Well yes, he WOULD make a great Dr but I must admit I enjoy seeing the variety of characters he plays in different films too, that is part of his appeal to me. I can never wait to see what his next film will be about!

What kind of a Doctor would Klaus Kinski have made?

Tim Roth is quite good at scary as well, though he probably couldn't be tempted away from the US now.

Carlyle would be the kind of Doctor that future companion River Song talked about. The kind of Doctor that makes "whole armies turn and run away."

I suppose there hasn't been a Doctor of that sort, has there?

There have been whimsical Doctors, philosphical ones, even wussie ones...but never a Begby-style Doctor.

I'm intrigued!

Time it was a woman. Or a dwarf.

How about a female dwarf.

Little Jimmy Krankie.

Fandabbydozzie.

With Emu as an assistant.

Or ... not.

All men leak.

Recent rumours also suggested that the time for a black Doctor may lead to the actor
Adrian Lester taking on the role. Even more baffling for many, was the idea that James Nesbitt was next up, a lovely bloke, but as the DOCTOR...?????

Favourites for next Doctor Who emerge
An actor who has already appeared in Doctor Who is the early favourite to replace David Tennant as the star of the sci-fi show.

Cold Feet star James Nesbitt has often been mentioned as the actor in the frame to become the 11th timelord.

But bookmakers Paddy Power favour Paterson Joseph as the favourite to take over the role, offering odds of 3-1 on him becoming the first black doctor.

He has already appeared in two episodes of the show playing Roderick alongside previous doctor, Christopher Eccleston.

Joseph, 44, trained at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and is probably most familiar to television viewers as Mark Grace in Casualty, and he also starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Hollywood film The Beach.

Life on Mars star John Simm and his co-star David Morrisey in political drama State of Play are also given odds of 8-1 and 5-1 respectively to pick up the keys to the Tardis.

Diehard fans of the series have indulged in feverish speculation about the possible successor to Tennant almost from the moment he took over the role.

Ignored by the bookmakers but a contender that has piqued the fanbase's interest is Notting Hill star Rhys Ifans.

The Welsh star would certainly be at home in Cardiff where the series is filmed.

Outside contenders could include Paul McGann who became the timelord in 1996 in a one-off Doctor Who film.

Hi.
Looking at this, some of you have referred to Paul McGann. Are you awre he is also the current Doctor Who in the latest series of new adventures being broadcast? At the moment there are two actors taking the part. David Tennant on BBC television and Paul Mcgann on BBC Radio 7 which is digital. The current/latest series is at six o'clock Saturdays and repeated a few hours later at midniight.
