That however is what draws in modern audiences. The will they won't they factor. In a way that's how the X-Files lasted ten series.

That's also a problem i actually have with the classic stuff. Look at Jamie, a battle hardened highlander, don't tell me he never ravaged Victoria in the TARDIS broom cupboard once or twice.

Exactly how many times has the Doctor fallen in love at any opportunity? He clearly loved Rose and Madame de Pompadour (Who wouldn't) but that's it. Sure Smith got married to save the world but no one really knows who Riversong actually is. That series was also the worst series of modern Who not withstanding a few excellent episodes.

Finally if Time Lords are asexual please explain Susan.
