1. Who was your first James Bond/which movie did you see first?
Octopussy. So...Roger Moore? I think I was about 10 - Dad was watching it on the TV and I watched most of it (not understanding) until I got chivvied off to bed. Actually watching one through? Pierce Brosnan in GoldenEye
2. Who was your first Doctor in Doctor Who/which episode or serial did you see first?
Tom Baker, glimpsed on TV, again most likely in the 80s. Actually watched? Christopher Eccleston in the "New Who" series of the 00s.
3. What is the first Dracula adaptation you remember seeing/which actor as Dracula?
The one in the 90s, billed as "Bram Stoker's Dracula" with Winona Ryder, Gary Oldman, and Keanu Reeves. I didn't get the appeal then. I still don't.
In fact, I'm not sure I've watched any other Dracula movies or shows since then.
4. Which Star Trek did you see first/can you name the episode/movie?
I think it was TOS at a friend's house back in 2003. I'd heard plenty about it, but never actually seen an episode, so we watched some OldSkool. Which...didn't appeal to me. I don't remember the episode, but I wasn't into it.
The first Star Trek that stuck was the JJ Abrams' movie - the NuTrek one, I think they're calling it.
5. Which Star Wars movie was your first?
My earliest memory of the Star Wars universe is watching Return of the Jedi which had been recorded painstakingly from the TV and which skipped the ads. But I had at some point watched A New Hope, obviously, because I knew what happened. I just don't remember actually watching it.
By the time RotJ was screened on Australian TV, though, it would have been at least 1985, two years after it was released. I don't remember exactly when I watched it, just that I did.
