I would have liked to have seen the War Doctor getting his hands dirty.

And I would have liked to have seen the other baddies of the Time War.

It just seemed like a war... too wimey not timey enough.

I'm sure one of the reasons they showed McGann regenerating into a young Hurt was to give us another few hundred years of Doctor stories in book or comic form. I think it would be interesting, I imagine even a "warrior" Doctor would have difficulty getting his hands dirty.
