Dalek Invasion of Earth (One - though this serial is really, really long); Carnival of Monsters (Three); The Ark in Space (Four); Pyramids of Mars (Four); City of Death (Four - written by Douglas Adams!); Horror of Fang Rock (Four); The Caves of Androzani (Five); The Five Doctors (stand-in!One, Two, Three, Five and footage taken from an uncompleted Four serial); Dragonfire (Seven); Remembrance of the Daleks (Seven); The Happiness Patrol (Seven); Greatest Show in the Galaxy (Seven); Battlefield (Seven); The Curse of Fenric (Seven - if you only watch one Seven serial, this should be it!); Ghost Light (Seven - this one is confusing and takes multiple watches to understand); Survival (Seven; the final Classic Who serial).
And here are some that everyone always recs but that I either haven't seen or haven't seen in full:
An Unearthly Child (One); The War Games (Two); Inferno (Three); The Horns of Nimon (Four); Genesis of the Daleks (Four); Mark of the Rani (Six).
If you head over to doctoreleven, they're putting together a list of recs for a planned Classic Who weekly rewatch, so you'll find some good suggestions there too. :)
I'm just chiming in to say that "City of Death" is really amazing, includes a Hamlet reference that took me totally off guard and cracked me up, and in general just makes me really happy. Also, it is on Netflix streaming.
