5'ish Doctors Sequel in the works

Great, as long as they don't outstay their welcome, although hilarious it could become very old very quickly.
I'm cool with this. Hopefully they get a decent microphone this time. 
It's the closest we'll ever get to seeing Classic Doctors on screen ever again, so I'll take it. If it's all real-world stuff, I'm guessing that they'll be trying to crash Capaldi's premiere or something. He's too young for the part in their minds, obviously.

Bring it. I'm definitely interested in more.
I also would love to see Paul McGann to show up on Game of Thrones. Who could he play? Hm...

Awesome.
McGann would've been a better Mance Rayder than Ciaran Hinds, IMHO. In coincidence corner, McGann was the original Sharpe but broke a leg playing football and was thus replaced by Ned Stark himself.
Might he make a decent Jon Connington?

I do wonder what McGann's take on Richard Sharpe would have been, but after Sean Bean made it his own it's really hard to imagine, like thinking of Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones!
Now, the gang attempting to sabotage Capaldi's filming would be a great line for them to take in a 5-ish Doctors II.
I didn't find it difficult to imagine McGann in the first run of Sharpe novels (Eagle through Waterloo). McGann was a better fit physically for the character Cornwell wrote.
The novels that Cornwell wrote after, though, are clearly influenced by Bean. Cornwell dedicated one of the books to Bean, Sharpe's backstory is altered slightly to account for Bean's accent, and Sharpe's physical description changes to match Bean.
When BBC Books started doing the big-name hardcovers, I had the strange hope that they would contract Bernard Cornwell to write a Doctor Who meets Sharpe novel, starring the eighth Doctor. I'd love to read something like that.
One of the sample adventures for the Crucible 7 Doctor Who RPG has the Doctor, Amy and Rory arrive in the Spanish Peninsular, to hear a knock at the door. Answering it, they find a small rag-tag group of the 95th Rifles, who knocked on the door as they noticed the TARDIS signs were in English!
I loved The Five(ish) Doctors, and can't wait to see what they have in mind for a sequel! 
Oh yes! Should we infer from Paul McGann talking about it that he'll be in it? Yeah, I know, not that big a deal if he is, he was in the first one. But still cool all the same, IMO.
I always imagined, if he'd been in the Reboot, the scene between him and the 80's Doctors would've been something like this:
"Hello, I'm Peter Davison - the Fifth Doctor."
"Colin Baker - Old Sixie here."
"Sylvester McCoy, the SEVENTH Doctor."
"Go fuck yourself."
Obvious riff from X-Men: First Class? Sure. But fitting? Definitely.

Just so long as Billie Piper doesn't show up...You watch--this will be the one Eccleston turns up for.

Or maybe that's the plot: they're trying to track Eccleston down to have a real reunion of all the Doctors?
