I just don't like the idea of a time lord changing sex, it is just wrong. I honestly believe the idea came about as a joke and has gotten out of hand, The Dr is a man and should always be a man. Strangely however I don't have a problem with a coloured doctor just female

No way in hell I'd be watching if Brand were The Doctor, can't stand him.

For me a female Doctor is a tough sell tbh. It would be difficult to make people believe its the same character, after all they are still supposed to be the same person that started out as Hartnell, plus if it didn't take with the general audience not the fans then the ratings could then be a problem rather than they are currently. Also if that were the case then they would try and revert back and she (no matter how good an actor she is) would either be the worst Doctor or blamed for its decline/failure.

Doesn't mean it won't happen eventually, time will tell.........

I would to see Rusty as 12

I think he'd be excellent.

I was thinking the very same thing. Cant abide Russell Brand at the best of times (always think he looks like he could do with a good wash

)

Also Dr Who is a man....not a woman. The women in the Dr's life have always been his side kicks.

I have faith that the production team have the sense not to cast him so I wouldn't worry.

Indeed so!
Actually for all his faults he's not a bad actor, and could have pleasantly surprised everyone in the role of the Doctor.
Not going to happen though.........

I feel sorry for Brand. He gets a rough old time...partly of his own making...due to his public persona but he writes very well, seems very thoughtful and switched on and all in all a decent sort. As the doctor? Probably not but its a better shout than Chris Moyles (or a woman).

snakecharmer37 · 07/06/13 - 21:14

If this poor excuse of a human ever became the Doctor, then it would be finished. That.......I hesitate to call him a man, is so disliked after the Sachsgate farce.
Then there's the fact he is a woman beater, a heroin addict and been arrested more times I can count.
Sure, he would be a fantastic role model wouldn't he....I don't think.
You may as well have Pol Pot as the next Doctor, he would be less controversial.

mikey1980 · 07/06/13 - 21:18

He can want to be Doctor Who, but he never will be.

He has no gravitas and no screen presence. To be honest, I don't find him remotely funny.

andy1231 · 07/06/13 - 21:22

Fail to see the appeal of Brand he is about as funny as leprosy and as appealing as a squashed hedgehog .And please no more threads or debates about a female Doctor, thats been done to death and there are still a number of open threads on that matter.

Dogmatix · 07/06/13 - 21:24

Don't like him at all at all. Especially after that unforgivable trick he and his almost equally reprehensible colleague John Ross played on Andrew Sachs.

Wait a minute... there's a thought... Andrew Sachs as the Doctor? ¿Qué?

Big Boy Barry · 07/06/13 - 21:26

The BBC saw the remake of Arthur

They know he can't act.

[Deleted User] · 07/06/13 - 21:45

no :mad:no ax

Gill P · 07/06/13 - 21:49

This is getting silly! As I said before I reckon The Doctor is already cast.

GilaGora · 07/06/13 - 21:51

I'd probably boycott the show forever. Brand is so irritating it's unreal.

meglosmurmurs · 07/06/13 - 22:02

I think he could be rather funny. Though I'd rather he do a tv show about his Goth Detectives partnership with Noel Fielding rather than take the lead role of 'sumink' else that's already established.

It's not silly guessing who is who next is part of the fun, I don't care if they've cast already I'm enjoying this

brouhaha · 07/06/13 - 22:46

Russell Brand wants a slap. Cock.

[Deleted User] · 07/06/13 - 22:53

No.
Just no..

Oily little creep. :mad:

Sophie ~Oohie~ · 07/06/13 - 22:57

Russell Brand can cluck off. He's about as funny as a nuclear accident, and less interesting to have in Doctor Who.

WinterFire · 07/06/13 - 23:08

If Russell Brand was The Doctor, would it really still be believable that he was travelling through space and time with a nubile young companion, but he wasn't sh*gg*ng her?

Hey there!
