I'm really into large noses, but Eccleston's ears are just totally charming. He makes them look like something everyone should want.
Me, too, on all of that. I love that he's so proud of them, really, "They remind me who I am when I shave in the morning." I think that's one of the reasons he's so sexy - he's completely comfortable with his body. There is a lot of architectural beauty there, but a lot of it is the way he carries himself and his expressivity.
I never believe anyone is too old for anyone.
I feel the same way - it seems an arbitrary obstacle, like race or gender. The only time I find it squicky is if there's a clear power differential, but then again, you can't always tell what the internal dynamics are. For instance, I think Nine and Rose balance each other beautifully. Ten and Rose bothered me, because I felt like he closed himself off more, and I can't shake the feeling that he was more interested in having her adoration than having her.
I don't even like Lynda much, but that scene always chokes me up a little.
I have a weird relationship with Lynda. I don't particularly like her as a character, but I loved her interaction with the Doctor. I liked who he was with her. And the moment where Eccleston kills me like no other is that momet when he "hears" Lynda's death in PotW. The expression on his face is just...
But Eccleston is sexy, period. I'm sure I had some special aspect of his sexiness in mind when I said that.
