Ncuti may be leaving
It's from Joe, so take it with a pinch of salt, but will be a shame if it's true. It's been refreshing to have a happy, more emotional Doctor for a change. Although yes some of the writing has been... Yeah... Still a big improvement on Chibnall's era, but that's a pretty low bar.

It should be the showrunners who need to go. Ncuti is not the issue; it’s the infantile, lowest-common-denominator storytelling that is the issue. It needs it’s budget halved, stop making design decisions based on merchandise and a fiery young upstart team to play punk SF with the show. AND in the name of Rassilon, get rid of the sonic screwdriver, somic guitar, somic sumglasses and all that trite nonsense. AND if they need a new Doctor, hire Matt Berry.
How Space Babies made it all the way from conception to broadcast, especially as the first episode of the season that's supposed to get everyone on board, without anyone intervening will forever be a mystery to me.
Oh, I seriously dislike the smarminess of Matt Berry. Screw you, you're right, he'd be great.
He doesn’t have the range. He’d be entertaining for an episode or two but it would wear thin very quickly.
He just says TARDIS! and vwoorps on out.
Matt Berry - the cocksmith doctor
I agree with all of this, aside from the sonic sunglasses, Capaldi rocked them! Matt Berry would be amazing. Richard Ayoade would be my vote.
I always thought Richard Coyle from "Strange" would make a good Doctor. Bonus - One of those episodes even had Tom Baker in it!
