Shake it up, Mr. Lyon. Shake it up

I wasn't expecting him, but I am perfectly fine with Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor. He's not a chameleon, except insofar as he's shockingly young in Local Hero (1983) if you noticed him first in Torchwood (2009), but he's an actor I watch out for. The Angel Islington, John Frobisher, Danny Oldsen, Angus Flint, Malcolm Tucker, Randall Brown; I'll be very curious to see what he does with this role. Especially if it means I get to see him and John Hurt in scenes together.

I would rather see that more radical choice made under the tenure of showrunners who could do something worth having with it; I have zero faith in Moffat doing so, and I hope Capaldi's tenure outlasts his.
