eleven!

I am going to miss David Tennant. I swear I am. But. Still! Nobody forgets their first doctor, right? But that doesn't mean the shift to the second one won't be all that bad!

Matt Smith, 26, youngest actor thus far.

(From [livejournal.com profile] dramedy's post)





Kind of has a Gaspard Ulliel thing going, no?

My first thought upon seeing this face: Jack is going to love this.

I was just saying to friends yesterday how now that I've gotten used to the fact that DT is leaving I was getting excited about seeing who eleven would be. And now that I know I'm excited to see him in action.

And I had no idea there was a BBC production of Sally Lockhart, I love those books to bits. That is exciting too!

*dies* omg he WILL, won't he?

I will really really really miss David. I don't think anyone else will be the Doctor for me quite as well as he is, but all the same, Eccleston is ALSO the Doctor and so was everyone else before him, so you know, Matt is going to be his own doctor and I'm just looking forward to where Moffatt is going to take the series, because Moffatt is awesome and that is that. :|

Hell yes to the Moffatt! I am so excited about him being in charge, that's definitely the best bit and the main reason I'm not totally heartbroken about David leaving.

the sally lockhart programmes are really good! not as good as the books 'cause... y'know, they're books, but you should definitely try and watch them if you're a fan. :) /random comment!jacking

In the first picture I saw of him, I thought he was 17-18 years old, tops. Thanks for informing me otherwise. :)

Yeah, he does look incredibly young. If I didn't see the age, I might have pegged him for younger too.

i am torn between pretty excited and also kind of :\... i guess we shall have to wait and see. i am looking forward to moffat being in charge, though.

did you see the christmas day episode? what did you think?

Like most people on my flist, I've decided to be optimistic, because yes! Moffatt! (Everyone seems to go back to that, lol.)

I did, I did! It was pretty much obvious at the beginning that he wasn't really who he thought he was, and I kind of loved the lady in the red dress, but mostly I spent the episode woeful that David would be going away. :\

Also, hi! You have not been on eljay much. Whyfore?

I don't watch Doctor Who, but Matt Smith is sexy, and I'm not sure why everyone's so angry about the selection.

Nobody just wants David Tennant to go; he's been an absolutely brilliant Doctor but we can't hate him for deciding to leave, so obviously, the blame must fall on Matt Smith somehow. :|

In other news, I have written fic you may be interested in! But it is for [livejournal.com profile] hpvalensmut, so I can't really post it anywhere yet. :|

I totally understand that - I've just seen a lot of people be like "Matt Smith is so ugly and awful!" when actually I find him quite yummy. :P

...IS IT ABOUT TERRY? IT IS, ISN'T IT? :D!

I honestly want to see how he'll do the Doctor role.

MAYBE.
