...I'm older than the Eleventh Doctor.

*silently weeps*

ETA:

Steve Moffat, who is succeeding Russell T Davies as lead writer on the show, said he had originally been looking for a mature replacement for Tennant.
'One thing I was very emphatic about was I thought there were too many people young on the list,' he revealed. 'I said "I think we're looking for someone in their 40s, or 30s". And of course we ended up casting a 26-year-old.'
He said that the moment he auditioned Smith he knew he had found the next Doctor.
'He was just spot on from the beginning... I couldn't believe it.'

And he was complimentary about Smith's potential: 'There is something quite old about him, so he looks old and young at the same time, which is terribly important.'


Sounds great. Eventually, I will get over being older than the Doctor. Eventually...
