Spoiler-free descriptions throughout. This is a curated set of 15 widely-loved episodes, not the full 140+ — a good excuse to come back and build a second list later.
Use the ↑ ↓ arrows to move an episode up or down. The list starts in chronological order (Series 1 → Series 14) — not a ranking — so the first move is entirely up to you.
