Female, 40 years old, beloved by the Audience? Ingrid Oliver for 13!


So who would Doctor Who fans accept as the Doctor? Perhaps someone whom they love and who is already sort of the Doctor. Ingrid Oliver. At 40 she's not a kid and not old. Just right. Fans love her. She's a big Doctor Who fan, and she's available!

Are you trying to convince us to watch her on TV or to go on a date with her?

She's an amazing actress.

She is incredibly versatile. You'd never think it was the same woman in any of these three roles.

However that said no she would not be a good choice for the Doctor for the following reasons.

1/ She is already in the show as Osgood and it would probably look like too much fan pandering to have the Doctors decide to look like his number 1 fan.

2/ A female Doctor is a terrible idea anyway. It jars with the previous Doctors, the Doctor is clearly not a genderless or a female character and so Ingrid would look out of place.

3/ A female Doctor is likely to be a huge flop. Most of the audience are against it, and given their track record of virtue signalling through their female or minority characters, the New Who team would probably write her in the most smug, obnoxious, way possible. Think series 8 Clara times 10000. Personally I wouldn't want a great actress like Oliver wasted and her career coming to an end by being associated with such a jump the shark moment.

4/ She should play She Hulk as she would be a good Jennifer Walters.

Look at this picture of Jennifer here. https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwj7z431xu3RAhVGXhoKHWR6C3oQjBwIBA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fen%2F9%2F9b%2FShe-Hulk_vol_2_7_textless.jpg&psig=AFQjCNGKz8VRYOLgV5nqqihDCAyD2kvrYA&ust=1485992311573783 Is that Osgood or is that Osgood?

Plus she could glam up an be She Hulk https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiBrK6Kx-3RAhXF2hoKHfWDAe0QjBwIBA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fvignette4.wikia.nocookie.net%2Ftardis%2Fimages%2F0%2F0c%2FIngrid_Oliver.jpg%2Frevision%2Flatest%3Fcb%3D20141109022542&bvm=bv.145822982,d.ZGg&psig=AFQjCNHwxm6rLWIvTzyzn513SAucdVrwkA&ust=1485992358897851

Cast her as She Hulk in the MCU and get a guy for the Doctor!
