I’ve been watching Doctor Who since the second Doctor, and I must say I am a fan of the “pretty boy”, as you put it. And why not? Women in SciFi have always been bomb shells! And if that is what it takes to keep my beloved Doctor Who on television, I will tolerate every mention of Rose and ten and swoon right with them at the next hunky doctor. Good stories, a good actor and a heck a lot of fun are my requirements for Doctor Who!!

2) Less manic, but that’s the plots, not the actor. Matt proved he could play “quiet” just fine, but Moff didn’t let up for more than an instant w/the pinball performance requirements for series 6 – 7.

3) Possibly more growl-ey, somewhat akin to CE, or to nearly any Dr. before ’96.

4) Someone who can play “alien” well. Not a fan of bland “but he’s so human and lovable” Dr. elements.

5) Hopefully someone as UGLY AS SIN, just to remind folks the Dr. is not inherently a pretty boy.

Yes Defo Damian Molony has a much darker doctor so we get to see that slither of ice in his heart surface. This may sound strange but I would like the 11th doctor to commit suicide because he cant take it anyone from what happens after the 50th to do with john hurts doctor this would lead brilliantly to a tortured damian molony 12th doctor

Bit harsh to say CE left for more money. He says he left because he disagreed with the working conditions (perhaps treatment of low-ranked staff by the bigwigs) and the BBC have not refuted this. In fact originally the BBC made a statement that CE found the work schedule too “gruelling” but very quickly rescinded the statement and apologised. CE is OK in my book and I’d love to see him back in the show at some point – he was a FANTASTIC rebooted doctor.
