I remember staying at Ty Rosa, Cardiff's gayest guesthouse, and discussing JE with the couple who ran the place...how there was maybe a subtext in the Doctor making another self and sending him into an alternative universe where he wouldn't compromise his image...and they agreed with me that it was a classic example of staying in the closet. And I really will feel that if RTD doesn't come through on this he's letting down himself and all the other people who've cheered on what remains TV's most gay-friendly series, in the UK at least. I feel that if RTD is gonna talk the talk he has to walk the walk - the Doctor has to COME OUT for God's sake! You don't have to be gay to feel that very strongly - it's supposed to be a show about discovering your potential and living life authentically, whoever you are. If the Doctor stays in the closet being luvvie and huggy but denying himself a meaningful relationship, it will amount to an act of gross hypocrisy, and that's what upsets me most.
