Doctor Who speculation on who would be the next doctor. If you don't want to know, don't click.
[spoiler]
John Hurt would be the only person I'd put any money on, due to his appearance at the end of the episode "The Name of the Doctor". What I am most tired of is people saying all the people who have appeared in Harry Potter. AWFUL IDEA, PEOPLE!!! Everyone being suggested seems too young also. I have heard some people say Johnny Depp, which I honestly wouldn't mind with how well he plays weird characters, except for the fact that he's, uhh, AMERICAN!!! I also wouldn't mind a woman doctor either, but that talk has been going on for a very long time now. I doubt it would happen. Ben Daniels is truthfully the frontrunner, and I am totally fine with that.
[/spoiler]
But I think it boils down to this: No big names. NO. An English actor or actress that has little exposure but is good. And weird. And can take a well known character and make it their own. And at least 30 years old. That is my take, and I will stand by it.
Oh yeah, my first Doctor was Tom Baker. He had quit the job ten years before I was born, but, I grew up watching old Tom Baker episodes with my Dad. And I loved David Tennant. But, from day 1, I just never liked Matt Smith. Don't ask why.
