Dr Who.... gives a feck.

Watched the 3rd and 4th episode of the new BBC1 Dr Who Series last night and it still left me feeling rather let down. It was all very entertaining but The Doctor (played by Chris Eccleston on E) is far too "happy cheeky chappie" for my liking. Not too many silly jokes this episode though and there were parts that could really be described as "Contains Mild Peril". And now they have announced that after Mr Eccleston has totally ditched the show after this first series and taken the upper-lip with the whole silly affair - they have cast another wet looking british fop in the role for the next series! Downhill from here then....

I think Christopher Ecclestone plays the role of the doctor superbly. Just the right mix of humanity and alien craziness.

However, I have to agree that it looks like they've got a right twat for the new series, I still think Ade Edmondson would have been the best choice.

Ade?
Now that would be silly!
