Actress defends decision to keep male in role
Billie Piper thinks Doctor Who should be played by a man.
The actress, 26, who was Rose Tyler in the show, is thrilled Matt Smith is the new Time Lord.
'I don't think the Doctor should be a woman,' says Billie.
'Forgive me, I know it's not a feminist thing to say, but it's like saying, "Let's make James Bond a woman". It's a man's role.
'Matt's a lovely guy and he's a stirring actor. He has the right energy and that is what the Doctor's role is really about, essentially.'
Matt replaces David Tennant as The Doctor.
