New Doctor to be revealed on Sunday
- Thread starter Pindar
- Start date
Matt Smith is often awkward in interviews though. He looks down, moves, etc. That's just what he does.
Hell Romana gave the impression she could change species!
And 11 thought he was a girl when he first regenerated. So it's not a out of the realm of possibility concept for a timelord.

EVERY CELL CHANGES during regenerations. "I could have two heads! Or no head," Nine said.
The Doctor could easily be female. The gender is not set. I don't know why so many people don't understand this.

And we know that some timelords can control the look of their regeneration. I don't think we've ever seen a typical regeneration (one not brought on by trauma or was forced on him) with the Doctor.
I love the idea of Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. He is the same age as me 
The young fan girls will probably have to be placated with a sexy, male companion. The very first crush I ever had as a pre-teen was on a Who companion - Jamie McCrimmon. I loved seeing him running around in his kilt, being so gentlemanly towards the women he travel with. There was real chemistry between him and Victoria.
My crush lasted several years and left me with a lifelong fetish for men in kilts.

Yep. On the gender thing, we've got one bit of 'canon' evidence, and it's a throwaway line, but it says, It Happens, It's Not a Big Deal.
You can't say something is canon without citing how it's canon. Episode title?
The Doctor's Wife: The Doctor refers to the Corsair changing genders. And just after he regenerates into 11, the Doctor feels his hair and face and thinks his a girl for an instant.
I wasn't doubting the facts, Seer, I was trying to remind DianKra the importance of due diligence.
For the person who looked for Peter Capaldi on Twitter:
I've always been under the impression that if a time lord decides to regenerate because they want a new body they have a decent amount of control over it (like how Romana tried on different bodies when she regenerated) and could probably change genders if they wanted to.
If they are regenerating because they are dying, like what usually happens with the Doctor, they probably don't have much control over how they look (since the Doctor has been surprised about how he looks) and probably can't change genders.

You know I think a portion of the young fan girls will find themselves getting a thing about Capaldi anyway, even if they don't realise it yet. I know plenty of women (admittedly in their 30s) who think he's sex on legs.
30's - whippersnappers, I wish I was still in my 30's.

I am in my 30's and think he is pretty handsome. Personally I don't care how old any of the actors are as long as they can pull off playing the doctor. Funny thing I also find all the other 11 doctors Hansome or cute also.
That's almost the way I feel, but, I wouldn't discount the Gender change in Regenerations due to Trauma. I think a Regeneration brought about by fatal trauma is a crap shoot, like cramming a bunch of stuff into a blender, and switching it on, it all gets mixed up and you get what you get. The brain probably drives it (IE: with fatal Trauma, you really can't concentrate on what you want, so you get what you get) so, if you're a male, and thinking feminine thoughts, you may end up becoming female.
My only concern about casting an actor whos done a lot of work, and who's fairly well known, is whether he'll pull an Eccleston on us and decide to move on after a season.
Read up on why Eccleston left the show. They've learned their lesson since then.
