I hope that Matt Smith carries on playing the Doctor for a long time, I really enjoy his portrayal. But when he moves on, as he eventually will, I’d like to make my suggestion as to who should replace him in the role. I think Vicky McClure would make a great Doctor. You may well have seen her brilliant performances in “This is England” where she demonstrated a huge emotional depth. She’d do a great job of delivering the range required by the character of the Doctor and looked powerful striding around in a big coat and boots in “This is England 86”. 🙂
I’ve even created a Facebook group to that effect which you can join if you think that I’m not totally talking out of my hat. http://tonywhitmore.co.uk/blog/2012/01/14/vicky-mcclure-the-next-doctor/
