Of course they do. Doesn't mean they'd ever get the gig unless the Beeb were trying to make a political statement out of it, as per the previous century when left to their own devices and they didn't get a look in.Yes of course mate because there's no way a black man would have the talent or ability to play this role.

Apologies mate.I meant in terms of global name recognition, rather than attributes.
Doctor Who has a habit of being a springboard to "unknowns" and the end up doing bigger and better roles in the future.

Fantastic actor, it's great to have someone who is such a star of the moment come to Doctor Who.
Not just a great figure in terms of talent, but in terms of bringing new people to the show as well.

You win FOC post of the day! Good work Agent Pole.No, just poor. Shame on you having at go at the impoverished poor.
Back in my day, we would have killed for a Black and White TV. It was but a futile dream, not a good dream either, a hazy, what the fuck, oh it’s gone and I didn’t even see her tits, type of dream.
Aren’t all the topknot hipsters getting them now, to prove they are the utter cunts we all knew them to be?
I guess. I think from the reboot Christopher Eccleston and Peter Capaldi were well established, David Tennant maybe less so? Either way, great opportunity for the lad.Apologies mate.

Doubt the BBC were much or at all involved in the choice,Of course they do. Doesn't mean they'd ever get the gig unless the Beeb were trying to make a political statement out of it, as per the previous century when left to their own devices and they didn't get a look in.

The "they" you are referring to means black people, yeah?Of course they do. Doesn't mean they'd ever get the gig unless the Beeb were trying to make a political statement out of it, as per the previous century when left to their own devices and they didn't get a look in.

Matt Smith and Karen Gillian are huge the states.I guess. I think from the reboot Christopher Eccleston and Peter Capaldi were well established, David Tennant maybe less so? Either way, great opportunity for the lad.
Andrew Garfield became Spiderman.
As you say a fantastic opportunity.
The show needs a huge reeboot and I believe this lad will be the Jump on point for a new younger audience.
