sharplittleteethThe BBC have announced the next Doctor Who actor.
It's Matt Smith. He's currently on the ABC on Tuesday nights in Party Animals. He's the quiet, thoughtful one in that, so it's not a great predictor of how he'll play the extroverted Doctor. This Doctor Who Confidential interview is probably a better guide:
He certainly seems to have the eccentric energy required.
And now the real question: what will his costume be?
If it was up to me, I'd play up Smith's pretty indie-pop style: a tweed jacket with leather patches on the sleeves, a knitted vest, open collar shirt and corduroy trousers. The classic 1950's Chemistry teacher look. Maybe even a scarf. He's certainly got enough neck for one.
