dr Frankenstein and Shelock Holmes and other characters from novels to one character who built a tunnelling machine who kind of reminds a bit of his doctor in The Land That Time Forgot so I wonder if he actually considered the tv version?
