Dr Who err Missus
Wouldn't mind a female Dr Who, especially if she was a leather clad mistress type figure with a male assistant on a leash.

Please provide some examples of Carlisle playing complicated and sometimes dark characters!
I thought he played pretty much the same character in Full Monty, Once Upon a Time in the Midlands, 28 Weeks Later. He was rubbish in 51st state.Comment

estuary English dumbed down David Tennant version
The dumbed-down estuary English accent was deliberately written in to the character / script.
Probably to appeal to the "masses".
To be honest, I don't know of any of my friends who talk "Jamie".Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

As for the examples...
Cracker - scouse psycho
James Bond - Pretty nasty psycho villian
Pretty good Hitler in the rise of Evil
Begbie in trainspotting
All very different characters. He has played a few similar roles though, but never just plays himself like some more famous 'actors'. In some ways similar to Eccleston but better at accents.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
