I've tried watching Doctor Who many times since the 1970's. It's just not my cup of tea. My first Doctor Who was Tom Baker.

It’s just not my cup of tea.

In fact he's a very Doctory actor and, so long as people can get past the artifical worry about his age, he'll be brilliant. Watch the Sally Lockhart mysteries. Watch Party Animals. Heck even watch Secret Diary of a Call Girl if you want. He's also got a strong theatre background which always helps. Oh - and he seems genuinely pumped to have been offered the role. Let's face it - the Doctor is a 900 year old plus Time Lord. No actor can play his age realistically. Instead, pick a good actor (who is only two years younger than Peter Davison was when he was offered the part), mix in some good scripts and production values and it will all be ok. Keep your Tennant DVDs for your DVD player where they will be a reminder of your first Doctor and slip a photo of Matt under your pillow while he's at the helm of the TARDIS console. You'll like it :) Have fun, Damon Hi there Karen,

And even though I am saddened, I have vowed not to get hysterical...atleast not yet. It just seems such a shame that Tennant has decided to move on past the Who-niverse. I had hoped he would stay longer than this, but I am thankful for even discovering the show and Mr. Tennant. And I, also, have been allayed in my sadness by the revelation of the next Doctor. I liked his interview and wish him the best. But also, like you, I will miss my pretty boy in a pinstriped suit. David Tennant is also ‘my’ Doctor.
