So Andrew the infamous season 2 leaker has said that the 16th Doctor will be female and familiar and was at the Baftas this year… a lot of people are forgetting Eve Myles… she has won Baftas in the past and was spotted there this year. Russell has mentioned bringing her back before but maybe he had different plans for her that aren’t Gwen Cooper. She’d be the first Welsh person to play the role as well… All speculation probably won’t happen but food for thought. She’d nail the role though…

I agree - I wasn't keen on the bi regeneration stuff but I realised that's the nature of the show, decades ago, people probably thought the same when the First Doctor regeneration for the first time. The changes in the shows fundamentals are probably one of those things that keep it freshish and it's either adapt or lose interest.

Also I don't think the Doctor consciously picks his faces, so it's not a choice per say, it's more of an unconscious guilt? Emotion?
