What will it take to be the 12th Doctor?

It’s the end of another era for Doctor Who, as Matt Smith announced on Saturday that he is to leave the show this Christmas. He will not return for 2014’s Series 8, as fans had previously expected him to, and he now has only two stories – the anniversary special and the 2013 Christmas special – left in his tenure. In four short years, Smith has brought a continuum of excitement, exuberance, sinister darkness and interesting headwear to the role, and he’ll be sorely missed by fans.

Doctor Who wouldn’t be the fifty-year-old institution of a show that it is though without its aspect of change. Smith is merely the eleventh man to fly to the TARDIS, and though mourning has begun in the Whoniverse, speculation has already gripped fans of who the Twelfth Doctor will be.

Matt Smith somewhat broke with tradition when he was cast at the age of 26 to portray a 900-year-old man. Though many doubted that he could handle the role, he’s impressed both fans and critics and achieved what many believed was an impossible task, of following in the footsteps of David Tennant. Thanks to Smith’s eccentric portrayal, the role has never been more open to actors; the days of BBC English have gone for the Doctor, thanks to David Tennant’s faux-cockney twang and Christopher Eccleston’s Mancunian take on the Time Lord (“lots of planets have a north!”), and Moffat has even hinted that the Doctor may regenerate into a woman one day.

Both Idris Elba and Chiwetel Ejiofor being linked with the role – and for the role of Bond in Elba’s case – certainly indicates that the Doctor isn’t limited to being white, and the surprisingly high odds for David Tennant to return really does suggest that fans believe anything can happen.

If there’s one quality that Moffat and co. will be looking for in a potential new lead though, it’s a mercurial streak. The Doctor is an exciting, impulsive, genuinely hilarious and painfully lonely character that’s been unrivalled by any other television personality, past or present, and it though it takes a great actor to portray him, it takes someone with a special charisma. Jon Pertwee may have been in his fifties when he took the role, but he invigorated the character with energetic enthusiasm and an action-man quality; likewise, Tom Baker felt like a true alien, and David Tennant connected so powerfully with his audience because he brought a sense of fun to the character that Christopher Eccleston didn’t, for all the doom and gloom of the Time War.

Whilst surprise bookies’ frontrunner, 35-year-old Rory Kinnear (Skyfall), has both the presence and demeanour to take on the role of a thousand-year-old Gallifreyan, it’s no wonder that Benedict Cumberbatch is a name being touted by fans. Cumberbatch, who’s already worked with Moffat and expressed interest at a long-term role in Who, has earned enthusiasts a-plenty for his masterfully capricious take on Sherlock Holmes; though it may prove more than Doctor Who – something that he can’t exactly film much around – to prize him away from his ever-accumulating admirers in Hollywood, he’s certainly the figure of a Doctor that fans want to see.

Cheaper, easier options may prove to be Ben Whishaw (also of Skyfall), Rafe Spall (Prometheus, Life of Pi), Robert Sheehan (Misfits) or even a certain Hugh Laurie, who’s back in the UK after completing the last series of House.

It might seem unlikely that the BBC will cast anyone other than the archetypal white, middle class British 35-year-old male to play the Doctor, because the world are watching; not only because of the anniversary, but also due to the rising profile of the show overseas. But surely if there’s one thing that Matt Smith has taught us, it’s that anyone can be the Doctor: it doesn’t matter if the lead actor is 26, or if he’s Scottish, shaven-headed, short, hat-wearing or only available for a year. The character of the Doctor boils down to two rather contradictory traits: the years of pain and loss that gives the show its drama and heartbreak, and the otherworldly silliness that appeals to children. It doesn’t matter who it is: as long as he feels like the Doctor, he’s right

We knew this day would arrive one day or another however I myself just didn't see it being so soon.

I am devastated to see my favorite Doctor leave the screens but am happy to see him get on with his otehr career projects !

This is what he said on it:


“Doctor Who has been the most brilliant experience for me as an actor and a bloke, and that largely is down to the cast, crew and fans of the show. I’m incredibly grateful to all the cast and crew who work tirelessly every day, to realise all the elements of the show and deliver Doctor Who to the audience. Many of them have become good friends and I’m incredibly proud of what we have achieved over the last four years.

Having Steven Moffat as show runner write such varied, funny, mind bending and brilliant scripts has been one of the greatest and most rewarding challenges of my career. It’s been a privilege and a treat to work with Steven, he’s a good friend and will continue to shape a brilliant world for the Doctor.

The fans of Doctor Who around the world are unlike any other; they dress up, shout louder, know more about the history of the show (and speculate more about the future of the show) in a way that I’ve never seen before, your dedication is truly remarkable. Thank you so very much for supporting my incarnation of the Time Lord, number Eleven, who I might add is not done yet, I’m back for the 50th anniversary and the Christmas special!

It’s been an honour to play this part, to follow the legacy of brilliant actors, and helm the TARDIS for a spell with ‘the ginger, the nose and the impossible one’. But when ya gotta go, ya gotta go and Trenzalore calls. Thank you guys. Matt.”



Steven Moffat, lead writer and executive producer, says :



“Every day, on every episode, in every set of rushes, Matt Smith surprised me: the way he’d turn a line, or spin on his heels, or make something funny, or out of nowhere make me cry, I just never knew what was coming next. The Doctor can be clown and hero, often at the same time, and Matt rose to both challenges magnificently. And even better than that, given the pressures of this extraordinary show, he is one of the nicest and hardest-working people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Whatever we threw at him -- sometimes literally -- his behaviour was always worthy of the Doctor.

But great actors always know when it’s time for the curtain call, so this Christmas prepare for your hearts to break, as we say goodbye to number Eleven. Thank you Matt -- bow ties were never cooler.

Of course, this isn’t the end of the story, because now the search begins. Somewhere out there right now -- all unknowing, just going about their business -- is someone who’s about to become the Doctor. A life is going to change, and Doctor Who will be born all over again! After 50 years, that’s still so exciting!”
