Comment on Doctor 9, 10, and 11 by JNapier99
i think sevens solioquy to an assasins to kill him point blank is quite memorable too
because with that speech it cemented for me that yes this is somebody who can take down whole civilsations
i do actually know that baker was treated unfairly by the bbc and that he had his tenure cut short
after the trial of a timelord he was unceremoniously shown the door and his last words on the show were carrot juice
and he may just have appeared in 11 stories
he still appeared in more episodes then mr ecclescake ( who was the first doctor i watched btw )
and yes i am also aware fo hsi big finish audio's
and i do plan to buy a few
the real question is where to start though

I would recommend the Lost Stories. The scripts for the year that was lost to hiatus are now available as finished audio episodes. It's quite interesting to hear what that series would have been like had it not been lost. (Interestingly, they are also recording scripts for other Doctors that were never done for television. I'm quite interested in "The Foe from the Future" myself.)
On the other hand, if you'd prefer to start with the normal range, there is a list on Wikipedia of all the monthly releases, including which Doctor(s) feature(s) in them.
I see your point about Colin Baker appearing in more total eps than Eccleston, but since the modern show isn't serialized, I don't think one can think of a classic era episode in the same way you would a modern day episode. The classic eps are chapters in a story, whereas the modern eps are usually self-contained (except for the odd two- or three-parter), even when the series itself may constitute a larger story arc. My point is, Colin Baker didn't get a fair shot.
