I am so excited about Eleven. Nine was MY Doctor, and it took me two series to warm up to David Tennant as Ten, and now I'm bored of him and ready for a change.
Eleven looked very emo at first, but once you watch the interview with him, he seems a lot more natural and down-to-earth. He also uses his hands alot, which I think is kind of quirky and Doctor-like -- Ten was rather manic like that too, only he was more about the "eyebrows wagging" and "bugging eyes out of his head".

The BBC today announced that Matt Smith has been cast in the role of the Doctor in the iconic BBC series Doctor Who. Smith will be the eleventh Time Lord and will take over from David Tennant who leaves the show at the end of 2009. He will be seen in the forthcoming fifth series that will be broadcast in 2010. The fifth series will also have a new lead writer and Executive Producer in the form of the BAFTA award winning writer Steven Moffat who is taking over from Russell T Davies. Moffat will be joined by Piers Wenger who will be the new Executive Producer for BBC Wales making the show. Following David Tennant's decision to step down at the end of 2009, the team behind the new series set about casting the new Doctor so that new adventures could be created and scripts written with Matt in mind. The identity of the new Doctor was revealed on a special edition of Doctor Who Confidential that was broadcast on BBC One on January 3rd at 17.35hrs. In it Smith revealed his initial reaction at taking on such a legendary role and his thoughts on what direction the Doctor might now be going with him playing the part. Matt Smith said of his new role "I'm just so excited about the journey that is in front of me. It's a wonderful privilege and challenge that I hope I will thrive on. I feel proud and honoured to have been given this opportunity to join a team of people that has worked so tirelessly to make the show so thrilling. http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/s4/ne...090103_news_01 |
