It was great stuff and still is, even with the cheesy special effects.
As a kid, the only Dr. Who I knew of was Tom baker. I knew that he was a time lord, I knew there were others before him and would be others after him, but Tom was the main guy for most of my younger years.
"Track 2: Diamonds
"Diamonds"
All I am is the bones you made for me
So garishly clean
White as the horses, they carry me away
No my demons, you said, come and go with a haze
Minds will too play
Grow old in my ways
Oh, just like you do.
Oh there ain't no diamonds in the boredom
Oh there ain't no darkness that I fear
Oh there ain't no way to say I love you more, no
So be clear, just to be clear
So be clear, be clear.
All I am is the bones you made for me
Just driftwood "
"I rushed home every day, as a child, to watch Tom Baker as Doctor Who and Peter Davison after him. It wasn't until later that I got to see some of the earlier stuff. Star Trek was my favorite sci-fi show but this was a very close second!

"William Hartnell as The Doctor(1)
John Pertwee as The Doctor(3)
Tom Baker as The Doctor(4)
Christopher Eccleston as The Doctor(9)
David Tennant as The Doctor(10)
People have their favorites among the 11 or so Doctors that have played the role. I watched many of the episodes with Tom Baker, on re-runs.
There have been many Doctors, and I won't list them all. However, I can link you to a list where you'll find all of them.
