Yeah: BBC News - Peter Capaldi revealed as Doctor Who's new lead
A good choice in my opinion. I imagine based on his earlier works (particularly the Thick of It) that his style of Doctoring would be rather sarcastic. I can't wait to see how he will do actually.
Okay, so, he was Caecilius in The Fires of Pompeii! Which means we've/we'll have two actors who were one-off characters in that show go on to be extremely important characters in the series!
He was also Sid's dad on Skins. I'm really happy with this choice. I think he'll be great. :)
I thought I recognized him. Can't wait to see how his Doctor acts.Quote:

When I said "in that show" I meant "in that episode."Quote:

You have to be staff to change a thread title.
Bawwww.
Anyway, if you like putting lasers in things, here you go:
Judging from Neverwhere and Children of Earth, I'm sure Capaldi will do superbly in the role.
It's also worth pointing out, since a number of people elsewhere have been complaining about it, that having an actor who plays a Time Lord having appeared in the series previously is not unprecedented; Lalla Ward played Princess Astra before Romana regenerated using her appearance, and Colin Baker appeared in one of Peter Davison's serials.

Rule One: The Doctor lies.
Rule Two:
New Doctor to travel back in time and invent the word "smurf"
I'm not much of a Whovian but the haters need to stfu because Peter Capaldi is brilliant.
That is fantastic! I'm exploring a bigger box inside a smaller box!Quote:
