As a massive fan during the Tom Baker years, I've never really been able to get into the newest stuff. Did not like the "action hero" style.

You'd probably like the new chap more than the previous doctors in New Who. The previous 3 were kind of like knights in shining armor (especially Matt and David), where as Capaldi is more akin to a grumpy old man that begrudgingly helps people because of a twisted sense of morality. He helps because he thinks he's 

A recent episode was particularly controversial because he (not really a spoiler, but i'll blank it anyway) downright refuses to help, saying sometimes humanity needs to sort out its own shit.
