It is a good gif, I approve. :) And I've no idea where the picture is from, I found it on Google. (I'm a baaaaaad lazy person.)
And holy cats in the cradle us that shot SEXY and there is so much communicated in that mutual look, in the slight tilt in Vasta's head. And you don't even know what they're saying. *g* (The things Moffat gets away with. It goes straight over the kids' heads of course, but oh my.)
Ok, granted the two of them are meant to be as attractive as possible to the contemporary audience (and putting women in buttoned vests is ironically an excellent way to show off their figures - we look less mannish, not more so in them). Usually they're in Victorian dresses (which are also flattering of course).
But The Gaze is not exclusive to gender, - and I like what I see! (there are websites devoted to this couple, right?) I should think so! (But avoid spoilers. Don't go looking!)
Which seasons/which Doctor are they on? Eleventh Doctor. The show isn't back on air until the autumn (S8 - August, I think), so now would be the perfect time to catch up! Start with (New Who) S5 - the first episode is called The Eleventh Hour (Eleven's first episode). Vastra & Jenny don't turn up until S6, but the Silurians (Vastra is a Silurian, other people have probably mentioned this) are (re-)introduced in S5.
ANYWAY. Have a go at The Eleventh Hour. See if you like it. (There are only 13 episodes per season - plus a Christmas Special - so it won't take you forever to watch. Going back and watching all the other Doctors is of course a different matter. *g*)
