Sorry I couldn’t abbreviate the link, I would give your eye teeth to see this chap play the Gallafreian.  
If you don’t recognize the name search YT for ‘the thick of it’.  
Capaldi has had roles from the Machivelean Civil Servant in the Thick of it, actually you can read it all here: [Peter Capaldi - IMDb](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0134922/)  
If, big if, the article is correct then cousins ‘other side of the pond’ have no idea what you’re in for.  
If he plays to previous type, then we could have the best in decades.  
P.S.  
BBC to announce new Medic this Sunday, tomorrow,
