I was reading a newspaper the other day & rumours are that they are trying to get John Simm to play the part as The Master for the new series!

I could actually see Simm as a good Doctor rather than The Master, but he is a good actor so he might pull it off if the rumours are true!

If you get a chance (if it aint available there, torrent it), check him out in the BBC tv show "Life on Mars" in which he plays a modern day police officer who finds himself stuck in the 70s.


Also, there is talk of what I assume is another timelord, called The Professor!
By all accounts The Doctor thinks he is a nice guy, but discovers he is evil & a timelord when he sees him regenerate!
