So do you think that the Doctor never had a wife/sexual relationship that would have produced the boy or girl who would become Susan's parent?
No no, that's not what I'm saying at all. I'm more saying that regardless of what that situation is/was, it doesn't have to influence the sexuality or lack thereof of the character now, given passage of large amounts of time and regeneration. I think it's entirely okay to take it the way you took it, but that's not necessarily too different from saying "Okay, if Susan's his actual granddaughter, it had to have happened at least once." Which is sort of where I've always been on the issue, and that's where I've always been quite content to leave it.
Like I said, they can be having no sex at all, or wild orgies--I really don't care as long as I don't have to see it or hear about it ;) (And that mind-bendy idea of yours just made me make those Beaker-like distress noises!!)
Sounds like your reasons for figuring the crowd would disappear were similar to why I figured it would be the torchbearer, which is a conclusion I drew before we got to the 4 billion family members ;)
Did you see someone put together a petition for David Tennant to light the torch in 2012? Some days I just want to make people put their heads down on their desks for a while...
