They had their genitalia waxed off before being allowed to appear in Byker Grove.

I believe Eccleston was originally offered the role of Sylar in Heroes.
Thank God he turned it down. Sylar was one of the best things about that show, especially in the first series.

I only watched the first, but the Sylar they had was perfect in it.

I liked a northern time lord and when he got to shout he was ace. I suspect he knew he wasn't a shouty, run around type of actor. The Dr needs to be eccentric and other worldly. Which neither he nor Tenant was, Matt Smith is and maybe why he's better than either.

Considering Marc P seems to be one of the BCG's only regularly posting Proper Writers, I have to say that I rarely understand what he's on about on a first read.

Or is it a joke I don't get? I can live with that.

How dare you criticise Marc P! He's the Queen Mother of the BCG!
