Doctor Who - Discussions on Season 5 onwards

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!

Oh!! All bets are off. I don't know who it is. This is exciting.

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.

The 11th Doctor will be Matt Smith.

I NEVER SAW THAT ONE COMING!!!

It wasn't what the betting and the newspapers were saying.

I have never heard of him, Matt Smith?

Good choice! Should be interesting!

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