Doctor Who royalty is born 😊

And her maternal grandfather (Peter Davison, iirc)

@@LiamLightwolf He's the grandfather "thick" was referring to. 🙂

@thick MclargeHuge: You know you're a Whovian when posts like that make perfect sense. 😁

@@retnavybrat I actually missed that! Whoops! Lol

Omg, that would be freaking awesome! XD

Yes I’m not alone in my thinking! He would actually do great

I love to see Rowan Atkinson as The Doctor, officialy!💖

Tom Baker was the one who first put the idea in the mainstream, but it had been intended as a joke on the reporters covering the press conference about his departure. He told them that he wished his successor, "whoever he or she is, the best of luck" and the reporters gobbled that up like starving people at an all-you-can-eat buffet. 😁

@@retnavybrat Quite based of him to do that. His view on The Doctor is fantastic.

Michael Sheen said he’d only do Doctor Who if it was as the master against David Tennant as the doctor

Could yes. The Curator said so. "in the years to come you might find yourself revisit a few, but just the old favorites" Sadly i don't think David is ready to come back ... yet

@@Temptation666 I am aware

i want him back when the writing is consistently good so he doesn’t get branded as something bad.....

@@idkjustwatching8117 Agreed. Chinballs has got to go! haha

@@TheCriminalViolin chin balls?!! Bahahahahahhaaa. You made my day 😂

oh yes. Better still with Neil Gaiman as showrunner. Sadly that wont ever happen

Michael said He’d only do it as the master with David as the doctor

YES

With Noel Fielding as a companion

@@OverAtlas that would boost the ratings by a lot

Along with Matt Berry as a Two Doctors special

@@johnmcgrath200 Matt Berry: I think you mean as the MAaster.

@@FirstnameLastname-kn5sw oh my god what have you done

Magnus95 would be hilarious to see him confront the darleks: “You are weak!”

Yes! I love that idea!

Simmons, myself.

​@@callianr6980 I think they both would kill it in the role. I only chose to Ian because I've always pictured him in the role since starting shield .

@@jayjayx5x1 he'd rip off the plunger and batter them with it while screaming. XD

genius

Gaius, as in Gaius Baltar from BSG? I could see that working.

@@lwaves as in gaius from merlin 😂

@Alice Aah okay, I only got a little bit into that show, so I don't recall the characters. I keep meaning to give it another go. I take Gaius was Richard Wilson's character. James Callis (Gaius Baltar) would definitely work though, he'd make a great Doctor.

Richard Wilson was Doctor Constantine in The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances (2005).

I do think it would be nice to see the doctor end up with the face of one of their tragically lost companions. They've already done Capaldi from fires of Pompeii, but he wasn't a companion. It'd be good to get someone who actually was one into the role, and see how the doctor copes with that, presumably traumatic, regeneration.

@@alansmithee419 The irony of Capaldi wanting to be a companion and ending up as the Doctor is still one funny thing. I assume that is why they gave him in "It's bigger on the inside"-scene as he would have missed out on it

Well, you're in luck

Christ, please no.

He knocked playing Winston Churchill out of the park in The Crown.

I don't think they've ever had two Doctors as similar as Peter Capaldi and Craig Ferguson would be... I mean they were in the same band in high school ffs

Is he the guy that plays the Grim Reaper?

@@sophiewoodman6301 Nah, I think that was Simon Farnaby.

@@beckyrebs5148 Sorry my bad it's been a while since I watched that show

Yes I wholeheartedly agree

BBC could never in a million years afford him

@@Temptation666 I think they could, i just think he wouldn't want to attach himself to another massive undertaking. Hell of a way to get out of being typecast too

With the amount of dedication RDJ brings to his roles, I'm sure it'd be amazing. But unrealistically expensive too :(

@@Rocksteady72a Maybe not. He has more than enough money for two regenerations. And maybe he is a fan of the show, willing to work for a more affordable pay rate.

Nick deJager Probably not though. He’d still be astronomically expensive even if he lowered his rate.

"The guy from the witcher..." er... you ok? "...Jaskier" *OH F**** *YES.*

Joel McCall He was in Doctor Who once btw.

@@spookylemon4947 so was Peter capaldi

Joel McCall Yeah I know. It’s not a negative. Just a bit of trivia.

A more actively intense doctor portrayed by him could be good. Seems like he could play a doctor more likely to make threats than the other incarnations, but no more likely to actually carry them out (he is still the doctor after all).

eddie redmayne! i completely agree with you. he'd be brilliant.

They don't have the money

That was the first thing I said when I saw fantastic beasts, he'd be PERFECT.

He's way too similar to Matt Smith's portrayal though

@@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8 fair and vaild critisism.

I love that show, even now it's still so great. Managed to find that perfect mix between myth, magic and reality of the times. Excellent soundtrack too. Technically, they've already had the Sheriff (Nickolas Grace) on the show but it wasn't part of the main show.

She has a series of stories in the Big Finish audios.

Cumberbatch was considered to be the Master under Matt Smith’s Eleventh Doctor.

truediva18 I do feel it would be quite the whiplash though, yk? Very much an adjustment. But we've got a female doctor and that's crossed bounds, so who knows.

I'd be curious to know if they'd want their American actor choices to keep their native accents or put on a British accent.

Doctor Who is such a peculiarly British show that I would find casting an American as the lead an extremely strange choice. I suppose it could work, but it would take me some getting used to. Would they talk in their native accent, or would they try to do a British one? Assuming they go with a native American accent because that's more interesting to speculate about, how would them being an American affect the way the show treats the character? It's such a radical change, I feel like the show would address it in some way. Even small things like the Doctor's appreciation of tea could be seen differently from an American perspective.

007robotchicken I totally agree. That's also part of what makes me very hesitant of Jodie's incarnation. It's such a radical change of the doctor, to me it's not really much the doctor anymore. I'm sure that's a unpopular opinion but thats my take

@@mariastephens8643 I respect your opinion, but I don't personally feel she's different from the other Doctors because she's a woman, or even because of the way she plays it. I think she's like a mix of a less human Ten and a less alien Eleven, but she's a lot more upbeat and energetic than either of those two. Judging by the newest episode, I think she's more confident this time around which is good. My problems with the Thirteenth Doctor have nothing to do with Jodie herself, but with her lack of screen time and the inconsistency with the way she's written. Because Chibnall chose to introduce three new companions as well as a new Doctor, I don't really have a firm grasp on her character yet. And the way she's written, she seems like she really wants to save everybody and always wants to do the right thing, but yet she makes morally grey decisions that aren't portrayed as morally grey, like when she thought suffocating the spiders was humane, but shooting them wasn't.

Jesus Christ.

Charlie Hunnam isn't American.

This is officially my new favorite answer. BRILLIANT.

Lol i can actually see that

Subtle Gong He wouldn’t be able to open the tardis door 😂

Dinkle Doc?

I would switch the doctor and the companion tho

liliam wong castro They’d both be perfect Doctors, Phoebe would be a great Companion though

Phoebe waller-bridge writing Ruth Wilson's Master would be another good combo

Chaz she already has... www.bigfinish.com/releases/v/jenny-the-doctor-s-daughter-1701
