They Try to Make Me Play the Rani...

... but will she say no, no, no? Apparently, Amy Winehouse, famous for her soul music, is playing the Rani during Series 5. The latest rumours have appeared since Amy is a huge fan of the show. The Rani, who appeared in the classic series, is an evil scientific genius of a Time Lord (or should I say, Lady?) who took over planets and was generally, evil. Perhaps Amy Winehouse could fit this role? But given her recent problems and upcoming divorce, perhaps the rumours will just stay as rumours.

Alright Doctah?

Ever since the 11th Doctor was revealed on Saturday, the media's attention has now been turned to who will be the companion during Series 5. The favourites at the moment are singers Lily Allen and Rachel Stevens, and TV presenter Kelly Brook. Rumour has it that because Matt Smith is fairly unknown, a popular woman/man is going to be cast as his companion. Personally, I'd just be happy to see Rose return, but what do you think?

Questions! So Many Questions!

So the reveal of the next Doctor has caused all sorts of craziness but there are some questions we need answered! Thanks to Combom for the inspiration in this post!

- What will Doctor 11's personality be like? Crazy? Serious?
- What will he wear?
- Who will his companion be?
- How will Doctor 10 regenerate?
- Where will it happen?
- What will his last words be?
- What will Doctor 11's first words be?
- Is the TARDIS desktop theme/theme tune really changing, like rumours have implied?

Well there you go, think you can answer any?

And The 11th Doctor Is...

... Matt Smith! A fairly unknown actor who has starred in 'Ruby and the Smoke' with Billie Piper, former companion Rose Tyler. For some information about him click here. This is the youngest incarnation of the Doctor so far at a mere 26 years old! Is this too young to cope with all the attention he will be getting over the next year?

What do you think of this man as the Doctor? Will he be as good as David Tennant? Is he the right choice for the Doctor? Leave your comments below.

Eleventh Doctor Announced Tomorrow

The rumours were correct; the actor who will be playing the 11th Doctor will be announced during the 10 Doctors special tomorrow night on BBC One at 5.35pm. The BBC website has confirmed it here. The favourites to be the Doctor are Paterson Joseph (who played Rodrick in Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways) and even Catherine Zeta Jones... will there be a female Doctor?

What do you think of them announcing this? Is it a good move?

Confidential: The 10 Doctors

This Saturday, BBC One are airing a special Doctor Who Confidential entitled 'The 10 Doctors.' It seems odd they are showing this during prime time, at 5.35pm, on the main channel and not on BBC Three- this has sparked rumours that the actor who will be playing the 11th Doctor after David Tennant will be revealed during the programme. However, this has not been confirmed yet. Be sure to tune in on the 3rd of January to see this special programme!
