Ummmm!

I grew up with Dr Who, in the 60's and 70's. He was Asexual, with no romantic overtones. So the new breed with all the companions in love with him does kind of leave me cold. I like Donna, cos that is not there, I didn't like River, and I hated Rose with a passion. While I did like Martha, I would've preferred The Doctor to be back to his old self, and above all that. Not pining after Rose!

So I really do not ship The Doctor. I would ship Jack, but not with The Doctor. I know he has to be up-dated to appeal to a new generation of viewer, and maybe they do want romance, but old Dr Who fan here, and, for me, he is Asexual. No matter who they get to portray him.

Same with Owen, he is too selfish to be in a relationship! Or now he is with Tosh forever. *sigh*

You know what really annoys me? The way that Tennant is reckoned to be Doctor number 10.

Either the film versions shouldn't count (which is what I believe, cos if he hasn't been on the telly then he isn't the Doctor) which makes him Nine or, if the film versions do count, he should be Eleven. Just cos children weren't old enough to have seen the original films doesn't mean they have the right to fuck up the numbering of regenerations. So there!

I get annoyed with the high-handled way they are changing The Doctor. I know they have to up-date him to appeal to a new generation of viewer, but it is my childhood they are mucking with. We grew up with The Doctor, and have fond memories of him from way back!

Exactly, the Doctor is ours not theirs!
