ian chesterton and barbara wright are the blueprint because the doctor was initially just this old, kinda tetchy scientist who thought humans were stupid and also annoying, but then he accidentally kidnaps these two teachers because they followed his granddaughter home after realizing her address was an empty lot and growing worried for her. they cared enough to get personally involved beyond what was technically required of them.
throughout their adventures he watches as barbara defends ancient civilizations, remaining kind and empathetic in the face of violence and pain. he sees ian risk everything time and time again to get barbara and susan home safe. he watches them convince others to stand up and fight for what’s right. he sees the way they never give up, never give in, and above all, always try their best to do the right thing.
they don’t always get it right! but they never stop trying, and slowly, ever so slowly, we see the doctor change from a man who holds himself above and apart to the quipping, quirky hero we are so well acquainted with in new who.
the doctor has always modeled his morals on the humans he travels with. they are the ones he turns to when he begins to fly too far above it all. so really, we owe the existence of the doctor to ian and barbara: the first of so many. they deserve more love.

Random Doctor Who Facts You Might Not Know, Part 2
While attending Jago and Litefoot's knighting ceremony, the Sixth Doctor had to go in disguise because of the grudge Queen Victoria had against him, which was started by the Tenth Doctor.
Once, the TARDIS jumped a time track, leaving the Tenth Doctor at Powell Estate for a week. During this time, he lived with Mickey.
A team called the "Plastic Surgeons," comprised of the Tenth Doctor, Rose Tyler, and a lone Auton, won a Mannequin Challenge competition.
The Shopkeeper from the SJAs may have been an incarnation of the Corsair according to RTD.
The War Chief once had an aborted regeneration, which left him deformed, his past and future selves joined together. He had a conjoined dual skull and an extraordinary set of limbs.
The Third Doctor took Jo back in time in an attempt to kill that same would-be-dictator baby but also failed to do so after seeing his Sixth try the same (some of you already know where I am going with this).
After being irradiated on Metebelis III, the Third Doctor was stuck in the time vortex for ten years, dying very slowly.
Ian and Barbara's son became a pop singer.
The Eleventh Doctor once traveled with a robotic copy of a Tyrannosaurus rex named Kevin. His tiny arms made him unable to help pilot the TARDIS.
Kamelion and the TARDIS had a child together.
Missy killed the incarnations that came both before her (Saxon Master) and also after her (the Lumiat).
The Venusian Lullaby sounds like God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen because Jago and Litefoot sang it on Venus to soothe the Shanghorn.
The First Doctor caused High Tutor Albrecht to regenerate by experimenting with a perigosto stick and a temporal feedback loop.
The First Doctor rigged a drinks machine to produce mercury during his time at the Academy to experiment with, nearly causing his professor to regenerate.
The First Doctor's dorm room had posters in it and became timelocked after an experiment gone wrong. No one ever figured out how to get rid of the timelock.
Basically, the Doctor was a menace even as a student, but everyone knew that.
Part 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28

Some perfectly normal Doctor Who factoids
The Master is canonically Rasputin.
Time Lords can all levitate and fly. The Doctor seems to forget this.
The Doctor is canonically Merlin.
There are two different explanations for the Loch Ness Monsters.
The Doctor once had a talking penguin as a companion.
Vampires are a canon species.
Tegan and Nyssa have such a strong queer subtext to their friendship that there is a wiki page online dedicated to it.
Speaking of Nyssa, she once got turned into a vampire and became obsessed with eating Tegan.
Ace McShane once fell in love with a cat-girl.
The Doctor is both a semi-mythical figure in the founding of time lord society, as well as also being the reason for the time lords having regenerative abilities. They are also just a run-of-the-mill time lord who ran away from Gallifrey. All of these are equally canon.
The Doctor once broke the fourth wall to wish the viewers a Merry Christmas.
The Third Doctor knows various martial arts.
It's implied that Time Lords cannot get drunk on alcohol unless they drink ginger beer beforehand.
The Eighth Doctor was once sentenced to death and promptly demanded to die in the nude.
The Doctor effectively kidnapped their first companions.
Time Lords reproduce via a technology known as looms.

Last night I finally finished all the Classic Companions in my Doctor Who series. Decided to put them all together to see how they looked, and I rather like it! A future poster, maybe?
(Before anyone asks about Liz, she's on the as-yet-unfinished UNIT poster. I haven't forgotten her. Please, I've had so many people ask me about Liz)

Happy 60th anniversary Doctor Who
"Let me get this straight. A thing that looks like a police box, standing in a junkyard, it can move anywhere in time and space?"
