Age-gap issue, a bit too much to be safe for my personal taste. Nine was better looking than Ten IMHO, even without the imposed RoseLuv issue. As Mr Pertwee and Ms Sladen agreed with me all those years of fandom ago, the formula contains NO SEX IN THE TARDIS and Donna/Ten was better because of that even in ironic contradiction of the expectation raised by Martha.
Young bloke chased by older man, just not fashionable enough for slash? Going back to the XFiles Mulder/Skinner it always had to be explained away.
But I should be moderate and follow your example and see him in action before judging things so emphatically.X
Except Gareth (and Ianto) is even younger than him, and that isnt a problem for anyone, so somehow I think people can get over this one - and he will be a couple years older by the time his series actually airs.
We will see! Generally I am quite impressed by BBC casting, so I'm optimistic.

I reserve all comments until I've seen him in action. ;)
