Sorely missed:
Len Goodman
How about Stephen? It would certainly add some intellectual credibility to the programme.

Wouldn't he make a better Davros?
😆
Phoebe Waller-Bridge is a good shout, not sure they'd dare.
Return of Ecclestone? (Christopher or Bernie?)
How about Stephen? It would certainly add some intellectual credibility to the programme.
Would put the dalek battles on more of a level playing field.
I see that Harridan Harperson is 'demanding' that the Doctor is a woman, with a male companion who she can 'tell what to do, to show leadership'
The daft old baggage has clearly never watched any episodes of Doctor Who since it was brought back, otherwise she might have noticed that it's the female companions who tend to run rings around the Doctor.
But then, she's never been the sharpest button in the box.
And there's already a female Time Lord, just not the Doctor, (yet).
Olivia Colman would be my choice.
more of a level playing field

Return of Ecclestone?
There's more chance of me doing it. I don't know exactly what happened but our Mr Eccleston had something of a falling-out with the showrunners. "My face didn't fit" is what he said IIRC. He's had a number of opportunities to return to the role and rejected them all.
Whoever plays it, they need to have that slight air of eccentricity or borderline insanity/mania that seems to go with being a time lord.
Agreed, but they also need some gravitas. Tom Baker tells you to run, you bloody well run.
This is where they fell down with Matt Smith IMHO, there's a scene near the end of his tenure where he's shouting down the universe and I wanted the universe to shout back, "who the hell are you, you look about 16 and you're ten stone wet through. Piss off and take that stupid hat with you."
If we're going to have a previous doctor return, my vote would be for Paul McGann. I've been listening to the Big Finish audiobooks and he's brilliant.

I'm already bloody running, sunbeam.

Daleks have been flying since 1988.
Lenny Henry has never been and never will be "awesome".One of the most overrated, talent-less, media stars of his generation. He should stick to Premier Inn adverts, About his level.
You don't know nuffink!
I've not watched the video but "Dalek Flies" - is that what a Dalek wees through?
If idris Elba is going to be Bond, how about Daniel Craig as the Doctor?
Edit - @wwaswas yes, but the reason you never see them going is because of the number of buttons they have to do up afterwards - they're covered in them.
How about ..

Mary Berry, then we can have a Gingerbread Tardis, and some Daleks made from Meringue
Ray Stevenson. Started typing that as a joke, changed my mind.

Look at that- Doctor eyes.
Actually, I don't think I've ever seen this suggested though maybe I've just noticed, but Tilda Swinton. Don't know if they can afford her but she'd be bloody perfect.
I'd be [i]very[/i] surprised if there's a female doctor (this time around at least). They've ticked that box with Missy relatively recently, it'd be seen as a cop-out to do the same trick twice so soon.
Oooh ho, so we've had "the good, the bad and the ugly" what about the sublimely beautiful ..

Maxine Peake gets my vote.
House vote here goes to Richard Ayoade, but we'd all cancel evening plans to watch Tim Roth or Johnny Lee Miller.
Lenny Henry would be awesome, but given his generous height, they'd have to remodel the TARDIS front door.
OK then Warwick Davis. Seriously.
James May, eccentric, mad hair, overweight middle aged male,who likes assembling things, mechanicaly minded,slightly posh etc, just think what he could do with a sonic screwdriver.
Donald Trump, seems to be from another planet the press is trying to make the gulible believe, mad hair, strange eyes, charismatic personality, and a top bloke,most of the time.
Jeremey Clarkson, inteligent,personable,slightly eccentric views from a past age,chatty and funny,would soup up the Tardis, go faster stripes and a 0 to 1 million light years in seconds.
It will be an over priced under-qualified locum surely.
Dr Fox, because he already has significant Doctorial experience???
😆
Ok, sit right down, prepare for applause..
I give you...
Dr Frank n Furter..
It's soooooo Obvz, I'm proud of bringing this to you.. (small finders fee applicable)

I'd like to suggest Iwan Rheon.
And his Misfits colleague Antonia Thomas as the gorgeous doc's assistant.
BOOM!

Helena Bonham Carter.
She'd be bonkers at it.
A bird with big norks.
Dr. Whooters?

Can go totally OTT but sharp and able to switch on an instant
Maxine Peake is also a good shout, not ayoade thanks
Sue Perkins is another name that's cropped up occasionally.
I think Eddie Redmayne would make a good doctor, he's got a sense of quirkiness about his character that would suit the role
Hayley Atwell, bloody ace as Agent Carter and rumour is the show she's on now isn't getting a second series. Plus she's shown an interest in the role.
Rolf Harris would bring something new to the role.
Philomena Cunk
Underlying Doctor Who was always a deep hope and faith in humanity.
Given how things are at the moment, I think perhaps the series could do with taking a break for a while, until that's a bit more believable.
Perhaps Blake's Seven instead.
Maxine Peake.
She should have got it last time.
Nicola Walker would be good too, and Julie Walters would be excellent.
I like Peter Capaldi and enjoyed the return to shorter, self contained stories.
He should have stayed on a bit.
Well Michael Sheen just moved back to Wales
