The Thirteenth Doctor

[calliopes_pen]

The Thirteenth Doctor has been announced, and it is…Jodie Whittaker. I honestly didn’t think it would be a woman, but I don’t mind it. I have no idea who Jodie Whittaker is, but from what I’ve read so far, she can apparently act. Here’s the promo revealing the casting.

The first time I ever heard her name was this morning, in this Doctor Who TV post, where they were giving the odds of who it would be. Since she was one of several people from Broadchurch listed, I was guessing it was just because of either the Tennant or Chibnall connections, and not likely to happen.

Congratulations and good on her for getting cast in the role!

I think I've only seen her in Attack the Block. It's one of my favourite recent scifi movies, and she's pretty great in it. Amusingly enough I recomended it to someone just a few days ago by saying that it's a lot like Doctor Who :D

I was sure, up until the final episode, that there would be at least one more male Doctor first. :) I started to suspect otehrwise when the Master complained about the possibility about an all-female future. :)
