I know there's a lot there, but the annoying thing about NuWho is that it's more arc-based. I'll have a go at a bit more chopping, but it's practically impossible to avoid watching some of them because then you'll be left with loose ends in later episodes. This looks like it'll be even more of the case for Series 5 (although due to the fact that series 5, IMHO, has been more consistently high-quality overall, that shouldn't be too much of an issue.)

In response, I’ve compiled a list of essential episodes to watch before attempting series 5, and, in the hope someone else might find it useful, I’ve pubished it over at t’other place.
