Oh look!!! Another Doctor Who post! While it has been confirmed that Matt Smith will be our Doctor until 2014, Steven Moffat is already thinking about Who and what will be coming next. It is always hard to tell when Steven is being serious and when he's just messing with us BUT there are still ideas floating around in his head!
According to an article from last week in MailOnline*, Steven Moffat is considering making the next iteration of The Doctor be a lady. It is part of the Who mythology that The Doctor while not human, appears human and that Timelords have the ability to regenerate as either gender. However, The Doctor in all of his journeys with us has never donned the skirt himself.
Moffat says that viewers are much more accepting of The Doctor being a lady now more than they ever have before. Several actresses have already showed interest in the part including "Sherlock's" Lara Pulver, and all-around badass Helen Mirren.
So what do you think? Who should play the next Doctor?
