Matt Smith is the Eleventh Doctor
Well, what do we think?
Now much as I was rooting for Paterson Joseph, I am rather impressed. For Steven Moffat to decide on him instantly does suggest a certain Doctorishness pervaded his audition – and given his interview excerpts it does seem he is a quirky and physical presence so that’s all to the good.
If I might be forgiven a moment’s smugness I do have a confession: as soon as I saw the BBC’s list of runners and riders yesterday morning it was his name that stood out to me.
And my first thought was “oooh, now he could be interesting”.
I’m looking forward to seeing how it pans out.
Plus, I hope, a pretty damn spectacular exit for Mister T.

Got something to say?

He does have a endearing quirky nature which fits with the Doctor role…I too was rooting for Paterson Joseph but am interested in what Matt Smith is going to do with the role….and of course what about the new companion…could they go male for a change…I vote Russell Tovey
