Here’s the next victim, I mean candidate – Marc Warren:

Marc Warren

Yes, that’s right – Elton Pope from “Love and Monsters.” So I’m not sure how serious this particular rumor is, since they’d have to get past the whole “Isn’t that the same guy who’s married to the block of concrete who used to be the girl who played Moaning Myrtle?” bit. (See what I just did there? Harry Potter connection! He also was in “Ballet Shoes” with Emma Watson.) For anybody familiar with the wonderful books of Terry Pratchett, Warren got the role of the creepily normal-looking assassin Teatime – the guy who was trying to kill the Hogfather – in the 2006 TV movie.

Anyway, I like Marc Warren and think he did a great job in Love and Monsters, but I don’t see him as inherently Doctor-ish. Maybe I’m wrong about that. He strikes me as more of a companion. But hey, if they ever make a movie about Sting from the Police, I know the guy who should get to play him.
