After a few weeks and/or months of rumours that Matt Smith was going to be leaving the 50 year running show which he had been part of since he joined the show as the leading role of The Doctor in 2010, Matt confirmed a few days ago that he would not be returning for Season 8.
Matt will be in the 50th anniversary playing the Doctor, and then finally the Christmas special. He will regenerate at the end of the Christmas special into the 12th Doctor.
Naturally, there have been many rumours flung around about who will be replacing him, including many, many rumours that The Doctor will regenerate into a female.
Now, don't get me wrong, I am in no way sexist, but I would really hate it if the Doctor regenerated into a female. Not because I think any less of any female actors, I adored Billie Piper, Karren Gillan and currently, Jenna Louise Coleman, but after 50 years, it would just feel to weird to suddenly make the Doctor a female.
On another note, I'm really going to miss Matt, as I feel he was fantastic. However, I feel that for him as an actor, he has grown and it is certainly time for him to move onto some new things
