DOCTOR WHO??

Post by satman83 »

26-year-old Matt Smith, who played Danny Foster on a 2007 British TV show called "Party Animals," will take over the title role on "Doctor Who," probably on the next "Who" Christmas special.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7808697.stm


From the U.K.'s Guardian:

Tennant's replacement will be unveiled in an edition of Doctor Who Confidential to be broadcast on BBC1 at 5.35pm on Saturday, 3 January, featuring an interview with the actor who is to be the 11th doctor in the long-running BBC1 sci fi drama, successfully revived by the corporation in 2005.

The best-known name the Guardian claims could take over the role of The Doctor is busy movie actor Chiwetel Ejiofor, the soft-spoken, self-proclaimed “monster” of “Serenity.” Ejiofor’s other credits include “Love, Actually,” “Inside Man,” “Melinda and Melinda,” “Children of Men,” “American Gangster” and “Redbelt.” A Black Doctor Who? i doubt the BBC would have the balls for that :(

Well nobody thought David Tenant would make a very good doctor but he did brilliantly. Hopefully this guy can do just as well. To be honest I'm looking forward to the new series of Torchwood more than Doctor Who.

Torwchood is amazing.


But both Doctor Who and Torchwood are made by BBC Wales so no wonder they are amazing. Us Welsh people now how to make a good show :)
Ooh, I got a sexy ex-staff title!

Maybe if he shaves his head...

I liked Tennant - he had some kind of curious ferocious insanity (yeah, that's how I put it) but nothing like Baker or Pertwee!

We'll see, I'll give this guy a chance. But my wife isn't going to like it!
If faith is a crutch, I'm not limping anymore.
