I think he will be quite good, we have a year to wait to find out.

Really? Dr. Who fans have a year to anticipate? He's in big trouble :)

I've just looked at that link and i agree with you Yeovil.

I'd never heard from him before today, he's quite unknown, i would guess in his early 20's?

Been in a couple of decent things on tv, which i can't remember!

He seemed to appreciate on the Dr Who Confidential which was just on what a big part it was etc, i don't think they will.

From wiki...

In January 2009, his casting was announced as the Gay Eleventh Doctor in the long running BBC science fiction series Doctor Who, taking over from David Tennant. Filming will start in summer 2009 for broadcast in spring 2010.[2][3]

I don't think many recognized actors would have touched it after Tennant had done so well. Had to be an up and coming relatively unknown actor.

Mrs NMH says he 'looks like a Dr Who', so thats ok then!

Moffat is taking over the writing, I trust him not to.

Moffat's episodes have tended to be the more thoughtful and less "flash bang" in the last couple of seasons. I'd trust him not to fuck it up.
