I really, really can't believe they'd go that route - mind you, I said that about the baby scenario - not when SM's spent all this time building up River as a romantic interest for the Doctor.
Before this week's episode, I'd have said that just wasn't in the DNA of DW - I don't really buy into the Doctor being asexual and I don't mind a bit of romance for him, but S.E.X has never been used in the show that blatantly, or as a plot device. BUT - as I said, until last ep, I was sure, deep in my gut that they wouldn't go the Rosemary's Baby route either, and I was wrong about that, so...
(If any Doctor was going to be the one going around shagging his companions, it would surely have been Ten, who was sex on legs and who couldn't help attracting that sort of attention from women!)
