New Doctor to be revealed on Saturday
|
Since David Tennant announced he was handing in the keys to the TARDIS at the National Television Awards, we've been on 24/7 tenterhooks wondering who new boss Steven Moffat will pick to carry the show into 2010. We're not going to have to wait much longer, as the 11th Doctor will be revealed in a special Doctor Who Confidential airing on BBC One at 5.35pm on Saturday 3 January. The actor stepping into the biggest role on British telly will be giving his (or maybe her) reaction to becoming a Time Lord, in what's likely to be the most watched Confidential of all time. "We are so pleased to have been able to cast this person as the new Doctor," said Head of Drama BBC Wales (and Who producer) Piers Wenger. "We believe the actor is going to bring something very special to the role and will make it absolutely their own – I just can't wait to tell everyone who it is – it has been a nail-biting Christmas trying to keep this under wraps!"

The logical assumption to draw from this would be that the 11th Doctor appeared in a show where Moffat had a lot of control, on eof his own series rather than a show he contributed to, such as Press Gang, Coupling and Jekyll.
Or Curse of the Fatal Death.

I dont particularly think he's a good choice (not because he's black or anything.... just because I dont think there's any 'Doctor-ish' about him).
I hope it's Harry Llyod (for a younger Doctor) or Bill Nighy (for an older, more old-school Doctor).... but I dont think it's gonna happen... :(
It's gonna be Paterson.... you'll see.... With Tennant regenerating on New Years Day 2010 leaving the way for the Eleventh Doctor to make his series debut in March 2010....
C u after the announcement
