Tim Roth would not be right at all.

Can't for the life of me find the current Who thread. What do we think of the bizarre companion rumours?
― chap, Wednesday, 30 August 2017 11:03 (six years ago) link
Not gonna say more other than seems a bit off that the majority of female companions have been gorgeous 20 somethings, and the first male companion to a female Doctor is him.

Not v keen on anyone who has endorsed a Garry Bushell 'book'

It's kind of a jerk move to have the first companion be a more well-known actor than the Doctor

(If that is the case.)
I guess Billie Piper was slightly more well known than Eccleston back in 05?

I liked him in Law & Order UK

He's not terrible, but he's kind of a poor man's David Jason/Dennis Waterman hybrid

I don't think I've ever seen him act.

He's excellent in Law & Order UK. I might be alone in really liking his turn in Coronation Street as well. I'm basically totally pro-this as Bradley Walsh the actor is a very different beast from Bradley the game show host (though I think he's brilliant on The Chase as well but absolutely get how only knowing him from that and Wheel of Fortune and that would make you wary).
It's great how Americans don't get the baggage that goes with UK celebs, I think Corden* and Tate (and probably Barrowman) went down way better outside the UK where they all arrived with tons of baggage.
* I know you have him now, but when he was in Doctor Who he was very much ours

true. I had no reservations with Corden at the time and still rate his first episode very highly.
