in which Ten is charmingly sexist and ageist
Elisabeth Sladen passed away one year ago today. In her honor, today is an all-Sarah Jane day on doctorwhogifs. You are very much missed, Lis.

Donna will always be my favourite.
the companion who couldn’t stay and the doctor who didn’t want to go :(
holy COW I LOVE THIS
Donna forever
The Doctor series 1 —> The ‘Timelord Victorious’ Doctor series 4
don’t worship me, I’d be an enormous dickweed
“You’re a rather special one, aren’t you?”
“That’s a bit of an exaggeration, Doctor.”
“Oh? And why do you say that?”
“Nothing special about me, really. I’m just here if people need me.”
“And tell me, Molly Hooper: How does this make you anything but special?”
the things I would do to see this
okay, it’s time for a game of Let’s Pretend Hannah Is Executive Director of Doctor Who For Just A Second
Picture this:
Lou Brealey as an alien from a planet WAY ahead of ours in terms of gender equality (she’d be all over it, don’t even pretend like she wouldn’t) and another female companion from a less progressive setting? Maybe a Roman woman, omg.
Or she could play somebody from the Baroque era, and we could get Amara Karan (Rita from The God Complex) back as the progressive character (I’m shying away from having a PoC being the less feminist character since, you know, not a good power dynamic there, too much potential for caricature).
basically can we just get two ladies who are buddies and don’t really care about the Doctor in That Way?
#molly hooper is the best companion #she wouldn’t even run off
“Molly, why are you still here?”
“You… you told me not to wander off.”
“Oh. Well. That’s strange. I mean, usually I tell them not to wander off, but they never actually listen. Are you sure you’re human?”
aaaaaawwwwwww
First, I traced (OH THE HORROR) a picture of David Tennant (furthest right)
Then I tried to learn from it! (this is basically the only thing that legitimizes tracing)
Shit I learned:
it is difficult to extrapolate what a face will look like at 3/4 if you have only examined the side.
David Tennant’s hair is made of miracles and wonder.
His lips follow that same weird pattern (from the side at least) of very straight, very small upper lip, and big pouty lower lip that Benedict Cumberbatch’s lips follow, but their noses are different, and Ben has no chin.
That skinny little neck is thicker than I had previously thought, but it’s fun to caricature him with a pencil neck because of that teenage-boy Adam’s apple.
A really grand illustration of the tenth Doctor for an old friend. The lighting was a lot of fun to play with, I love the RTD-era console.
roach’s art makes me want to roll about in agony at how fucking beautiful it is. dat lighting. dat likeness. Dat sexy console.
