People are thinking what's more likely to kill him, but an Enemy is someone who is trying to hunt him down and face him, like the Daleks, quite often Cyberman come across him and face him openly, The Master.

As an opponent, I'd say The Master, the Doctor can, but can't and won't ever kill him.

As a Nemesis, The Daleks, who else could it be?

As for anyone who thinks it's the weeping angels, they're not an enemy, they're like two children fighting in a playground.

The epsiode called "Dalek"
Possibly the greatest episode of Doctor Who ever - because it actually made you feel frightened of yet sorry for this lone, battered killing machine. Something that hasn't really happened since

Officially it would be the Daleks, they've been his enemies longer han anyone, and of the Timelord race itself.

But I think the Master is a far greater threat to the Doctor's wellbeing. He will never bring himself to kill him, and the Daleks never made the Doctor their prisoner for an entire year in a successful takeover of Earth did they?

Weeping Angels are like lawn ornaments compared to the Master(especially No.Six. He was brilliant, and funny, and diabolical, and sexy).

Why can't you kill them?

i) Look at one, then have a friend place a mirror in front of it's face.
ii) Look at one, strap some dynamite to it and keep watching as you blast it to smithereens.
I don't know to be honest, I'm just stating what has been said in the series. Maybe they are made of admantium or whatever the wiimotes are made out of. Those things are just unbreakable.

but it seems that they do seem to age, albeit VEEEEERY patiently. So maybe you can kill one by winning a staring contest (but the staring will probably make you go insane or make you think or rock before you get anywhere close to winning...)

Fun fact: Angels are portrayed not by statutes but by actual actors! who would've thought!

oh and I know most of those only appear in one episode but if you think about it, the doctor has very few regular enemies
Uh....

Missing the Weeping Angels, The Silurians, The Sea Devils, The Movellans, The Rani, The Mad Monk, The Black Guardian....

But yeah, there's only one real nemesis:

Not to offend anybody but....
What exactly is doctor who
Doctor who is THE longest lasting sci-fi series currently in existence (correct me if I'm wrong)

The premise is a humanoid alien (a Time lord) who's (presumably) the last of his kind. And using his TARDIS (a time machine /spaceship... thing) he explores the universe (and sometimes beyond) in countless areas and eras. He's often accompanied by a human (girl) sidekick.

That and he has the odd ability to almost always appear either where he is needed, or where there will be trouble.

The Title comes from the fact that he refers to himself as simply "The Doctor" and so, people have a tendency to ask "The doctor?... Doctor who?"

It's not the Star Wars, Star Trek or Battlestar Galactica kind of Sci-fi, but it's awesome none the less.

I highly recommend you watch from Season 1 of the Renewed Series (started in... 2004 or 5?)

I have to agree... especially since he said on saturdays episode that they are the most powerful thing evolution has ever created. I personally think they are awesome too.

The Daleks have had some pretty good episodes and so have the Cybermen

But the Master has had some show stopping material that had made me weep ;(

I'd have sided with the weeping Angels though if they were on here as they are just bloody scary and they are 2 of the best Doctor Who episodes I've seen

I'd say the Master. He and the Doctor are two sides of the same coin, and he's a very well-rounded character.

However, some of the Doctor's enemies are far more powerful, and more terrifying from the perspective of the man himself - like the Black Guardian (the living embodiment of chaos and entropy) and the Valeyard (a distillation of all the evil in the Doctor's nature - he even frightened the Master into cooperating with his rival to take him down).
There's also the higher-ups in the Time Lord hierarchy, like Rassilon, Omega, Borusa, Goth, Morbius and Hedin.

The Master. He's so damn cunning, and is not flummoxed by stairs, cross country terrain and vertically-opening doors stuck halfway. Plus he managed to push Tom Baker off a satellite dish, therefore he is also a threat to the fans.

Personally my biggest issue with a lot of the new series material is how over-powered all the villans are. Im not really up to date on the older material but I do remember watching two guys kill a Dalek with a length of rope in a film/special type thing (they used the rope to drag it into an open lift-shaft) the "modern" Daleks would laugh off something like that.

If I am facing the ultimate power of evil in the universe or whatever Im more scared/impressed by something I think I might have a fighting chance against than by something I know I don't have a hope in hell against and need the Doctor to save my useless human ass.

Thats the reason I like the Weeping Angels.

Also was it just me or has there been a lot of repeated themes in in the newer material? Im talking about nano-foes. Gas-mask zombies? awsome, Shadow-zombies (the library episode) hrmmm, Water-zombies (second last David Tennant special) Ive seen this before...

yes that was the docs first adventure "doctor who and the daleks" in those days an army of daleks was beaten by an equal number of primitie humanoids, in this day and age a single dalek could take on an army of cybermen, and people really used to have nightmares about those things?

the vashta nerada were in no way zombies, they completely devoured people and then just so happened to use their suits as a vessel. i always thought theyd have been safer if they HADNT sealed their suits, i mean, quite besides the fact that theyd know when one of them got eaten it also might have stopped the vashta nerada from being able to conrol them so easily

pretty obvious if you stop and think about it, i mean, theres only so many angel statues in different poses any one film crew can stash, and i dought a flexible one of that size would keep its shape very well, nor would it look very realistic
