Doctor Who: 11 Most Endearing Eleven Moments

1. €œSee ya!€ €œThat€™s cheating!€

18 This one isn€™t traditionally endearing, but for the Doctor it€™s a wonderful encapsulation of his nature. You see, if the Doctor were in Star Wars he would be Han Solo, not Luke Skywalker. He€™s a scoundrel, not a white knight. Sometimes he plays the part of the knight so much that people forget about that. And some writers don€™t get it. But Gaiman knows that the Doctor€™s a scoundrel in his hearts. Seeing the Doctor struggle with the cyberplanner all episode is rough. There€™s a real risk that something bad could happen, and the Doctor wouldn€™t be able to stop it. So seeing his victory, watching him taunt the bad guy, is, dare I say, heartwarming. How does the Doctor defeat the cyberplanner? He cheats.
