Well I have watched the first disc, and I have found Eccleston to be passable as the Doctor.
Still not a patch on THE Baker or Tennant in my eyes!

Bit pissed off that there was no regeneration scene!

Watching an interview Eccleston did on a tv show (in the bonus features), I got the belief that this was just a means to an end for him, and he had absolutely no intention of sticking round from the offset.
The fact he was never a fan, also speaks volumes about his commitment to the project.
