The New Doctor (Peter Capaldi)
To be revealed during a live show scheduled for 7pm this Sunday evening on BBC One.
Any speculation ahead of the big reveal? http://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/08/...t-this-sunday/ |
Re: The new Doctor
I want it to be Hugh Laurie..but completely unlikely.;)

Re: The new Doctor
here's the latest odds ,not sure about Peter Capaldi as favourite
Peter Capaldi: 2/1 Ben Daniels: 4/1 Rory Kinnear: 6/1 Ben Whishaw: 10/1 David Harewood: 10/1 http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-en...d-8738402.html |
Re: The new Doctor
I'd also like Benedict Cumberbatch for the part.

Re: The new Doctor
Is this show confirmed?
I know it's the 50th but seems odd doing a live reveal. Cumberbatch wouldn't happen as he is on Moffats other BBC show. I'd prefer an older Doctor, say in his 40s. Update: this has been posted on BBC.co.uk/doctorwho Quote:

Re: The new Doctor
If it wasn't for the "Impossible Girl" conclusion during The Name of The Doctor, i would have put money on Jenna Coleman being the twelfth Doctor.
That said, it is Steven Moffat at the helm, so i still might :D |
Re: The new Doctor
Hang on - what happened to John Hurt?
|
Re: The new Doctor
John hurt has already been the doctor, although we are yet to see it!
I'd prefer an older doctor. Sean Bean would be good. |
Re: The new Doctor
Revealing who it is should be done at the time of the regeneration, not months before.

Re: The new Doctor
That's not practical. Once the new guy is on set, a leak is all but inevitable. AFAIK the casting of a new Doctor has always been announced well ahead of the actor's first appearance in the show.

Re: The new Doctor
Back in the 70's it might have been possible for new doctors to be kept secet. However with Facebook, Twitter and people using mobiles/tablets to take pictures videos means that it would be nigh on impossible to stop a leak to the world of a new doctor's identity.
Whatever happened to Idris Elba? I understood that it was going to be either a black male as the doctor or JLC was going to be the first female doctor. Either way, I won't be watching. Watched a couple of episodes back when Billie Piper was in it and just couldn't get into it. |
Re: The new Doctor
It is vanishingly unlikely that they will cast a female. Despite the tweaks in personality that occur from actor to actor, the Doctor is, has always been, essentially an English gentleman. The show doesn't need stunt casting to make pointless statements about sexual equality. Time Ladies have featured in the show often enough, and the Time Lady companion of the late 70s and early 80s (Romana) was pointedly more capable and highly qualified than the Doctor.

Re: The new Doctor
I only just got used to Matt!
Who will the next one be? No idea but I bet Mr Moffat will make an interesting choice. |
