My first reaction is that he's way too young. (Age 26) I hope I'm wrong.

Dadgaderie says, ooh, that is young considering the first Dr. Who was about 80...

He's VERY pretty, though. Can he act? I've never seen him before.

You have seen him before. He played Jim in Ruby in the Smoke and Shadow in the North - the televised Philip Pullman stories with Billie Piper as Sally Lockheart. I think you watched them at our place - the first one at least. I don't know that he's pretty. He's got a kind of weird shaped face with an enormous square jaw. Not being too pretty might be his saving grace.

Oh, of course! I thought he looked vaguely familiar but then thought I must be wrong. Yes, we saw Ruby in the Smoke, etc. at your house. I think this latest photo must be very flattering. He does have an odd face but I really like odd faces so...

I think the odd face might be A Good Thing.

I agree! A "too pretty" model face would be kinda weird on someone like the Dr. Unless it was done just right and that would be dang hard...
