i've just pause listening to VotD commentary, and RTD julie and Phil all mention how we barely EVER see the doctor eat, and RTD said there's bound to be a discussion board on this somewhere...so here it is..does the doctor eat tmuch?? i think he seems like the type who can eat seemingly forever, and never get full, or fat. What do you think?

Well, we see the Third Doctor munching his way through sandwiches in "The Sea Devils" (I think), the Fourth chomping loads of jelly babies throughout his tenure, and the Tenth feasts on Christmas dinner in "The Christmas Invasion", with Queen Victoria (possibly on ham, although we don't see it) in "Tooth And Claw", those little cheesy biscuits (not sure on their exact name) in "School Reunion", cake in "The Idiot's Lantern", a fingerful of marmalade and a cake with silver balls on top in "Fear Her", vol-au-vents in "The Lazarus Experiment", and a pear in "Human Nature". He also has cups of tea!
I think it depends on the regeneration to be honest with you. The Tenth seems to eat a lot more than his previous incarnations...

Don't forget the 'smart' fries from School Reunion! ^^ And if you count it, Nine was going to dinner with Margaret Slitheen although he didn't eat 'cause she was too busy poisoning everything. xD

I'd say he eats quite a bit really... but then he also spends alot of his time running, so i suppose he has to get some of his energy from somewhere.
he looks so cute while he's eating though xd

Mind you, they wouldn't have had much of an effect on the Doctor... I wasn't counting the Ninth Doctor's abortive meal with Blon for exactly that reason. Same as I didn't invite the invitation to dinner which Jackie offers him in "World War Three".

In 'The Empy Child' (or the other half), Nine sits down to have a dinner with the orphaned kids at that house. ^^ Does that count? And if you think about it, both Blon and Nine had drinks, and that should at least say he was going to drink it. rolleyes

He didn't get to eat anything in "The Empty Child" either because he got too busy chatting then Nancy took his dinner off him because he took two pieces of meat...

In Sound of Drums he eats some chips with Martha and Jack, and he eats in a few books (more chips in Feast of the Drowned)

Wait a second, I think in Fear Her the Doctor was eating something, towards the end of the episode, and then again in Lazuras (sp) he said Oh I love Nibbles, or something along those lines its a bit foggy.

Yeah, He does eat a lot in the books- especially in The Nightmare of Black Island he ate like 2 full English breakfasts and some ice cream in about 2 hours. Though I'm not to sure...
And the start of Wetworld basically has to do with eating breakfast.
Ten's the glutton of the bunch. XD

In the EDAs, Eight used to get so busy brooding he forgot to eat, so he lost weight and his companions sometimes got concerned, and there was one time he got imprisoned and ended up an utter bag of bones... so I guess the Doctor does need to eat once in a while.
But I've always gotten the impression that he doesn't need much to eat. Ten seems to eat only when he feels like it. He mostly just snacks.

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but he ate an Buffalo wing in Voyage of the Damned. Not much, but then he was inturrupted as usual.

tennantsbutterfly I think it depends on the regeneration to be honest with you. The Tenth seems to eat a lot more than his previous incarnations... Heh..maybe he eats more because they have longer episodes to fill, and want to make him seem...more human? More realistic? if you think about it, the old episodes were short...and would ahve beene expensive. Wouldn't it have been a waste to have part of that gone to just watch someone eat? Lol, I can't believe we're talking about this...
