* Doctor who Musing: Something I've been thinking about, having just finished watching all the Pertwees (3rd doctor), is that even though the actor is so much older than any of the new who actors, the character really does seem so much younger. here he is, a multiple centuries old Time Lord juvenile delinquent literally grounded for meddling. He enjoys fisticuffs, gadgets, fancy clothes, and unusual vehicles. He is exuberant and optimistic, in a way that he periodically seems to be faking post Time war. Watching Matt smith in the latest episode, it looked so much like him faking the excitement of three or the slightly more mature 4. As annoying as I find the writing under Moffat's helmship, I do give Matt Smith credit for building on what Tennent was doing, for looking like the red coal under ash as the fire is dying down. For making the enthusiasms look like the flaring of a dying star.
