I couldn't see either one doing it. Martin Freeman could potentially be a very long shot but Cumberbatch has said in the past that he wouldn't want to play the Doctor.

Ben Daniels, rumoured to be Twelve for about two months now, and claimed to be by playing him by at least two reputable spoiler hounds on two Doctor Who forums, is following the show's producer and casting director on twitter:

And they are following him back:

very nice

he was in House of Cards

[Shaun]

Freeman'd be impossible with Sherlock AND Hobbit commitments (also not that enigmatic an actor).

I think we should just make it Brian Blessed and be done with it.

[Roy Mars III]

Doctor Who is nothing without the Master either. They need to bring him make (but not Simm)

[Firewire]

i'd quite like steve john shepherd, he's leaving eastenders later this year anyway

and i can actually see him play a character like the doctor

[Marcus.]

oh

[Scarlett.]

I think a pretty unknown actor will end up being the Doctor, after all, before Doctor Who, Tennant and Smith werent known for much.

[Tom4784]

Smithy yes but Tennant was quite well known. He'd done a fair bit prior to Who.

I do agree that we'll probably see another unknown though.

Although, he has signed on for an eighth series so he won't be leaving any time soon.

No he hasn't. He leaves in the Christmas Special at the end of the year.

No, it isn't.

They filmed the 50th anniversary and then he went to do his film in America. He's back to do the Christmas special at the end of summer.

[Vanessa]

Emmett Scanlan would make an amazing Master.

[Scarlett.]

I don't think they've even done auditions for the role yet, the Christmas special doesn't film until later this year, and I assume Eleven dies at the end of the episode.

[Scarlett.]

I just realised, John Hurt's Doctor pushes up the regenerations by one, making Eleven the actual 12th regeneration, so the next Doctor will be the final regeneration in the original run of regenerations, so they're gonna have to deal with moving past the limit soon.

Also, the Valeyard is the 13th regeneration is he not? The Great Intelligence mentioned that the Valeyard would be one of the Doctor's future nicknames, confirming it was still to come.

[Scarlett.]

It could be that he is playing another role, and not actually the new Doctor though. Though, I wouldn't mind him as the Doctor.

[Roy Mars III]

Moffat is leaving soon as well, isn't he?

[Scarlett.]

It's not been announced, but I reckon he will, it seems the right time for him to leave the show. People have mentioned Gatiss possibly taking over from him, or possibly Toby Whitehouse.

[Roy Mars III]

Gatiss would be god awful in my opinion. He has not written one good Doctor Who episode (his stuff for other shows is good though) and he would be more of the same.

Personally, I was not a fan of either RTD (cheap emotional ploys and deus ex machina) or Moffat (built up but no pay off, bad characterization). Toby Whithouse would be okay, I guess but I am hoping for someone more unique

I think Gatiss would be okay, but he wouldn't take the show anywhere really different, Toby is probably the best to hope for. I just hope whoever the next show runner stops with the overly complicated twists.

[Scarlett.]

I think that the Master should always mirror the Doctor's current regeneration, like how John Simm's Master was like David Tennant's Doctor, I like the idea of how the Master is similar in a lot of ways to the Doctor.
