The movie need not be at the end of the current sequence. Eccleston would be a good choice, and would also use Rose, which is totally commercial.

Why not Eccleston again? Or Ewen McGregor? I saw him disavow the role on Craig Ferguson last night 🙂 Make the bastard do it!

He gets to play young parts. Or Harrison Ford? Might as well totally Americanize the thing, it would sell better. Or maybe a Country Western Singer.

If you long for the old eccentric type, John Cleese would be excellent (and I’d pay to see him as the hobo who gets possessed by the Time Lord). However, the “brand managers” would never approve because the Doctor in Vogue is a young’un.

To which you reply “who?”…

I thought the BBC were not too happy about this project ~ has that changed?
