I'm still thinking about this. By every measure I can think of, my favourite of the lot is Captain Jack - so why do I feel impelled to give the Doctor equal billing? And, like you, I prefer Eccleston. But even if the choice were Barrowman/Eccleston and not Barrowman/Tennant, I'd feel the difficulty in choosing. I want to pick them as matched sets.
Do you mean Gareth David-Lloyd? I know a lot of fans find him incredibly sexy. Sometimes he comes close... usually when he's fighting or weeping. But there are numerous characters in Torchwood I find much sexier than Ianto, which is, objectively viewed, a pity. Under the circumstances. (Examples: Gwen, Captain John, Swanson, Martha.)
Rescuing dogs and old ladies does make Barrowman seem awfully attractive, it's true...

Oh my goodness yes. Whimper.
