#thoughts about 12

I just found out about the "13 limit" regeneration that was written in ages (40 years?)ago. Some say (fan comments) that as the last of the Time Lords, the Doctor doesn't really have to follow that "rule". Others argue that as River gave him all her regeneration to heal him; he can go beyond this limit indefinitely. Part of the reason why I like Dr Who so much is because it has so much material and has the potential to continue indefinitely. What do you think of the regeneration beyond 12?

I'm incredibly excited and really pleased about the casting!!! I have a feeling he's gonna be amazing and although I'm feeling really sad about matt leaving, it's going to be a fun journey :) and the fact that gillan and capaldi were both in pompeii boggles my mind and it's just hilarious for some reason idk I'M JUST REALLY EXCITED

My thoughts on 12? absolutely brilliant. see because he was in torchwood (children of earth) and i think he showcases his talent so wonderfully in that; given how he reacts when he makes the fatal choice of doing what he does after finding out the reason for the 456 coming to earth-the way his voice sounds, the fact that he made us feel how the character was expected to be portrayed , even the color his eyes go when he cries. im so excited for what's lead to come with the legacy of capaldi.

"Do you mean as in I shouldn’t watch Torchwood or just Season 3? I know that someone dies, I have read around, and got myself spoiled, oops." Well, the whole Torchwood was way too much for me, especially the s3e5. Not just that person's death but the almost genocide and the familicide.

i really like their choice. i've seen peter's acting before and i think he's fantastic and i have really really high hopes for series 8 and yeah :D

I'm fucking excited! I was really hoping he'd be older than Matt. The oldest Doctor I've ever seen was Eccleston and I'm ready for the change. If he was as old as Matt or younger, it just wouldn't have worked. If I don't find him attractive now, ask me after a few episodes and if he's good, I definitely will. My only wish is that he's funny. Sarcastic, sassy, indignant, whatever, as long as he's funny.

I can't judge his suitability to be the Doctor as I haven't seen him in the role, however I do know from various performances that he can act, which is reassuring, and based not only on the interview, but Matt's story about the day after The Eleventh Hour, he's clearly a nice person, which is a bonus.

I really hope so! Misha Collins had been trolling yesterday, and a tiny little amount of my hoped it would be him, I also had my hopes up for Anton Yelchin, but they're both American actors and, looking back, I was being a little crazy! x
