Paterson Joseph - black actor - tipped as Tennant's replacement

[wamdue]

not heard of this website, what is its track record?

 

[Garth Rockett]

I've not tallied it up, but I follow the column regularly and my impression is that he's usually right when he gives an item a green light, which he did this one.

 

[wamdue]

so the traffic light is a system on how good s/he feels the information is?

 

[The Mirrorball Man]

Yes, it is. The traffic light system is explained right there on the page.

hadn't realised he was the guy from Numberwang, if he is the Doctor, I would be most annoyed if doesn't say "thats Numberwang" at some point in the series.

 

[Harry Palmer]

It'd be nice to have an older Doctor again.

Apologies if this has been posted already...

Genuine slip or misdirection??

Well if he is then it's very beeb, I mean I know they've manage to keep a few secrets but look at how many huge leaks they've had, right back to Chris Eccleston leaving, and Tennent being cast.

Rich Johnson is full of shit - take anything that weasel says with a pinch of salt.

What about the things he says that turn out to be right?

We ignore those.

 

[ClayinCA]

If this is the new Doctor then, i might be the only one on here but i feel this guy is the wrong guy for this role.

Watching this guy from that clip and from the Dr who episode he just to me is boring and just dont come across as anything special.

I mean is the best they can come up with? Sad very sad.

Skin color would easilly be changed by regeneration. Considering it changes body weight, height, hair style, and the like-- changing the amount of melanin pigmentation would be a pretty minor alteration for a regeneration.

Certainly more plausible than the Doctor changing gender.
Or becoming half-human for one regeneration.

Just out of curiosity, have we seen a Time Lord with dark skin before?

One of the Time Lord extras in the flashbacks in "The Sound of Drums" was black.

I'm pretty sure one of Romana's regeneration tryouts was green or blue or something...I could be mistaken though!

Don't forget that the 9th Doctor told Rose "jokingly" that he might end up with "Two heads. Or no head. Imagine me with no head!" But then much more seriously said regeneration is very 'dodgey' and "You never know what you might end up with."

Jeez, you could at least wait until the new Doctor (whoever it turns out to be) actually starts before doling out the pessimism.

and where would be the fun in that?

I haven't much enjoyed PJ's roles, his characteres don't have much sympathy, and that'll be transferred into a role like the Doctor.

Oh, it's not jsut that. He seems a bit smarmy.

There are better choices out there.
