New Doctor to be revealed on Sunday

[Captaindemotion]

Some other sites I've looked at today seem certain it's Capaldi and that if its not, it'll be a huge surprise.

Whoever it is is male...

Was never any doubt for me. Female Doctor business has always been a stupid gimmick, only used to cynically engineer tabloid interest in the casting for the next Doctor.

My only condition for the casting is that we need an older actor. If it's another young, good looking guy then I'll be disappointed. I am a young, good looking guy. I watch Doctor Who for escapism .

So long as they cast a good actor or actress, I couldn't care less about the Doctor's gender, race, or age. What matters if the writing and whether or not the person cast is entertaining.

So how long are they going to dangle it in front of us before they finally reveal it?

Is everyone settled down, with crisps and drinks to keep your energy levels up?

Those in bbca it looks like they will re airing the doctor who revisited (the 30 minute version) afterwards.

I assume most of the show, but long enough for him to give a nice little "happy to be here" speech.

Beyond excited for the announcement but not really looking forward to watching some showbiz media wankathon hosted by Zoe Ball to get to it. Bit too RTD, really.

Your not the only one. Board already by the show.

 

[JoeZhang]

Holy fuck Lisa Tarbuck is the next Doctor!

 

[Relayer1]

And I was hoping for Zoe Ball...

 

[chelly]

Ok I know Peter but who are the other two people? I am assuming Zoe Ball is some tv personality.

...and of course, my internet cuts out while maintaining a solid stream of the site and now that I'm back, I can't reload the page.

This was knocked together in about ten minutes wasn't it?

I'm strangely okay with that.

I've got iPlayer running on a tab with the sound muted so I can periodically check if there's anything interesting happening and de-mute for a bit. My mastery of modern technology knows no bounds.

Loudest Doctor ever!

 

[chelly]

Nah it is Prince Charles. His catch praise is "big ears are cool"

 

[The Nth Doctor]

...and I got back from with a different site.

I'm watching the highly amusing Guardian blog of this instead of the actual show which seems to be the right choice.
