Here is an rather interesting reimagining of Power of the Daleks

Peter Capaldi in his costume, looks very much like Pertwee with less of the frills and cape

Fan made but FUCK I want it to be real...

Although the similarity and possible homage to Pertwee's costume is obvious, I can't help but feel it makes him look like a cheesy magician. Hopefully him not posing awkwardly like that will make me feel better about it.

Actually think Dick Van Dyke would've been a pretty brilliant Doctor, same with Ford as the War Doctor. But Nick Cage? Not an ideal pick, but seeing as how Eccelston portrayed the 9th Doctor it could've worked

Ford would have been awesome in that role. Though I think the show would lose it's charm without the English silliness

[Vamp]

I actually think Price would have done quite well in the role, certainly better than a lot of those names. He was competent at being cheesy, amusing, serious, dramatic and scary, yet also, at times, entirely comforting.

As an aside I'm gutted we didn't get an eleventh and Wilf adventure.

Doctor Who already got an American version :/

After Breaking Bad, I think Cranston would have been a really good 'darker' Doctor.

But at the same time, I'd have been disappointed if Aaron Paul wasn't his sidekick

I had a friend do a similar thing a while back. I can't remember most of his doctors, except that one was Kelsey Grammer.

The horror channel is going to be showing some of the classic from Easter weekend onwards.

[TheWho87]

Tom Baker says he’s thrilled that the classic Doctor Who series is to be screened on the Horror Channel.

“Horror is my very favourite genre,” he said today, “so I am thrilled the classic Doctor Who series have been picked up by the Horror Channel. There was clearly a darker edge to my storylines, which I think brought a new dimension to the series. I remember hearing of the series scaring children – I wonder how the audience will react to the series today, all grown up. He added: “The Horror of Fang Rock is one of my favourite stories so I’m looking forward to that one!"

Horror Channel has completed a deal with BBC Worldwide to broadcast 30 stories from the Classic series which ran 1963 to 1989 featuring the first seven Doctors, starting with William Hartnell and concluding with Sylvester McCoy.

Launching on Friday 18th April (Good Friday) the season begins with the very first story An Unearthly Child, and then leads into a special WHO ON HORROR weekend - a classic marathon featuring one story from each of the Doctors across the Easter weekend. There will then be weekday double-bills in daytime and evening slots with stories shown in chronological order starting on Easter Monday 21st April.

Bless the "Horror" Channel. It has Xena: Warrior Princess on it, for goodness' sake.

[TheWho87]

The only downside is that they are saying only 30 stories but the rest is good news, hopefully they can expand the library and get the rights to more stories.
