Doctor Who announcement at midnight tonight....

[RustyBear]

The New Doctor?

Or just the trailer for the 50th anniversary episode?

Or something else entirely?

For me, he is a great choice as long as I put aside his appearance in Torchwood and also I'm sure he was in a DW episode v

Bloody hell-why, why, why?

He's far too good!

Hmmm.

I'm not sure.

Too serious? I think he is a fab actor but just not the dr.

I reckon he will be splendiferous!

Yes, SoupDragon they'll have to tread carefully so he doesn't look like a dirty older man. lol

bah.

I do like Peter Capaldi ( just hope he doesn't channel Malcolm Tucker)

WOW. IM SHAKING AND CRYING! I KNOW, SADDO BUT THIS IS FANTASTIC! SOMEONE WELL KNOWN AND BRILLIANT!

GOT SAME FEELING AS I HAD WHEN ANDY MURRAY WON WIMBLEDON! DOCTOR WHO FOREVER!

OMG IM SO SAD! I MEAN ECSTATIC! AND JUST GOT A NOSE BLEED!

Peter Capaldi and Alex Kingston - that could be an interesting on screen partnership.

The torch wood thing is an issue for me

I am surprised, as he was in Torchwood for a fair few episodes.

Yeah, How are they going to explain the Pompeii connection? Or will it be ignore like with Karen Gillan?

he was in the Pompeii episode!

He was really good in 'The Hour' as well.

I think he will play off Alex Kingston very well

Lovely that he is clearly a real fan.

I thought the leak was just a bluff but I'm really excited! I think he'll be great. Complex and a bit sinister.

I don't know this guy but if he plays it older and more sophisticated that'll be a good change of direction I think.

He's a geek too so should be helpful. DT was a geek & really up for the fan stuff

O but the perfect age for River Song... Ooh The doctor gets frisky at last... Gets married.....

Yeah the Torchwood connection is a bit off. Pompeii not so much.

Wow. Peter Capaldi it is!

He's an excellent actor and I think he will do very well indeed.

Matt Smith looks like a footballer with that hair

I think he'll be good. Matt Smith was terrible.
