The Doctor at Vivid Sydney

RFlagg says...

I for one will be sad to see Smith go after the Christmas special. Perhaps we'll get a female Doctor next round?

EDIT: I'm still going on the assumption here that John Hurt is the "not in the name of the Doctor" Doctor who was in between Paul McGann and Christopher Eccleston, and is the one who destroyed Gallifrey and the Time Lords... if indeed there is anyone between those two, guessing a lot based on the season finale.

The Bechdel Test for Women in Movies

Deano says...

Whatshisface in Fight Club is nameless I think and in one of the best films ever, Withnail and I, "I" played by Paul McGann has no name.
Then there are nameless narrators/protagonists in books as well though I can't think of an example right now.

Her's are just a list of seemingly-relevant points that rely on their simplicity. Who's to say having a character name is always a good thing? So what if women don't talk to one another in a film? Why is that such a good thing? Why is that the measuring stick? And so what if women talk about a man in a film. Perhaps that's what the story is about.
The lines she's drawn are very arbitrary.

Ugh, do you really need this explained?
What major/driving character is nameless in a film or novel?
