He wears a brown coat.

Fandoms... crossing...

[arib.livejournal.com]

Well, kinda.

I think he looks a bit like John Constantine. Or a cross between Constantine and Peter Davison's Doctor.

Have I told you that I'm completely hooked? On three episodes? Why the frelling frack aren't they showing this in the US?

[arib.livejournal.com]

Good question.

Should I mention that I have the rest of the season, or would that just be mean? ;-)

[farwing.livejournal.com]

But...I could come over to your house and watch them. Right? *casts a pleading look*

[arib.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. I can burn 'em to VCD's or summat.

i have to knit 2 dr who scarves from season 12.
it amazes me how long that show has been on. longer than the simpsons even!

ps the new dr who is definatly hotter :P

[arib.livejournal.com]

Hotter than the scarf wearing guy? Definitely. Hotter than the last guy? I think that might be up for debate.

[sicklipstick.livejournal.com]

Now that's what a "Doctor" should look like. I didn't like the previous one. I thought he looked too...alpha male? The Doctor should look like a goof...until he hits you with his presence. Companions follow the Doctor not because he's good looking, but because he seems to know where he's going...or at least seems intent on getting lost quickly.

Companions follow him because otherwise they're left alone in scary, creepy, or just plain boring places...not because he looks good in a leather jacket. Now the companions *are* supposed to look good in a leather jacket :)

I think Ace was the only companion that pulled off the leather jacket look. :-)

Also, I think that Eccleston captured a lot of the "Doctor" personality, if not the actual image.
