Who does it for You?
If you could choose an actor (or actress) to play the Doctor, who would you choose?
I ask this because (I think) the last few Doctors have been….odd choices. A tall Northerner, with very little hair? (Not that I have anything against Northerners. Or people without much hair). And then a thirty-something guy who’s not that bad looking? You shouldn’t be able to fancy the Doctor! In my mind he should be like an eccentric, slightly weird Uncle or Grandfather, with that ‘I’ve got lots of secrets’ face. And to play him? In my mind, I see Anthony Stewart-Head, Or Rowan Atkinson. Richard Wilson (Victor Mildew) would be a good choice. And for some reason, I think Sean Connery seems to work, too. You? |
Patrick Stewart -- as long as he can do a French accent.

Eddie Izzard
In a skirt and a red corset... |
What would be totally hilarious and disturbing would be to have Kirk play who.
Give it a moment for the creepy images to sink into your head. |
This makes me think of the Curse of the Fatal Death, where we got to see a slew of very different Doctors (including Joanna Lumley!). Hugh Grant even had a great take on the role, but Rowan Atkinson nailed it.
Someone once mentioned Hugh Laurie as a possible Doctor, and that's a fascinating thought. Also a possibility in a similar vein is Simon Jones. For a darker but still wryly comic Doctor: Alan Rickman! But my top choice for a solid, fascinating Doctor that harks back to Hartnell: Terrence Stamp. Wrap your mind around that. |

I think Hugh Laurie would be fantastic as the doctor. He's shown on House that he can clearly take his acting in different directions. Likewise for Alan Rickman, but I maybe a little bias because I feel they're fantastic actors.
As Scooter mentioned, Joanna Lumley was kinda one too. I don't know, I think with the right Woman that could work? A female Doctor?[/quote] |

^^. As for Woman...what about Liz Hurley? :wink: ~~Lostoyannaya |

And I liked Chris Eccleston as well. Though I think I'm going to love David Tennant, despite complaints that we shouldn;t have a Doctor you can "fancy"... ;) |
Ick, female Doctors!
Hmm, that didn't quite come out right...Nevermind. I'd like to see Ian McDiarmid in the part, or possibly...hmm...Christopher Lee? |

I suppose if we're going on to the subject of female Doctors, how about Catherine Schell? |
Toby Maguire can do a physical on me any day. Rar. ;)

Again with the looking like a 20 year old boy! And the Doctor shouldn't be attractive! There should be a No Kissing sign in the Tardis.
On that I think Richard O'Brian would be a good doctor. (Crystal Maze?) First bald one too. |

Call me weird (and I know you all do), but I'd rather like to see Jonathan Pryce in the roll - he was of course the Master in Fatal Death. I'm also still rooting for Bill Nighy to have a shot at the part at some point too.

If you don't think Jedi is weird, you haven't been around here long enough. |

I have an email from Bill somewhere. It's a patient response to fanboy babbling. |
