howe_sam posted:He was in a band with Craig Ferguson! I remember a few years ago reading The War for Late Night, which came out in 2010 and was about the Conan O'Brien/Jay Leno fiasco. It talks about Ferguson in one section and briefly mentions something said by "his former band member (and also actor) Peter Capaldi".

It was a real shame they never booked Capaldi on the Late Late Show after he was cast as the Doctor.

I would love to see Craig Ferguson in Doctor Who (and you know he would do it in an instant) but I can't imagine what role he would fit in.

^^^ Gorn Myson posted:I'm in two minds about Olivia Colman, because on the one hand I've seen her in so many things that I'm a little bit sick of her, but on the other hand casting an average looking woman in her mid-forties as the lead in a franchise like this is exactly the kind of bold thing that I'd loving love to see. We know what lessons 12 needed from his Pompeii patriarch, just imagine what she would have needed to take from being partially Prisoner Zero. Having needle teeth means you have to gulp more than chew? Comatose people have really boring dreams? Don't ever overlook nurse Rory's? Don't live in Broadchurch for more than a year?

Perhaps in a sequel to the Dream Doctor episode. There are two new Doctors in the TARDIS brought forth from the twelfth doctors psyche, one is the personification of his confidence, and the other his paranoia.

I guess that means that they expect it to leak next week and want to get out ahead of it. I'm really hoping that it is something weird and unexpected and not just 'young white male actor who did a little telly and a few well reviewed theatre pieces'.

Kris Marshall is even money at the moment. Odds have definitely taken a tumble. Phoebe Waller-Bridge is 9/2, Jodie Whittaker is 11/2.

Yeah and reading about him leaving he wants to spend more time at home with his family since his eldest is starting school. Speculation now seems to be revolving around Broadchurch and Kris Marshal.

Having Kris Marshall as the new Doctor might just be enough to make my wife quit watching Doctor Who. She stopped watching Death in Paradise because of him.

I've learnt from Catherine Tate and Matt Lucas not to dismiss someone on Doctor Who just because they were in something else I utterly despise. But yeah, if it's Kris Marshall, I'm done. Nothing says unambitious, small, Saturday afternoon BBC programming than your lead being a guy from My Family.

Thomas Sangster would make a good Doctor, now I think about it. Or Liam Neeson. Or Chiwetel Ejiofor. Or hell, Keira Knightley isn't too busy these days since Pirates 5 wrapped, is she?

Stairs posted:Did you see Love Actually? And this is why the choice, assuming it's him, baffles me. Love Actually was FOURTEEN years ago. Like, this is because they want someone young and hot like Smith and Tennant? Nothing says that like a bland dude in his forties that your gran watches in a whodunnit. I kinda feel bad for the dude, because the audience is going to be at best underwhelmed, at worst he'll be torn apart for not being sexy enough by one faction, and for being the boring, safe choice by another. I really, really hope this was forced on Chibnall by the Beeb, because if it was his free choice, it speaks to a very, very unambitious view of things. Of course, if it was the BBC, I half suspect it's setting the show up to fail to the point where they can cancel it. I hope it's actually Waller-Bridge and the bookies are keeping the odds a little longer for her because of the lack of precedent. (Yeah, yeah, I know, that one goon has pissed in everyone's cornflakes and made it clear they're not doing anything interesting)

What the other people said. His most notable role is being pretty forgettably unfunny in a sappy movie from over a decade ago. Maybe he has grown as an actor and is going to bring some Eccleston-esque pathos to the role or some Smithian energy or something entirely new? I think he will be a slightly older Tennant redux.

Eccleston had years of "hard northern bastard" to draw upon. Kris Marshall may well be able to pull it off, but he is by far the least interesting option. That said, I eventually warmed to Smith and I think he was better than Tennant (Smith at least seemed slightly off, which is what I want from a Doctor, rather than a Pat Sharp impersonator).

Do you mean Tennant or Marhsall for that last comment because Jesus, I never thought about it but Marshall DOES look like Sharp!

He will forever be that BT tosser to me. But I will give him a chance for an episode or two. I thought Matt Smith was going to be the worst, but ended up to be my personal favourite.

Riptor posted:It really is incredible how horrendous that first promo picture of Matt Smith was given how incredible he ended up being Yeah, that reveal image was completely unlike the style and tone of 11's run (especially the first season). That's why I'm not gonna put too much stock in however they introduce 13.

I like him, although Ben Miller was of course far superior. He'd make a good Doctor somewhere between Smith and Tennant I think. If we need to have another youngish white guy, I'm ok with him. Of course I would prefer some "daring" casting like a PoC or a woman. Or a ginger. Decius fucked around with this message at 06:22 on Jul 15, 2017 |
