I think I prefer a scouse Doctor to a Jock. Although the current Jock, like all good Scotsmen, does his best to disguise the fact

I'm not too keen on the estuary English he employs though, makes him sound really thick sometimes

I thought so too until David Tennant came along.
I saw Tom once drinking whisky in the Nags Head in Manchester city centre in the 90's.
Myself and Mr P were awestruck - especially as Mr P is the biggest DW fan on the planet.

Was he? He was certainly one of the best, but he wasn't sneering and bolshy though, was he.

I hated Ecclestone. Dr Who should never be a sneering bolshy northerner (that's not to say all northerners are sneering and bolshy)

Ecclestone was my favourite, helped by being a good actor!

It does help I suppose that I'm a sneering bolshy northerner

This new kid is far too young.... it'll look like Buffy the Dalek slayer

(anyone would think they made this programme for kids )

Apparently only 12 regens..... but I can't see that stopping a money making machine - if its still popular he (sic) will get regenned again and again...

IIRC, the Master only has a couple left (if any) and was plotting to steal some of the Doctor's regenerations.

I am an old fart - so John Pertwee is THE Doctor...... but Tenant wasn't bad..
Ecclestone was awful.... actually everyone between THE Dr and Tenant was tulip

Peter Davison was "my doctor".

It should be someone older. I don't look at this geezer and think: "there's a 700-year-old time lord".

The daleks will run rings round him.

I always thought that when the Time Lords regenerate, they always got younger (and that there were only so many regenerations that they could go through).

Certainly, that was the rule for the first 6, anyway.
