Oh, I didn't realize Rose said "Doctor what?" I really like that!
And yeah, he was going for an "everybody lives" sort of day. He didn't quite get there, alas.
You're right, maybe Billie Piper leaving put a cramp in whatever they were going to examine with her lingering Bad-Wolf-ness. But I do feel like it gets raised in T&C and then never brought up again until S4.
You know, on the subject of guns, you're very right, it's not like the Doctor really is a pacifist. It reminds me of the part in AGMGTW when he says something like, "I'm not a good man. Good men don't need as many rules as I have." Or something like that. But it's very true. He doesn't carry a gun not necessarily because he doesn't like guns, but because he recognizes how tempting it would be to use it.
The power Rose has over the Doctor is astonishing, so the Doctor tries not to think about it too much.
I like your Dean/Jack comparison. I never thought about that before!
The "two penises" idea first came to me from Jackie Tyler, I confess.
At a certain point, the Doctor and David Tennant begin to blend together, don't they? ;-)
