    None of the above.

    Very strangely, all the choices given are MALE.

    One exceptional, perfect actor for the role: Tamsin Greig

    Rhys Ifans would be the nearest, but I agree with SP; none of the above is quite right, adorable as many are.

    A quick look back will confirm that the great doctors (Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee, Baker, Tennant) all have large/pointed noses, and are generally a bit angular.  Eccleston was the exception that proves the rule.

     

    On that basis Tamsin Greig would be spot on.  Of the people apparently in the frame, David Morrissey and Patterson Joseph wouldn't tick the box.  But Julian Rhind-Tutt does.  Not that I'm biassed or anything...

    I think Bill Nighy would be excellent if a slightly older Doctor was required.

     I agree - none of the above: Bill Nighy for doctor! Also, yes, Tamsin Grieg would be excellent but my vote's still for Bill.

    I would actually go for Michael Sheen. (Played Tony Blair in The Queen, Kenneth Williams...) He is a brilliant actor and could adapt to all the requirements needed to play the doctor.

    None of the above. Why not Lenny Henry? Or what about that dude from Planet Terror, Naveen Andrews? Or failing that, there's always Thandi Newton (rowr). Not to mention Gemma Atherton (rowr). Just a thought.
