LOL. Well, who's your favorite Doctor? Four, Five, and Nine are probably
my top three, with Four as the absolute best.

 1 4 and 10/REal 13 for me.

 You like One, eh? That era confused me a little when I first saw it,
when I was a kid. Everyone kept referring to Susan as a child and
treating her like one, but she was clearly a grown woman. As an adult, I
figure this is Dawson's Creek casting and we're expected to take the
character as younger than the actress, but I didn't get that as a kid.
 For me, the show ended with Twelve. I don't even know what this current
show is, but it doesn't seem much like Doctor Who.

In the original episodes, Susan was enrolled as a student at a local school, so she would have been high school age (like Dawson's Creek, Smallville, Beverly Hills 90210, etc.).
