Over its 62 year history (21 of which covering Modern Who), Doctor Who has had a lot of big moments. From the best speeches and biggest tear-jerkers to the most emotional interactions and exciting plot twists, there's plenty to love in the different eras of the show - so I asked YOU to tell me what your favourite moments are! Let's debate the best of Doctor Who as I reflect on some of my personal favourites...
