Letter from the TARDIS
Okay, so it might seem a little strange to have this picture of Ten and Donna starting out on their travels along with a romantic sonnet that mentions Rose. But I've been searching a while to find an expression of where Ten (the original, that is) is up to these days. Handy is a different matter - I wouldn't rule out writing him, but he's not ( Read more... ) -
