I've been saying stott for years you jonny come lately

but yes, he would make a great doctor. The compact brooding shape, the face that can veer from jocularity to menace in the space of a syllable. yes.

True. But hear me out. Instead of offering people jelly babies, she could offer people olives.

 

[DotCommunist]

no. This is where we part ways. Olives are rank

And people could say that. And she'd be - "suit yourself. Mind if I play Forever and Ever on my recorder?"

Who are these people? Patterson Joseph? Joe thingummy. I don't know anything anymore.

I don't know who Joe thingummy is, but Paterson Joseph (I suppose it helps people to look him up if I spell his first name correctly ) is IMO a good actor who is probably most well known for a side-character in Peep Show (iirc he was Mark's boss from season 2 onwards?), and one of the main characters in the remake of Survivors - the show was a bit crap, but he was the best thing about it. He would make a great Doctor, and I've been saying that since Tennant resigned from the role! One day they will listen to me.

Scooby don't.

I said it as a joke, obv, but I bet she would actually be great at it.

 

[danny la rouge]

• Benedict Cumberbatch (6/1) - This would be shit.
• Russel Tovey (9/1) - This would be shit.
• Stephen Mangan (14/1) - No, wrong.
• David Walliams (20/1) - I'd stop watching. He's creepy.
• Daniel Radcliffe (25/1) - FFS.
• Bill Bailey (50/1) - He'd love it. But nobody else would.

I'm very surprised Rory Kinnear is so high, wouldn't have thought he was what they were looking for at all. Could do a lot worse, mind.

e2a: If he hadn't already been in it, Russel Tovey would be a decent shout. In fact I'm pretty sure RTD said he should get it last time round.

Please god not Steven Mangan, he's great and all but what he's great at is playing really irritating characters.

Bill Bailey can't act. Daniel Radcliffe is already too famous as Harry Potter to take on another cult role, but then again Martin Freeman somehow got to be Arthur Dent, Doc Watson and Bilbo Baggins so who knows. I loved Russel Tovey in Being Human but somehow he's rubbish in everything else. David Walliams is just rubbish across the board.
