they may have had a sexual relationship. to me it's possible in my interpretation of the characters, it's just that I have a very hard time believing that something like that belongs in the actual show - I mean, it's supposed to be this goofy low budget sci fi show, not "omg I'm in love with an alien," but... well, what can I say. I love the new series and I think it's fabulous. I guess I can't knock whatever changes the writers want to make from the original show.
As for the tv movie, I only saw it one time, and that would be the time it showed on tv first, and I thought that little revalation was totally bizarre. It almost seemed like he was making it up, cause he was kinda weird and disorganized from having just regenerated (and besides doesn't the Doctor need to be in or near the TARDIS to regenerate anyway? So I have trouble accepting anything the movie says...) But then again, the Doctor doesn't usually tell flat out lies about himself. At least not that I can recall.
I always assumed that the humans that mingled were advanced 40th century humans, not us primitive 21st century beasts. In the future I think humans alter their own genetics and do weird science-y stuff in labs so that they can produce offspring with their alien partners. I have no idea where I go that idea, though, certainly not from anything canon. But yes, when a human and an anthropomorphic cat have offspring, they get... kittens :P
But that's not something I thought of, "The Doctor's Daughter" being someone else's creation from his DNA. Hm. That's not a terrible idea...
