hope it's not a female because it would spoil the continuity of all the past regenerations always being male


I have a feeling the new Doctor will be male as in the trailer you hear a vox pop from DT saying 'I'm rather jealous of the new chap "

Plenty of clues: male, young, something about the hair....

I wonder how many people are watching this programme, they've trailed it enough, it's been in the papers and has been an item on the NC all day....

Lots of money recently has gone on an actor called Ben Whishaw. He's young and has crazy hair. Could it be him?

Wikipedia said Russell Tovey (age fits) - now it says Ghengis Khan!

No, the 11th doctor is apparently 26, Ben Whishaw is older.

Except for the fact that he's 27!

As of November... so the "I go and cast a 26 year old" comment could refer to pre-then.

Perhaps, Alexia, after I just edited my post, and I recall he was one of RTD's favourites for the job. Wink

The 11th Doctor will be Matt Smith.

Good choice! Should be interesting!

He was mentioned as a 'possible' in various newspapers last week.
