"Inter-personal intimate relationship type interaction"? ? ? That sounds to me like you are watching pornography. Since when was dr who the sort of show for inter-personal intimate relationship interaction ? Are we supposed to believe that Ace & Seven were at it? Sixie and Peri? Five and Tegan ? Dr who was never about that. Modern tv writers seem to think every show needs a love angle. It is more a symptom of poor creativity coupled with a lack of an imagination if you ask me. -- https://www.theory11.com/
