I vote for Tim Minchin. There is the added advantage that he's a ginger. He'd be an awesome doctor.
 
Alan's name comes up every time, he would have been perfect 10 years ago - they won't go older anymore, they want a young zappy possibly sexy doctor.
And also they seem to prefer someone not so well known. I thought Mr Mighty Boosh Noel Fielding might be good he looks like an alien.
But they seem to have a finely tuned sense for casting, everyone has been awesome, some have been pure genius like Catherine Tate.

And Sticky are you watching Fry's Gadget Man? Great little show.

...I have it taped kxk... my wife and I watch everything that he is in... we think that he is great... especially with Alan Davies in QI... I went into hysterics in a movie theatre when he appeared as Mycroft naked in Sherlock Holmes... one of the funniest things that I have ever watched... cheers.

...Alan Davies would certainly look the part as Dr Who in my opinion as you can see... he still would be my number 1 choice...

alan davies as dr who.jpg

...if not I'd like them to put my number 2 choice Dylan Moran into the role... an older Doctor would make a good change for a few seasons in my opinion...

dylan moran as dr who.jpg

...and my third choice?... Eddie Izzard... now he would sure put a different slant on the role of Dr Who that's for sure...

...either of the three in the role would make me a very happy chappy indeed... cheers.
 
I think I'd have trouble getting past Alan Davies being Alan Davies. His persona as himself is so stuck in my head it would take me a while to connect him with the Doctor. I suppose they could always send him off to visit Pliny the Elder, that would be good for a laugh. I watched the Whites series a while back where he played a grumpy disillusioned chef a it was hard getting my head around it being loveable Alan. It just didn't seem right.

Dylan Moran would be interesting although I think every character he plays is the same person with a different name. Eddie..hmmm. He'd make a good Master. Not so sure about a good Doctor.

I watched that cheffy thing too, when I remembered - was quite funny. Worse was some other thing he was in about relationships, all melodrama and he was a philandering creep, seem to recall he or somebody was bi, it was shit.

They can't go with fancy pants people well known for other stuff - just doesn't work now days. Olden days doc with old codgers worked back then, but no more.
I just want them to pick a quirky fun hopefully bit sexy good actor, largely unknown to me works best, don't want someone's other fabulous persona taking over doctorness:)

Merlin dude's name is one in the mix, quite like him
 
Oo Colin Morgan. He'd be quite good. He has that right amount of quirky. He was in one of the episodes, the one where 10 was on the diamond planet doing the tour and the bus broke down and he got taken over by some alien and was repeating everything people said.

...because he was in that episode the chances of Steve Moffatt casting him as the Doctor would be a pretty remote possibility methinks... all of the diehard Whovian fanbase would cry 'bullshit... bullshit' in unison... although his take on The Doctor would've been interesting to see... cheers.

It's not impossible though, it has happened before.
In the classic series, 6th Doctor Colin Baker had previously appeared in a different role in a 5th Doctor story.
On the companion side, Lalla Ward appeared as another character before being cast as the regenerated Romana.
In the new series, Karen Gillan had a bit part in the Pompeii episode before returning as Amy, and Freema Aygeman played another character before returning as her cousin, Martha.
I agree that it would be a fairly remote possibility though.

Not having a soul would prolly help in qualifying, yes ? ;) :)

From the above linked wiki, we can learn that:

Ginger is the medical term for a "person" affected by the bizarre disfiguring disease known as Gingervitus. Ghoulish symptoms include hair color ranging from an eerie light copper-tone to deep blood red, as well as a translucent to pallid skin tone. Much adversity has been attributed to gingers' existence throughout history, and while female gingers can be considered attractive, most males of the ginger persuasion seem to resemble animated clowns.

Origin and History

It is thought that the gingers, like other damn dirty apes, originated in Africa. For reasons still unknown, they gradually migrated Northwest, and by circa 3600BC had reached what is now modern-day Scotland. Unfortunately, due to recurrent internal strife, Scottish society was unable to put up any significant resistance to the Ginginvaders. As a result, the Gingers quickly overwhelmed the ethnic Scottish, and Scotland has ever since been dominated by the Reds.

Since the mid-1970's the steadily increasing number of Ginger immigrants to England has prompted increasingly violent ethnic tension. In recent years, this backlash has occasionally erupted into acts of terrorism and violence aimed at killing or expelling as many Gingers from Great Britain as possible. In the words of at least one widely-respected world leader, the ultimate goal is to "wipe them off the map" and "drive them into the sea" (Ahamadinejad, 2008). Interestingly, social backlash in Briton appears greatest in Irish and Muslim communities. Some DNA experts correctly speculate that such peoples are naturally prone to intolerance and terrorism due to their generally lower intelligence compared to ethnically-British people (Watson, 2009.)

Luckily, Gingers will cease to exist by the year 2029. By that time, the whole of England will have finally recognized that the threat posed by Gingers, just like bird flu, AIDS sufferers, and other "bloody undesirables" needs to be isolated, quarantined, and exterminated. Amen.

Description

Gingers have no soul; This is the underlining cause of their Gingerness. Being tools of the devil, they are marked with the colour of their master (ie: red). However, not all gingers may show as being obviously Ginger. The elusive half-Ginger is produced by the breeding of a Normal with a Ginger, producing offspring who may or may not show the Ginger hair but are most certainly Ginger, right down to their soulless core. Theologists have theorised that gingers were an attempt by god to rid the world of smurfs. The ginger is the perfect anti - smurf being diametrically opposed to them (they're red). Gingers have been subject to discrimination for many years based on their appearance, and due to their absence of a soul. This soullessness has lead brunettes to believe that Gingers therefore lack emotion and dignity. This doctrine eventually led to the formation of Brown Supremacist groups which promote the "superiority" of brown-haired people.

:D

oh and ...

What to do if you find a Ginger

The most important thing to remember: DO NOT TOUCH IT. If it touches you at any point it WILL consume your soul. Freckles are where a ginger stores the souls of her victims, so beware the highly freckled ginger.

If for any reason you cannot escape touching a Ginger, Listerine is the only known preventative for contracting Gingervitis so remember to carry a small bottle at all times.

ah, so THAT'S why I've been instinctively carrying (and consuming) listerine for years now !

Mind you, numba1son is the son of a ginger ... and he too has my listerine habit. lol.

Anyhoo, this is what can happen when ginger meets ginger !

...you can tell that I'm missing my weekly dose of Dr Who when I sit around and do things like this... for some reason I've had this idea tinkling around in my head for ages and thought 'stuffit... I've got time on my hands'... and did this last night... I found the idea amusing but I'm guessing that nobody else will... oh well... maybe I'm too way out in left field somewhere?... anyhow... here goes... cheers.
