Welcome to the Official Redemption® Message Board!
So.Spoiler (hover to show) Peter Capaldi.What do you guys think?I must admit that I am very much looking forward to seeing him as the Doctor. Good to have an older actor again.
Spoiler (hover to show)Random trivia: His character in the Pompeii episode owned the TARDIS. (They'd better play off that previous role at least once.)See him and David Tennant with it here: https://twitter.com/486Genii/status/364187802851737602/photo/1/large
I was hoping for a female doctor. Maybe Capaldi will play it transgender.

I'm a lore junkie and admittedly I would actually have a hard time accepting a female doctor. I would watch it, sure, but the continuity would be all broken and I don't know if I'd enjoy it as much.* = In the reboot since 2005, I haven't seen many episodes of the older series if there's gender swapping back then.
