The lonely god of Gallifrey
The Tenth Doctor is fiercely compassionate, endlessly curious, and intensely romantic. However, beneath his pinstriped suit and converse sneakers lies the terrifying wrath of a man who believes he is the last of his kind.
David Tennant’s iconic performance defined the modern era of the show. He seamlessly balances rapid-fire comedy with devastating, heartbreaking tragedy, capable of saving a planet with a smile and destroying a government with a single word.
His era is widely considered the golden age of modern Doctor Who. The Tenth Doctor’s ultimate, heartbreaking realization that "I don’t want to go" remains one of the most powerful moments in science fiction television.
