I was thinking about Chris Addison, but couldn't remember his name.

 

[Square12]

Oooooh I have an idea, lets get reallllllyyy screwy with the wibbly wobbly timey wimeyness and get either Alex Kingston or Georgia Moffet.
Btw Adrian lester was also in quite an interesting series called bone kickers

 

[Bouncy Castle]

I do hope you mean interesting in the ironic sense?

Bonekickers (or Bonkers as it was referred to on the BBC Boards!) was a load of old tosh, but the thread on the BBC about it was hilarious to read!

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Neil Gaiman wants an unknown.

[The Mad Collector]

Now here's an idea, how about Neil Gaiman as the Doctor?

 

[Bouncy Castle]

I'll put it to him on Twitter!!

 

[Penfold]

If you're going down that route then Stephen Briggs gets my vote.

 

[The Mad Collector]

Neil has that slightly manic look that would be good for Doctor Who and he's definitely a fan.

 

[Tonyblack]

Yes, but can he act?*








*I realise that acting ability isn't strictly necessary, or even desirable in Doctor Who, but still!

 

[The Mad Collector]

Interesting story in the Telegraph

[Tonyblack]

It's official! The next Doctor is going to be a Helpline!!







Thank you Mock the Week.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

So he can be shaken but not stirred.

 

[Jack Remillard]

Well, now we know. Now we know. </Mitchell and Webb>

 

[Quatermass]

Well, the next Doctor is going to be Malcolm [EFF!]ing Tucker.

 

[The Mad Collector]

In the film World War Z Peter Capaldi played a W.H.O. Doctor

 

[Willem]

Pretty happy with the choice of Peter Capaldi! Bit older than the last couple, interesting to see where that will lead.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

He's 55.

 

[Quatermass]

He's 55.

So was William Hartnell when he took on the role. Capaldi is maybe a few months younger.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

At least there's less chance of the Doctor/companion snogging now.
