Police Chases

My favorite classes in school would require us to think and debate certain topics. One topic that I remember clearly was:

Would you want police to chase after your stolen car?

Everyone in the class, except for me and one other girl, thought this was a great idea. She and I said no. A car can be replaced but once cars are moving at high speeds, then anything could happen and we didn't want innocent people to get hurt.

However, there are now some areas that don't allow police chases at all.

I agree. I'm not sure why everyone else seems to prefer 10 over 9 so much. He was around longer, I suppose, and he's quite good looking. Oh well.

See, I always thought Eccleston was more handsome than Tennant, he has a much more interesting face. But. Pretty tends to always be more popular.

They are both great actors, though I did think Eccleston was so much better at the darker scarier stuff. His tortured damaged Doctor was much more believable to me than when Tennant tried to do that.

Eccels is more interesting looking, certainly. But as you say, Tennant is pretty. And some people thing Eccles's ears stick out too much to be attractive.

I agree that they're both very talented actors. And I also agree that Eccleston was better at the dark stuff. I liked it when he was happy, too, but that was a lot more rare. (Empty Child and Doctor Dances are my favorite episodes.)

Yes, Empty Child and Doctor Dances were spectacular. I've watched so many episodes from that first season time and time again.

Dalek is another particular favourite.

Everybody Lives! Makes me cry. Also, they introduced Captain Jack, who is just awesome. And the doctor dances with Rose. *loves* Plus, the Mummy/son story was awesome-sauce.

I always liked Captain Jack a lot more in Who than in Torchwood. But then, I never really managed to get into Torchwood.

I'm exactly the same way. Torchwood was always a little too out there for me with the pterodactyl and the m-preg and all. Felt a little like someone filmed fanfic.
