me three on that! Although I have a few more platonic pairings than just Seven/Ace. I'd also count Three/Jo Grant amoung them too, come to think of it.
BTW, the Doctor's a hell of a lot older than 900! In one of the first novels for no 8 (Vampire Science) he mentions that he's 1200 and something. Also, after the desctruction of Gallifrey, he spent 100 years as an amnesiac on Earth, to recover from the trauma. So I think the 900 comment is just because Russell T Davies hates Paul McGann (or so I've heard) and is trying to ignore the existence of the 8th doctor altogether.
