Based on the way Robert Sheehan left Misfits, I'm not sure the producers would want to take that chance with him.... but I do suddenly really want to see the Doctor somehow saddled with Nathan as a companion.

It might not be one of them, I was just using them as examples. It will be a someone who is on a tv show, and not someone that is already a huge name.

JLC was confirmed - proper, like - a few weeks back. I hope Stephen Mangan is just trolling/having a laugh/whatever, I really don't fancy the idea of him as The Doctor at all. River and him in the same quadrant together would probably cause some kind of Annoying Smug Shite singularity.

Paterson Joseph for the Doctor and James Nesbitt for the Master. That's one way to do it.

If we're going for an older Doctor: Patrick Stewart with Jeremy Irons as the Master. Don't tell me that wouldn't kick all kinds of rear end. A middle-aged doctor: I'd be down with Hugh Laurie.

I guess I'll be "that guy" and say I was never a huge fan of Smith. Partly I never really liked his style, but for the most part I think I had a problem disassociating himself with the features of the Moffat era in general. Of course I also largely didn't like Tennant for the same reason, but since he left I've grown somewhat fonder of his seasons, so maybe that will be the case with Smith a while from now. I'm also hoping for an older Doctor, but completely expecting he will be as young or younger than Smith was in 2010.

I do think its time to oust Moffat. I blame him for this because he can't handle a budget, scripts, and running two shows.

Whelp, looks like if Moffat is going to address The Valeyard, it's coming sooner than later.  If they don't do The Valeyard (and seriously, how awesome would it be to have Michael Jayston as a nice Doctor with a darker side who grows darker and knows he might slip and go full evil?), then my second choices would be Patterson Joseph and the rumored Ben Daniels. I was so disappointed when he left  :UK, so anything to give him work is good.Joseph and Daniels are both 48, which would make either of them the 3rd oldest after Hartnell and Pertwee. On the other hand, if we want to get an idea of where Moffat's head is at, personally I thought he was the most effusive about Pertwee in all the past Doctor specials so far. He may indeed go for a dashing older man of action/scientist.

For the Valeyard to happen, doesn't he have to break the timelock on Gallifrey in order to go back?

It would be interesting to have a series or two of Doctor Who where it's a group of companions teaming up in the TARDIS trying to assassinate the Valeyard so he can regenerate into the Doctor again.

I thought the Valeyard was between 12 and 13 anyway, so we wouldn't see anything about Valeyard til the end of the 12ths tenure, right?

It may not change the numbering, but it does change the number of regenerations that there have been. Edit: Actually, I guess it's "incarnation", so that probably does mean Doctors. The Master posted:There is some evil in all of us, Doctor, even you. The Valeyard is an amalgamation of the darker sides of your nature, somewhere between your twelfth and final incarnation. It could go either way, really.

Super.Jesus posted:For the Valeyard to happen, doesn't he have to break the timelock on Gallifrey in order to go back? He'd have to go back to Gallifrey in his own past, which he already did. That was already a rule he broke. The Time War timelock is a bit fuzzy. My personal theory is that for a Time War to be a Time War, you have to have an endgame like in Voyager where the goal is for both sides to erase the other from existence. So therefore the timelock would have removed all traces of Gallifrey and the Daleks from all history. This is supported in the new series by the fact that The Doctor claims he would have been able to feel the Master or any other Time Lord in all history but he was the Last and only one (because the Master was human). Also the Tree Lady from End of the World was of a "time sensitive" race, one of the very few who understood there was some other timeline with Time Lords protecting time and influence the universe. And The Reapers in Father's Day were the kind of thing that existed now that the Time Lords were gone. If the Time Lords were at any point influencing Time, then they would still be everywhere. Clearly when the Daleks came out of the timelock they were able to recreate historical Skaro and some version of their history beating the Thals, as well as the Asylum. But you don't need Gallifrey for The Valeyard to exist. If he can't get there, it's just an alternate timeline with one place he can't go. The Valeyard Doctor may have had many adventures before trying to steal his previous regenerations; in the beginning he may even have been good. Aurora posted:He's not the 'real 8th Doctor', they're already getting around that by every other Doctor striking him from the counting, it seems. Numbering is intact, as far as we know. He makes Smith the 11th Doctor, but on his 12th body. Which is suitably weird enough to explain away the Master's comment, especially assuming the Master himself may have had an incomplete understanding of the shenanigans which hosed up the numbering.

Astroman posted:He'd have to go back to Gallifrey in his own past, which he already did. That was already a rule he broke. This implies that he could also go back and prevent the time war in the first place if he really wanted to, or that he could just go chill on Gallifrey a hundred years before he was born. My understanding is that the time lock extends back to the beginning of Gallifrey's history, effectively making everything set in stone, except the exceedingly unclever timelord plots to escape their inevitable fate (Here let's just stand around in our portal until the Doctor figures out he can just shoot that crystal to shut us out.)

We know the Valeyard exists in the past though, so maybe that's an exception to the Time Lock rule (dudes can enter if they were already part of events but can't exit).
