Good point! I don't think it's that, tho... one contributing factor must be that I'm not familiar with Mr. Eccleston at all, so I have no mental picture of what it means for him to be cast. Radio 5 asked if his "gritty" reputation was appropriate for Who, so I burbled something about the Doctor needing toughness to deal with his enemies, but I really had no clue what I was talking about (not a requirement for light-hearted interviews). Anywho, must race out and rent Shallow Grave and 28 Days After etc. I wonder if this will mean another McGann-like crush of cosmic proportions? Hope not, I think I'm too old now to survive it.
