[Update] Matt Smith is the new Doctor Who

This thread is intended to be a companion to http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/23...l#post34664745.

With the news that David Tennant is to step down as Doctor Who after the specials (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7698539.stm ), who do you think would be a good doctor?

I have to admit, I am not sure, but I personally think that Alan Rickman, David Thewlis or Steve Coogan could pull it off. I also think that Patrick Stewart could be good, but you run the risk that a lot of people would see him as Captain Picard or Professor Xavier playing Doctor Who.

I realise that none of those is likely to happen (they would cost too much).

Now that I'd watch

In all seriousness though.....is there anything anywhere in the back story that says that Dr Who can't be female?
