Who News

In amongst the teasing photos from the set, the Doctor Who website slipped this little nugget about the cast:

So Rose will have a boyfriend.  I'm guessing either the first story will be about the Doctor's first meeting with Rose, at the end of which she effectively leaves him for the Doctor.  Or the other possibility is that Mickey will be travelling with them, which seems unlikely as it doesn't fit the established Who methodology ... the perception is that the show is about the Doctor travelling with a single female companion (though in fact this arrangement was not by any means constant).  Personally, I'd be in favour of his coming along precisely because it breaks that particular mould.

I hope at some point, whilst the Doctor and Rose are casually walking down the street, he suddenly leaps on a passer-by, beats them to death and then justifies it with something like "if he'd have lived, the Cybermen would have overrun earth in five years".

It'd make me happy.

With violence all around him, he is a man of peace. He is never cruel, or cowardly.
