Yeah I think Barrowman is probably not going to return. Which is fine with me.

Whatever the Doctor, I'm really hoping the stories get more imaginative. Then again my faves from Jodie's run are the Haunted Villa one and the one in Norway with the parallel sentient frog-on-a-rocking-chair universe, so I'm perfectly happy with weird, and especially if the weird is used in ways to enrich character arcs.
