This isn't just a list of actresses, but a well thought-out, and witty, article spelling out the characters of the different incarnations and the background behind their casting (in this alternate universe).
Now, I'll be honest and admit that I'm an old stick-in-the-mud who strongly believes our Doctor should never change gender. However, a different character - this Doctor - I would have enthusiastically watched every week.
In fact, I'm all in favour of the BBC starting a parallel - but interconnected - show about this female Gallifreyan. When there was the mandatory brouhaha and rumour mill about a new companion for The Eleventh Doctor I was a strong advocate of the suggestion that it should be Miranda Hart, but now I see her better used in the Whoniverse as a headlining Time Lady.
That was entertaining!
ReplyDeleteI had to look a few of them just to get enough grounding to know what was begin said. ;)
Yes, I hadn't thought about that, but many are iconic British actresses that may not be as well known elsewhere.
DeleteGood fodder for Doctor Who: Adventures In Time & Space inspiration though ;)
