    What's your point Ubes - over-representation of Lizards? It is a sci-fi fantasy after all.

    If it were over here he would have to be the new "in" thing. Transgender.

    Although i am a dyed in the wool Doctor Who fan (arguably its played as big a part in my life as the hoops) I've stayed clear of this thread so far. The whole next doctor being a woman used to be a publicity stunt former producer John Nathan Turner would chuck out to stir up some tabloid column inches and annoy the anoraks. Steven Moffat who has really instigated the gender change as a genuine possibility appears to go out of his way to antagonise the hard Corp old school fans largely by spunking his ego all over the show. I think deep down I probably am slightly against changing the gender of the character because I can't see the justification for it story wise and to me it would be done just to satisfy an agenda not because it's necessarily right. Also I think since it returned 10+ years ago the show has had an abundance of great female roles covering a huge age spectrum, it's a veritable who's who (sorry). Just off the top of me head we've had Pauline Collins, Olivia Colman, Carey Mulligan, Sarah Lancashire, Myra Syaal, Sophie Okonedo, Michelle Collins, Michelle Ryan, Zoe Wannamaker, Thelma Barlow, Sarah Parish, Catherine Tate, Suranne Jones, Leslie Sharp, Alex Kingston, Michele Gomez, Keeley Hawes to name a few and not forgetting launching the careers of Billie Piper, Freeman Ageymang and Karen Gillan. So I don't think the producers have a case to answer in terms of not providing enticing roles for actresses. I do think the show has stagnated under Grand Moffat Tarkin and whether the next doctor is female or not will hopefully get a new lease once he's pushed off. That was a long geeky way of saying I think they'll play it safe (young, white, male, pretty) but also that they shouldn't necessarily have to justify not making the character female.

    Left his Death in Paradise gig so I could easily see it. Would be the epitome of playing it safe though.

    I think the next Dr. Who should be a Jellyfish That should shut everyone up!
