Who should become the next Doctor after Whittaker?

[Galileo7]

Peter Dinklage

 

[Jayson1]

Peter Dinklage

He would be great in the role. His brand of humor would be more sarcastic than others but I would enjoy it. One issue though in regards to his size is would this impact things that are common with the Doctor such as running? I know some smaller people have health issues and can't do things like that. I don't know what things are like though with Dinklage.

[F. King Daniel]

Graham Norton

 

[JRoss]

I want Idris Elba for James Bond, but not for the Doctor. He seems to gruff and tough in all of his roles, even though he can be a lot of fun to watch.

 

[Venardhi]

Chiwetel Ejiofor
Simon Baker
Lupita Nyong'o
Riz Ahmed
Benedict Wong
Harriet Walter (going purely off of her one snarky line in The Force Awakens)

 

[Professor Zoom]

OO. I like the idea of Benedict Wong. I've liked him in interviews.

 

[YellowSubmarine]

I still think either Romola Garai or Laura Carmichael would be fantastic choices.

That wouldn't be the Sherlock Holmes crossover I was thinking of.

 

[Xhiandra]

Natalie Dormer.

 

[UncleRogi]

Isn't it obvious?...

Catherine Tate!

 

[auntiehill]

Alexander Siddig

Kris Marshall

Sam Troughton

Domhnall Gleeson

Ben Whishaw

Jason Flemyng

Gwendoline Christie

Ruth Wilson

Ruth Negga

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Peter Dinklage

And get Gwendoline Christie and Miranda Hart to be his companions...

First, ths Doctor must be British (and this is coming from a North American). Otherwise he/she would not really be the doctor. The show is quintessential British. It is not North American. I'm for more women or other ethnic immigrant group members. I also would LOVE to see my all time favorite actor, namely Patrick Stewart, though that will never happen.

Am I the only one who finds this thread kinda disrespectfull? Imagine you starting in a new job..nobody has seen any of your work results yet..but people are already speculating who might get the job after you.. I would be so annoyed, pissed and oh...not really that motivated anymore to do my best.

I agree with you. I hope she lasts as long as Tom Baker. I am also really looking forward to a new interpretation of the doctor by a woman. But it is hard not to join future speculation.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

Considering how long the wait is until Series 11, and how little else there is to talk about, this isn't so bad.

Regarding disrespect towards Whitaker, this is barely a blip at the level of disrespect that was tossed her way for just being a woman taking a job.

We are just going off the old formula that whether she is good or bad she will leave after 3 or 4 years. Like the American President, no matter who has the job people will always being to wonder who the next one will be. Gossip is quite normal behavior.

I want to see the guy who played the Doctor Moon from -Library.

Then Dinklage

 

[YellowSubmarine]

John Boyega

 

[Butters]

It should be, either someone that none of us have ever heard of, or, either Kathryn Drysdale, or Katherine Parkinson.

Drysdale could continue the tradition of a guest role before the big part.
