Mark Sheppard Finally In Who!

[Pseudo]

Awesome news.

And the best news is that he was filming in Cardiff this evening with Alex Kingston who was so happy to see him she jumped for joy.

Awesome. I love this guy in just about everything he's in!


And Lord knows, he's been in A LOT of shows.

Wow, I am seriously behind on my sci-fi tv. I only know him from Firefly.

Very happy to hear that Mark Sheppard is coming to Doctor Who. I don't mind seeing him on every SF show since he's great. Now if only they could get his dad W. Morgan Sheppard onto Doctor Who ...

*turns in one geek card*

I did not know that W. Morgan Sheppard was his father.

I'll hand in my geek card to go with yours - I didn't know this either.

They'll never give me what I want, though, which is for Sheppard to be playing the Master. I think he'd be a great complement for Smith's Doctor in the same way that Simm was for Tennant.

Excellent! The king of Hell meets the Doctor. Whats not to love?

I'll miss John Simm as The Master, but Mark Sheppard makes a damn fine replacement.

Unless of course he's playing The Valeyard/Dream Lord.

Definitely looking forward to this.
I've been a fan of his work since the old Soldier of Fortune TV show. As for his father, he'll always be the seaQuest hologram to me.

Awesome news, I've enjoyed all his appearances in Firefly, BSG, and Supernatural.
