-Marc Platt does a great job capturing the voices of the characters returning from the show - Romana, Leela, Ace (now going by Dorothee), Andred, Susan and of course, the Doctor. Well, two Doctors really, since the First Doctor also gets significant focus here in the 'flashback'/vision sequences. You can almost hear William Hartnell himself ...

Although never seen onscreen in Doctor Who, the presence of Susan Foreman, the Doctor's granddaughter, immediately confirmed the show's protagonist was romantically involved with another Time Lord before departing Gallifrey. Comments made by the Tenth Doctor - "I'm rubbish at weddings - especially my own" being the most overt - later implied that t...
During William Hartnell's Doctor Whoadventures with Susan, Ian and Barbara, the uncontrollable TARDIS made a stop at the 15th century Aztec Empire, where the time-traveling trio did their best to blend in. Not realizing the gesture was tantamount to a marriage proposal, the Doctor made the classic mistake of offering a kind Aztec woman cocoa, accid...
Following a long period of galactic celibacy, the Doctor rediscovered his romantic mojo during the 1996 Doctor Who TV movie. Controversially, this failed Doctor Who reboot added a love story between Paul McGann's Eighth Doctor and his companion, Dr. Grace Holloway. Whether it was the New Year's Eve atmosphere or the excitement of a dashing new body...
The Doctor Who Time War and its double genocide of the Time Lords and Daleks put something of a dampener on the Doctor's romantic endeavors, but David Tennant's Tenth Doctor picked up where his Eighth incarnation left off. Taking Doctor Whoromances to an entirely new level, the Tenth Doctor gradually fell in love with his first companion, Rose Tyle...
Before the Tenth Doctor realized the love of his regeneration was already traveling alongside him, Tennant's iteration shared a short-lived - from his point of view, at least - romantic tryst with Madame de Pompadour in 18th century France. From the 51st century, the Doctor discovered an alien spacecraft filled with windows into Madame de Pompadour...
Shockingly, Ten replaced Rose Tyler with another young woman from 21st century England - student doctor Martha Jones. Played by Freema Agyeman, Martha was a Doctor Who companion one seasononly, but quickly fell for the handsome alien who saved the world on a weekly basis. The Doctor never felt the same way, still grieving the loss of Rose, and hold...
When the Tenth Doctor used a Gallifreyan chameleon arch to render himself human, his "John Smith" alter ego posed as a teacher in 1913 and became enamored with the nurse Joan Redfern. This Doctor Who relationship stands out uniquely from the others, as while Joan and John were truly in love, Joan and the Doctor were truly not. Many Doctor Wholove i...
Summoned by the Ood ahead of his impending regeneration, the Tenth Doctor revealed he took a few detours along the way, one of which included getting married to Queen Elizabeth I. This event was later shown during the Doctor Who50th anniversary special "The Day of the Doctor," and complicated by the presence of a Zygon impersonating Good Queen Bess...
If the Doctor does have a "one true love," Doctor Who makes River Song unequivocally that person. Primarily the partner of the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors, River Song's timeline-hopping allowed her to know the Doctor better than any of his various spouses. Marrying the grown-up child of two companions may not be ideal TARDIS etiquette, but the che...
Continuing his habit of accidental engagements, Matt Smith's Eleventh Doctor made out with, and then mistakenly got engaged to, Marilyn Monroe in 1950s Hollywood during "A Christmas Carol." Although just a throwaway gag, Marilyn can be heard in the background, confirming she and the Doctor were an item, however briefly. Exactly how the Doctor broke...
