Where Dr. Who with David Tennant is much more of a whiz-bang fest of funny faces and physical comedy, Dr. Who with Christopher Eccleston is just as engaging, but dryer, more restrained. I find Eccleston&#8217;s delivery crisper and smugger, with an edge of arrogance that I don&#8217;t find in Tennant.
