"Hell, you can't tell me some of the other companions -- especially one or both of the Romanas -- weren't carrying little torches around for the good Doctor. But there was common sense enough to let it remain as subtext and not go further with things."
Amen. Another reason I really, really want an ugly old guy as the Eleventh Doctor, to nip this whole thing in the bud. I knew the Fourth Doctor and Romana running around Paris and holding hands could possibly have another meaning attached to it, I didn't need it spelled out for me! It was more fun the other way and, you know, it kept the plot, a.k.a. That Thing RTD Just Can't Do, as the first priority!
"See, Beloved Audience? SEE?! If McToonces, The Scottish Cat Who Can Drive A Car can see that they're made for each other, WHY CAN'T YOU?"
Because we're stupid and just don't understand the power of love, McToonces, that mighty steamroller that can crush underfoot all that comes before it. Including any chance of a coherent storyline.
