James Callis "audition" for, er, 12th Doctor Who

This is a series of clips which show why James Callis would be perfect as the 12th Doctor when Matt Smith leaves.

I can't hear any of it

Watch past the first clip. The first clip is a bit quiet, sorry. That's the only source I had. But every other clip should be fine.

I hate to break it to you, but BSG only has half a season left. By the time S5 of Doctor Who starts filming, he will be quite free.

man... there are no words to describe how hot that scene is with the Angelic Six riding Gaius as he's being tortured

[Edbrad]

I'd actually watch the show if he was in it

[SaschaTheSlasher]

would he be the next doctor......i will quit the series !

I think Maya (the lead singer from a J(apnese)-Rock band, LM.c) should be the 12th Doctor--just watch him use psychic paper, a sonic screwdriver, and pilot a TARDIS--the Sontarans, Cybermen, and Daleks wouldn't stand a chance!

@Bajazoid O rly? I've seen every Doctor from 1 through 11... 11 is pretty damn close to 2 and 4 in his zaniness. I mean, hell, 2 played a recorder and dressed like a hobo clown. I liked Tennant but near the end he just got too sappy, and RTD's attempt to darken 10's character and make him the "Time Lord Victorious" was just silly.

Eccleston was dark and intence. Tennent was less intence and more energetic. Smith is a puppy dog. I think that they should go back to the intensity of the Eccleston days because I feel that Matt Smith's shoes are to big to fill.

Maybe before Smith's doctor regenerate, he can go through a real tragedy to cause him to be a dark doctor (crossing fingers for amy to die)

[Bajazoid]

I wish he would be the Doctor! Matt Smith does not appeal to most of the Tennant or even later Calssic Era fans. There needs to be more gravitas and a bit more age to the Doctor. As it is now, it's just wrong. At least Davison, the only Doctor who was anywhere near Smith's age, he did have the chops, gravitas and maturity. All of which Smith is lacking.

He defintely should be the 12th doctor.

@adjectivenoun7 Dude, did you not see some of the early doctors? The trend of making them younger and younger is a recent one and not nessasarly for the better. An older Doctor I feel lends the character greater gravitas and underlines it better when he acts young, being bouncy and energetic and having those "Oh Brilliant" moments that Tennant did
