You know, I think it does help that I'm American and thus neatly avoided most of the Rose publicity. I didn't feel as though she was forced on me at all. She was just there, on the show, being all Rose-ish and likable.
Sometimes I wonder what it'd be like I was coming at this show new and stuff. I don't know if I'd like it if I did though. It'd come down to Rose, I think. She's a bit Buffylike for me generally? Not really the character-type I tend to latch onto.
Also, I really want to see an Ace episode. I know I've got one somewhere in the piles of tapes that I was lent, and I very much want to see what the fuss is about (though if she twists her ankle, I'm so crying foul -- I was so looking forward to meeting Sarah Jane in Five Doctors and then she fell down the wimpiest hill ever and had to be yanked up by a car. I was disappointed and disillusioned, let me tell you).
omg i hate when Sarah falls in that! People say it's playing up the cliche on purpose BUT STILL. No fair. :(
I recall one ankle-twist for Ace, but she had just taken out a Dalek with a baseball bat. I believe Ace holds the record on "fewest screams" though, if that helps?
