8 Doctor Who Moments The Creators Don't Like
4. ...And He Also Regrets The Flesh And Stone Bedroom Scene
The Time Of Angels and The Beast Below aside, Moffat's least-favourite Doctor Who moment (that he wrote) is one that he's talked about on numerous occasions.
At the end of Flesh And Stone (which, incidentally, directly follows on from The Time Of Angels, and is only a few episodes after The Beast Below), the Doctor takes Amy Pond back to her house after defeating the Angels and saying goodbye to River Song.
Here, Amy makes a move on the Doctor and actively tries to have sex with him, only for the Doctor to reject her advances and whisk her off to see her husband-to-be, Rory.
Moffat's reasoning for writing this scene is that Amy had just survived a near-death experience, and this - combined with her long-standing attraction towards the Doctor - prompted her to throw caution to the wind, and just go for it.
The idea for the scene checks out, but according to Moffat, the fact that it was executed in a comedic manner was completely the wrong decision:
“There’s a brilliant scene to be written there, and I entirely avoided writing it. I played it for laughs, and it was so wrong.”
From this point onwards, Amy's sexual attraction towards the Doctor was mostly swept under the rug, presumably because Moffat didn't like how this scene turned out.
