Doctor Who? - Exactly!

When it was finally officially announced that Peter Capaldi was to be the 12th Doctor, I admit I had to google him to realise who he was… AAND I admit I was one of those Whovians that didn't totally agree with the choice… I have watched him in things previously and yes, he's a good actor (the first person with an Oscar to be appointed as the doctor…), but I just couldn't see him fitting number 12. However, I've become a lot more open to the choice and I'm excited to see his take on the Doctor. 

Still, to the people saying 'I wish it was someone I actually knew', let's be fair, you probably didn't know who Matt was when he was announced as 11, and I'm sure you love him now... 

Hopefully, Moffat will sort out some good story lines for Capaldi, after all isn't that what a show is about, the actual underlined storyline OR has it been so 'fandomised' the actors are supposed to be young, good looking and fit the mould? Well to be honest, I think it's a nice idea to get an older person to play the Doctor,  he's the same age as the first Doctor - William Hartnell. 

To others talking about him 'already being in Doctor Who in Fires of Pompeii' so have many others. In fact, the sixth doctor appeared on the show and arrested the fifth doctor before he was announced as the doctor, Karen Gillan was also in 'Fires of Pompeii' before she was Amy Pond. Freema Agyeman appeared as Adeola before she was Martha... And Gwen from Torchwood has appeared in DW as a different character too, to name a few others… 

Also, pointed out by someone else…  Peter Capaldi looks like an aged Arthur Darvill… 

But, the main thing that's annoyed me… He's STILL NOT GINGER.
