What took so long was my inability or desire to torrent the show as many I know have done. The fact people were able to see the show weeks if not months before it aired on tv made me not interested. I desiced to wait and see an edited version on my 37 in flat panel tv than on my 10 in circa 1998 computer monitor. I have only recently been told that through my XBox I could watch a torrent on my regular tv.
What also made it difficult was not having the ability to record from my tv until a couple of years ago so if I was not home when it aired on BBC TV, I missed it. By seeing episodes out of order I missed out of enjoying the story arcs that were created during each season as many times the clues to future events are given.
Anyway, this is how I saw them (including the specials):

Thanks go out to Mr Tuesday and i got nothing for allowing me to see the episodes on DVD.

Madman, my pleasure. If you need any others let me know. I also have a fairly extensive collection of the first two ORIGINAL Doctors. It's a different feel but they grow on you after awhile.
I know what you mean about the missing the episodes. I asked someone who was rather unreliable to recorde them for me when SciFi (that was it's name then) and BBC America started showing the new series. Of course as I said...unreliable, so I ended up buying the first four seasons of the new shows. Was a bit pricey but I REALLY enjoyed the shows and have gladly lent them to about 4 people now. So I think looking at it that way, I got my monies worth.
New season is going well. Lets hope they keep it going as long as the original series.
