The Eleventh Doctor is the name given to the eleventh incarnation of the Time Lord known as the Doctor. At present, very little is known about him, and his companion (if he has one) is, as of yet, unknown.
Behind the Scenes
- After months of speculation, David Tennant, the actor cast as the Tenth Doctor in 2005, announced in October 2008 that he would be leaving the role as of the final gap year special scheduled for broadcast in early 2010. This precipated several months of intense media speculation as to the identity of the actor to be chosen to play the Eleventh Doctor. English actor Matt Smith who, at 26, will become the youngest actor to date to play the Doctor (succeeding previous record-holder Peter Davison), was officially confirmed by the BBC as the new Doctor on 3 January 2009.
- As of January 2009 it has not yet been confirmed whether Smith will appear as the new Doctor in any of the upcoming specials, though it is generally assumed he will film a regeneration sequence. What has not been confirmed is whether the sequence will be included in the final Tennant special, or the first episode of Series 5.
