Lenny Henry would be awesome, but given his generous height, they’d have to remodel the TARDIS front door. Wouldn’t be an issue once he’d be inside though.
One of the most overrated, talent-less, media stars of his generation. He should stick to Premier Inn adverts, About his level.
Well, ‘his generation’ were pretty much entirely white, so he deserves some praise for kicking at the door that allowed black people onto our TV screens. And his recent Shakespearean outings have been much praised. But you obviously know better.
Would Idris Elba really be the right sort of person to play the Doctor? He’s got this aura of playing a hardman and that does not fit well with something like Doctor Who? You might as well suggest Jason Statham.
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.
I just think after all the “individual” and “quirky” types it would be good to see a more aggressive/angry/moody type. Instead of reliance on intellect and knowledge, a good thump or kick in the nuts would see the monsters off.
X-Factor, yeah..that’s me alright.
What about this guy? He could raise one eyebrow at the offending imminent invasion and they’d all turn hightail and head home, or should he make contact he could wash his grubby hands after the “encounter”..
