Part 8 UnCancelled
In 2005 BBC decided it was time to un-cancel Doctor
Who. There was no introduction of the
Doctor’s character or regeneration. They gave no background in the first story
but they did choice a familiar “monster” for the first story, the Autons. This Doctor was no longer child-like and
innocence. He was a quick witted action star
along the lines of James Bond and Ethan Hunt from M:I. He dressed in black leathers and spoke with a
Northern Accent (everywhere has a north).
He had serious romantic interests in his “companion” now a true leading
lady. He even had romantic interest in
men. There are rumors that this is why
Christopher Eccelston left after one year.
He supposedly didn't like the direction the story line was headed. These were never confirmed. He just opted not to renew his contract. The new series gives a second new permanent
character in the “person” of the TARDIS.
It seems to have a life of it’s own. It opens to show all of space and
time to Rose. She cannot handle this
information or it will burn out her human brain. The Doctor kisses her and absorbs it and
causes himself to regenerate. This also
sets up the Doctor to have all the information in the universe.
