My Twelfth Doctor By HappyRussia Watch

I'm enjoying Matt Smith's current tenure as The Doctor, but I've been thinking about the good Doctor's 12th incarnation. I thought of quite a few prominent British actors; Martin Freeman, Robert Carlyle....



Then I thought of the obvious choice: Someone who's totally NOT obvious! Much like the choosing of Matt Smith, this one's a bit of an unknown. Or WAS. Now, he's a famed late-night talk show host, he's been on programs spanning nearly three decades, ranging from "The Drew Carey Show" to "Red Dwarf."



I vote Craig Ferguson for the role of The Twelfth Doctor! Aside from who will play the good Doctor, I figured out how he'll behave, his quirks, etc. This Doctor's obviously quite steampunk, from his goggles, down to his Victorian-era patterned coat and golden cogwheel lapel pin. He's a grungier, more hands-on Doctor, but still has the amazing intellect to outwit the likes of The Master, the Daleks and the Cybermen.



I can envision him behaving much like a combination of the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) and Ninth Doctor (Chris Eccelson), retaining his ingenious nature, but also behaving in a rather outgoing manner with a hint of mad scientist, ala Herbert West, or someone of the like.



Made in Adobe Photoshop CS3. Craig Ferguson belongs to himself, Doctor Who belongs to BBC Television, c. 1963-2010.
