[NAFDA] Spoilers for any and all currently running TV shows. All hardcore spoilage, all the time. No white font.
I did find a story over at the BBC that mentioned these actors:
James Nesbitt
John Simm
David Morrissey
Jennifer Saunders
Billie Piper (!?!)
Catherine Zeta-Jones
as well as Paterson Joseph.
I would think that John Simm, Billie Piper and David Morrissey are ruled out by their recent associations with the show.
I would put a vote in for the guy who played Billy in Blink but I guess he would be out for the same reason as the other ones already having appeared.
I don't know - that character was cool but more incidental than John Simm or Billie Piper for sure and possibly David Morrissey.
(And having played somebody who only thought he was the Doctor to have him then actually be the Doctor would be confusing.)
I guess he would be out for the same reason as the other ones already having appeared.
Not necessarily, because if that was the case, then Paterson Joseph wouldn't be under such high consideration.
They've brought on one-off actors back to play larger parts later (Gwen, Martha), so Billy wouldn't be out. Billie, however...although, Romana consciously regenerated to look like whatever-her-name-was, so it would be possible, I guess. I can't really imagine the Doctor choosing to be female, though.
I'm with sumi, though, on Morrissey.
Oh! I couldn't read the article from my phone; I didn't realize who Paterson Joseph was. In that case, I reiterate my desire for Billy. To be the next Dr. Well, and just in general. I'm trying to remember who Roderick was. CE seems like so long ago.
Oh man. I loved Keen Eddie and Julian would rock. What a great thought! Now I'm remember every ascerbic, kinky, smug, marginally clueless moment of his time on KE and transposing it into the Tardis.
Yep. That would soooo work.
Alas, I fear, he is probably too obscure/off the radar.
Sigh.
Hyh. I'm actually looking forward to the transition, whomsoever it may be. Which says a lot about my massive case of the DTs having satisfactorily resolved.
A local UK paper has said that all of a sudden odds on Matt Smith have jumped to 5/2. Could just be wishful thinking though, since he's a local boy for this paper.
Matt Smith?
I can't find anything yet. Darn the luck.
It's Matt Smith.
I'm watching the live feed.
