Now, as my gloating best friend is happily reminding me, I am not very familiar with his work. I've only seen him in Skins, "Fires of Pompeii" and gifs of The Thick of It. But having said that, I am very happy with this choice because I really wanted someone older playing the Doctor. Also the fact that I am quite sure the Twelfth Doctor will be very different from my darling Eleven, which is good thing in this case because I will compare less.
And he's pretty awesome already.

So yaay! New Doctor!! And I love that he's a fan.
Capaldi is GOD. Seriously. I don't wathc the show, but man what an awesome news for you guys, check out The Thick of It - one of the greatest TV performances right there.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely agree. Super duper excited!
DeleteI'm still watching the David Tennant years (curse my real life) but I'm really excited for Peter. :D
ReplyDeleteLove Tennant! I'm excited too :D
DeleteI'm very very pleased they went with someone older than Matt Smith - I'm hoping for perhaps a return to the Christopher Eccleston era of Who :) Can't wait to see what Capaldi does with the role, I think he'll be fantastic!
ReplyDeleteAgreed on everything.
DeleteI've only seen a couple of episodes of The Thick of It, but he sounds hilarious and very talented. He *is* rather attractive... in an old way, but nice.
ReplyDeleteYep. He is, isn't he? ;-)
