I'm not sure I agree with you about Christopher Eccleston's "rugged masculine edge", but I do agree that it's a shame he was so short-lived - as were a few others too.
It may not have been intended, but the quote unquote came across as a sneer. I take your word for it that it wasn't.
It was merely intended to help specify which part of your previous post I agreed with and which part I did not agree with. In my personal experience, it is a perfectly acceptable and reasonably widely used tool of communication.
However, on a platform where the primary form of communication is via plain text messaging, it is easy to misinterpret or misunderstand the intentions of others.
But it was Christopher Eccleston that that got me watching the 'modern' version. I always thought the 'old' Doctor Who was just so bad it was laughable. Didn't care for Matt Smith and since I do not have cable any longer I haven't had the chance to see Peter Capaldi's Doctor.
Anybody know what happened to the posts (can't remember the posters name, I think triumvirate? was part of the name) that listed their opinion on most of the Doctors?They were posted sometime last night, there were problems with it posting up. I received 6 notifications in my email before I could actually read them here.
Hey Brat. Yeah i couldn't post them up for some reason. I kept getting an error and the formatting was all screwed up. Not exactly sure what it was but i gave up.
But my favorite of all time is Pertwee. And from the newer ones Tennant.

But I did see them. There were 2 of them. Have you notified someone? I just thought it was really weird, because between 7:00 pm (pacific) & 7:30 pm I kept getting notifications (6 in all) of new posts. I was finally able to read them about 7:30 and then today they weren't here? Strange.

I was not bringing your grammar into question. The use of inverted commas over one specified point can denote mockery. Imagine this translated into a face to face dialogue. How would you voice your comment? With a sarcastic inflection? Would you involve hand gestures to indicate inverted commas? Perhaps not, but that is how it would be read aloud naturally. If you had put "he brought a rugged, masculine edge to the doctor" (as opposed to solely my description of the actor) in inverted commas it would have made the world of difference.
You have a good point about it being all too easy to misinterpret the intentions of others on text based communication platforms, thus an innocent comment was mistaken for a subtle form of mockery. Such is the complexity and nuance of the English language. Thank you for clarifying, I won't derail any further.

Neck and neck - David Tennant and Matt Smith as modern Doctors. I too loved Tom Baker, with his scarf. ... Memorable.

That's fair enough, but what's with the sneer quote?

Pardon? A sneer quote?
I have not attributed a negative connotation or emotion to any part of my previous post, so why have you?

Christopher Eccleston. I especially love the episodes where Capt Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) popped in. He was fun.
