Now the wait is over and the time has come to see who has been tapped as the next Doctor.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the 12th Doctor, Peter Capaldi.

For those who don’t know this 55 year old actor/director, he’s best known for his role as foul-mouthed spin doctor Malcolm Tucker in The Thick of It but he’s no stranger to the Whoniverse, having played Caecilius in the Season 4 episode Fires of Pompeii (also notable for Karen Gillan’s first appearance in the Whoniverse) and as John Frobisher in Torchwood: Children of Earth. And yes, he played “WHO Doctor” in World War Z, but I don’t care… It’s neither cute nor clever.

 

What do you guys think of the choice? He’s a solid actor and he’s definitely a unique choice so he’ll probably bring something to the role we’ve not seen before but only time will tell. His first appearance will be this Christmas!
