Howling:Christopher Eccleston Feeling toward show

Regarding Christopher ecclestons feelings towards doctor who and his attitude towards not wanting to return, what is your opinion of this? This is a general discussion for anyone to use, that's why I used the term you. --Coop3 ☎  15:09, August 24, 2013 (UTC)

I can understand why Christopher Eccleston does not want to return to Doctor Who. I think that the main reason is because it's been eight years since he last played the Ninth Doctor. He's since moved on and the show has changed so much since 2005. If the BBC was prepared to do a proper multi-doctor special, then they would ask all eight surviving Doctors to return, not just the three most recent ones.

It would have been best to go after all the living Doctors. Simply state that the regenerations age while they are within the Doctor.

Eccleston may feel slighted, people really don't appreciate his Doctor enough. 2005 seems like it should have had more production value for its time. So I have a feeling the series started off on the cheap end. The production value looks straight 90s but it was 2005. Eccleston had to carry the show but doesn't get any credit because.... Billie Piper's Rose Tyler

Rose Tyler has overshadowed 9th Doctor. Rose has been back a ton and has long been a fan favorite and is among the top companions. If the overwhelming sentiment was Piper was the better of the duo. I wouldn't want to come back either. Piper went on to be a Doctor Who Icon while Eccleston is a nice clif note.

It is important that he was asked back. It may lend some knowledge to Hurt Doctor. Its a shame really... I would have loved to see Eccleston's goofy smile one more time.--The Messenger John Tyler ☎  03:08, September 29, 2013 (UTC)

Eccleston is my 2nd favorite Doctor after Matt Smith. I think maybe 9th Doctor was a little niche and at the time most fans didn't want a full on renegade style Doctor. That's just my guess though, i didn't watch it back then and only was introduced to Eccleston when the series was on PBS for a very short run. Jedted ☎  05:49, December 26, 2013 (UTC)

It'd be great if one day Christpher Ecclestone's current opinion of the show just turned out to be an act and he made a return. But sadly I don't think that will happen. 87.102.91.126talk to me 14:18, January 1, 2014 (UTC)
