Rubin Farr Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 being an American who is Peter Capaldi? British tv star I'm assuming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delet... Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 He looks like a villian in the image for that youtube video. I do appreciate that it's finally a more mature individual though. I always thought that you should look up to the doctor, who's this kindly uncle like figure, gently and sometimes firmly helping those lower lifeforms on earth.

delet... Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 As much as i like armando iannucci, i could not bear watching a show about office politics on the grand stage of actual politics. I was quite happy with Yes Minister/Prime Minister and didn't need to take it any further. Not to mention that i see those things more as dramas than cutting edge wit delivery devices. And i fucking hate dramas (that don't have animated characters(but they're usually doing stuff instead of just standing around moaning)). People being nasty to each other all the time is not at all my cup of tea, it's bad enough getting it at work, on the road to work, ..... you know what i mean. This doesn't invalidate your interest in that program and film. ;-] Just pointing out one of my quirks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoodie Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 they're gonna alienate their fanbase with this. the only reason all those teenage girls watch doctor who is so they can fantasize about having the doctor whisk them away in his space-time machine. sooo yeah.

pcock Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 malcom tucker is one of my favourite characters of all time, never seen doctor who before but this seems like a good time to start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 It's nice to see twitter so united on their support for the man. And it's a bloody ace choice too (erm, not that I watch Doctor Who) For overseas-ers, this is how he's best known over here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLlEdEx3tn8 (well also for being fucking good at acting too, but just more immediately recognised for his cursing) i fucking hate dramas (that don't have animated characters(but they're usually doing stuff instead of just standing around moaning))Buh ?

joshuatxuk Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 This has actually perked my interest in Dr. Who again. I watched most of the Tennant episodes and all of series 4, which had an episode featuring Capaldi. He was particularly memorable in the Torchwood:_Children_of_Earth series.

Joyrex Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I'm chuffed beyond belief it's Capaldi - none of this youngin' wet-behind-the-years stuff we've had for the past two regenerations - hopefully Capaldi's Doctor will be more serious, mysterious, and dare I say "darker" in his determinations...

spratters Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Can't say I've ever watched Dr Who but I may give it a go now. For one episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Neil Gaiman is claiming a black British actor (I'm assuming Idris Elba) turned down the role before it was offered to Capaldi. although after his awful acting in Pacific Rim, maybe that's a good thing.

Gaiman seems (although unclear) to be referring to the prior casting, when Matt Smith was being auditioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Tom Baker to appear in Day of the Doctor. Sweet Supposedly - Tom is crafty like that, and at his age, he is all out of fucks to give. Still, it will be nice to see him if true. Rumours are he may play a museum curator, or a patron a la John Cleese appearing in 1979's City of Death.
