Best Eccleston Episode?
So, I had promised a friend to sit down and introduce them to some new Who, via a Eccleston episode.. just not sure what one.
Instead of muck up the episode viewing forum, decided to post here.
I think my best bet would try and hook them with 'The Empty Child', then they'd end up wanting to see the second half. I really remember it being the strongest episodes in that season, or two of them anyway.
But, I'd like to know what you all think!
Edit: ..annnd of course, I forgot to setup the poll. So I suppose if you could just post your thoughts.

Before reading anything more than the thread title, I was going to suggest "The Empty Child." Works well because it's a strong episode and it all but hooks them in for the second part.

Agreed! There it is.

He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic to topic so that no one had a chance to interrupt him it was really quite hypnotic.

Something like that I suppose.
Thanks for the opinions everyone, going to try and show them the two parter, even though Dalek is a very strong one as well.
