I see Peter Capaldi's 'look' for Dr Who has been unveiled... must say I rather like the cut of his jib! OK, that's nautical but you get my gist... I've not watched Dr Who since my kids were little but I might just be tempted by this new incarnation...

i thought he looked more like a magician than a dr who....

He's very good at playing the villain e.g. in Musketeers, lets hope he can be a bit less sinister as The Doctor.
(but I still think they were wimps not to cast a woman for a change, so there!)

Yes, I was hoping to see Sarah Millican cast as the first woman Doctor Who. Anybody else got any ideas?

Papaoscar, couldn't agree more, how about Sandi Toksvig, I think she would be great.

Sandi Toksvig would have been great but Sarah Millican, really??Shudder.

Doesn't anybody like Peter Capaldi???

Ok, maybe not SM after all, but what about Anne Robinson then, she really puts the frighteneders on me so what chance would the Daleks have?
