Oh! Unlikely, given the recent tendency towards younger Doctors, but how good would Peter Capaldi be?
Also: Jason Watkins would be interesting.

Nobody expects the older Doctor...
Tendencies can be reversed, just look at British politics. And the ascendency of Phillip Schofield.

Here's a crazy hypothetical: Tom Hardy.

Ohmigod it's Peter Capaldi!!!!!
Could not be happier with this choice. @ Flint: Tom Hardy was also on my list of best actors to play the Doctor. Would love to see what he made of it. But of all of them Capaldi is my dream Doctor.

Sorry, Flint. I did post after I knew Capaldi was the new Doctor.
I heard on 5 Live and the way it was handled made me quite cross. To be fair to the presenter, he is a cricket expert, and it just happened to be announced while he was presenting. He made a couple of numbskull comments including "Peter Capaldi uses quite strong language in The Thick of It.." Eh? Capaldi = ACTOR not scriptwriter. He also kept referring to the new Doctor Who. No, he is the new Doctor. I know that's geeky, but this is a BBC radio station for goodness sake. I do have to forget my dislike of Frobisher (Torchwood: Children of Earth) Capaldi gave a great performance of a shitty person. But I do associate his face as that of a shitty person. But yes, I am happy with the choice. I can have a crush on someone older than I am again. Never fancied Smith, just enjoyed him. Tennant edged in as just over a year older than me but gosh he looked younger. My main question is whether he will be a Scottish Doctor, or an English one? Either is good for me.

I didn't know they already picked the new Doctor.
I just have a non-gay man crush on Tom Hardy. He can be sophisticated, threatening (with subtlety), and just look at the--possibly crazed--intensity in that picture--doesn't he remind you of someone how reminds you of someone? . . . Plus, a Doctor who can kick your ass?

Oh I've always likes Tom Hardy.
Did you see him in 'Stuart: A Life Backwards'? Compared to his role in Bronson: Amazingly versatile actor

My God, no I have not seen Stuart: A Life Backwards. But I will now.
To perpetuate the non-sequitur: Tom Hardy will play George Mallory in Everest, and also will star in a new Mad Max film--both in 2014.

And here is me still pining for Tom Baker. I even knitted a scarf like his for one of my sons.

I believe there may be pics here of my wife, Pooka, with the Tom Baker scarf she knitted, to spec. If not I'll have to post them.
