OK now that it is official, what do you guys think? Paterson Joseph to be the first black Doctor Who
The actor Paterson Joseph is to be the first black Doctor Who. Sources close to the BBC have reportedly confirmed that he has been asked to be the new Doctor and that he accepted a couple of days ago. You can currently see him in the science fiction TV series Survivors, as Greg Preston, one of the lucky - well, perhaps - 5 per cent to survive a global meta-plague. London-born, as well as Survivors, Paterson Joseph's fantasy and science fiction resume includes the Marquis de Carabas in Neverwhere, a bit part in the Doctor Who episode Bad Wolf, as Giroux alongside Charlize Theron in Paramount's Aeon Flux movie; as Space Marshall Clarke in the BBC SF sitcom Hyperdrive, and he played Benjamin in the BBC's fantasy horror series Jekyll. First Obama, now Doctor Who, what can we say at SFcrowsnest.com apart from wow! He's a great actor and he'll be a fab Doctor. http://www.sfcrowsnest.com/news/arc/2008/nz13329.php
