The fundamental image of life, of family, of childhood, of survival, is man and woman. Every story, every myth, every image reinforces that. Even the images of the real world reinforce that, because statistically heterosexuality is the norm. It’s the default. It’s the icon. Man/man or woman/woman disrupts a fundamental childhood image. Homophobia does seem to come from some gut instinct that’s beyond the religious or the physical act or whatever. It’s primal, and I think it’s from the pictures. It’s from what we see and what we’re shown. That’s why, in this gay lark, I stress visibility. Change the law, have education classes, do whatever you want, just be seen. I don’t just mean on Pride Marches, because they’re shoved away in an alcove, but I mean everywhere, all the time. I barely ever do an interview without mentioning being gay, and that’s deliberate. We have to become visible, especially to the young, as part of the norm, then the picture starts to develop and widen.

letseyx: Donna has to be in the TARDIS as Doctor #2 appears. So she spends most of the episode with him, right?But hold on - look at your other options - because if Rose is going to spend the rest of her life with Doctor #2, shouldn’t she be with him in the TARDIS as he springs into existence - and they spend the rest of the episode together, riffling off each other, both liking each other. And Doctor #2 is half-human, remember, so he can be more overtly sexualised than the original. Do you see how neat that is? If I don’t take that option, she’ll have to meet Doctor #2 in the last ten minutes. Pretty quick to fall in love. So, right, take that option - but that requires Donna to bond with the hand-in-the-jar, then think no more of it, walk out of the TARDIS, with the original Doctor, to become Davros’ prisoner, leaving the Doctor #2 birth to happen as if she’d had nothing to do with it. That’s wrong. That’s very wrong.[…]The other option: Rose and Donna stay in the TARDIS. Donna creates Doctor #2, while Rose is instantly attracted to him, and all three spend the episode together. Feels wrong, doesn’t it?- Russel T. Davies, the writer’s tale NO THAT DOESN’T FEEL WRONG. That feels so right I feel like I don’t know you anymore because you didn’t choose that last option. THAT WOULD’VE BEEN AMAZING. THIS WAS AN OPTION?
