I saw both the Dr. Who movies with Peter Cushing as the 
Doctor.  They are *really* quite bad.  The movies are not
faithful to the BBC show;  as someone else mentioned, in the
movie the Doctor is just an eccentric earth man.
The Doctor does very little in the movies -- 
the real star is his granddaughter Susan, who
is about 8 years old (unlike Susan in the William Hartnell
series).  I do not recommend the movies for Dr. Who fans
above the age of 7.
