The Eleventh Doctor: An Appreciation

Dec 19, 2013 00:44

Or; 11 reasons why I'll be inconsolable on Christmas Day. Because yes, I am stupidly happy about Capaldi. But Eleven's run has been my favourite of New Who by some distance, and that is down in large part to the enormous talents of one Matt Smith.

Please do! I'm keen to see plenty more Eleven love this Christmas. Not that I'm quite ready to say goodbye yet, but I think it'll help.
When it's time to go, remember what you're leaving. Remember the best.

:D Hope it wasn't too ramble-y. I was suddenly overcome with the gloriousness of Eleven and it needed urgent expression.

That aspect is right at the forefront of Elevens's character from the second he pops his head out of the smoking TARDIS in 'The Eleventh Hour', imo. His home from home has just exploded and he doesn't even really know who he is any more- but never mind that, there's a lonely little girl in need of help. Suddenly, we had the sort of show where you can take five minutes out from the plot so our protagonists can eat fishfingers and custard. And that's really lovely.
