1. The Runaway Bride
Yes, at it turns out. It really is all about Rose. Nobody expected the Tenth Doctor to get over her untimely departure quickly but his grieving process really shouldn't have taken as long as it did. He was still harping on about her a year later, for God's sake (as Martha Jones well knows!), but his darkest hour yet chimed in the 2006 festive escapade, The Runaway Bride, when he caused - and then watched - the death of the Empress of the Racnoss and the subsequent extinction of her millions of children. Genocide again (d'oh!), but he was in a pretty bad place at this point so perhaps we should just let him off. He hadn't had a proper chance to deal with everything yet, since Donna Noble had literally appeared in the TARDIS seconds after his farewell with Rose. Thank God Donna was there to stop him, though, before things got really out of hand (but, in all seriousness, how worse could the situation have gotten?). The fact she was there to nip his evilness in the bud became a prominent storyline in Series 4 when, in a parallel universe, Donna never met the Doctor, he died killing the Racnoss and it was basically bad news for the human race. So are we supposed to be thankful that the Doctor committed genocide on this occasion? Oh, who even knows anymore?! Yep, you guessed it. And not a single f**k was given. What did you think of this list? Are there any other moments the Doctor gave zero f**ks? Join the conversation in the comments section below.
