I think it's funny how people who've never seen him in anything, already have such a strong opinion of him. I'm happy enough to wait and see what he's like in 2010 before I judge.
Ditto that. (People should have learned their lesson after badmouthing Catherine Tate)
Of course, I've never heard of the guy, but that only means I've never seen his work. Come on, Do people really think that Steven Moffat a.k.a. (Mr. Hugo) would pick someone he didn't think could pull off his concept of The Doctor?
Plus... it's not like whatever contract he signed doesn't already include a clause stating in the event of European Revolt, you will be Regenerated.
Everyone remain calm.
