So is the rumour true that Daniel Radcliffe is set to be the youngest Doctor? I saw this in the paper today and am
Tell me it is just gossip and hype????

David Tennant made a joke about Daniel Radcliffe playing a future doctor when he introduced the Pussy Cat Dolls on that daft 'save-the-planet-by-ego-stroking' concert. It's about as plausible as Tony Blair playing him because he was in a comic relief skit with Catherine Tate.

And if it is true, I shall be asking for the love of pinstripes, why??

What's he going to say to the daleks/cybermen "Stop it or i'll tell my mum!" or mayber "Expecto Patronus?"

UnquietDad · 13/09/2007 13:44

The papers love "who's the next Doctor" stories and they very rarwely have any basis in fact.

Over the years, tabloids have tried to convince us that the new Doctor is going to be played by Donald Sutherland, Joanna Lumley, David Hasselhoff, Michael Crawford, Richard Griffiths, Sylvester Stallone and dozens of others!

David Tennant is officially under contract for one more series and four more feature-length specials until 2009. There may be a new Doctor in 2010. Let's wait and see, shall we?

Indeed. I hate the 'Gravitas' cobblers, but seriously. Jimmy Krankie has more of a commanding presence.

southeatsastras · 13/09/2007 13:45

will this one be the last? daniel radcliffe would be awful. daniel craig would be nicer

Iklboo · 13/09/2007 13:45

Pete Doherty is the new Dr Who (the f*ck am I?)

SueBaroo · 13/09/2007 13:48

Actually, I have it on good authority that Vicki Pollard is in talks to be the next companion. Since Rose left there's been a chav-shaped hole in the TARDIS...

Chirpygirl · 13/09/2007 13:48

The Hoff? He would be awesomely shite!

Threadworm · 13/09/2007 13:53

What about having the timeLord Voldemort as Dr He Who Must Not Be Named. Then we could have Ralph Feinnes playing him. Mmmm, Mmmm.

Peachy · 13/09/2007 13:59

Heard this before, although was just one of a few options (Jimmy nesbitt being another)

bollocks idea, cant beleive it for a moment.

Peachy · 13/09/2007 14:01

can't stick daniel craig either btw- yeesh

Isn't Pete Doherty supposedly being given a footie team to run for a new fly on the wall thing? More Mn, less TV to watch again then....

MaryAnnSingleton · 13/09/2007 14:02

whaaaat ? no !!!

lilibet · 13/09/2007 14:04

I've heard James Nesbitt as well, really don't think so.

Will be very if he gets it.

Eddie Izzard for me

serenity · 13/09/2007 14:05

Oh excellent, a new Doctor Who rumour, I love them I won't believe it until it's in The Sun of course

There are worse candidates than Daniel Radcliffe though.

MaryAnnSingleton · 13/09/2007 14:06

Eddie Izzard would be perfect (in a stiletto, of course)

Peachy · 13/09/2007 14:07

See I could live with Jimmy or Eddie, but Daniel radcliffe si barely out of nappies

Cappuccino · 13/09/2007 14:09

ha ha ha Daniel Radcliffe

"I have years of intergalactic experience"

no I think Dr Who is expat's choice this time

TheDuchessOfFlashman · 13/09/2007 14:10

Either very young or much older and redheaded - because DTs newly regenerated Dr was rather disappointed not to be!

serenity · 13/09/2007 14:13

Have a scroll through this thread for some photoshopped ideas for Eleven (that sounds so wrong!)

UnquietDad · 13/09/2007 14:25

I didn't recognise Ben Miller in that thread until someone said who it was. I thought it was Rob Brydon!

TheDuchessOfFlashman · 13/09/2007 16:35

I only like Eddie Izzard doing stand-up.

Mackenzie Crook might be fun. And different.

SueBaroo · 13/09/2007 17:21

Kris what-his-face Marshall (I think). I think I fancy a bit of that as the Doctor.
