There was a rumour about this a few days ago but I dismissed it because he has just appeared in the main show. Jessica Raine who is playing Verity Lambert is in two episodes of 7b, too. Probably not playing Verity Lambert though Tongue

And Brian Cox is a fantastic name to have attached. He's huge!

I think that's great casting.  I can definitely imagine David Bradley looking pretty much like Hartnell with only a bit of work.  And in the anniversary episode?  Pleeeeeeeze.

Very exciting news. I just hope that the lack of casting for Carole Ann Ford, Jackie Hill and William Russell isn't because they won't be featured.

Here is an updated cast list.

Doctor Who actors

    David Bradley as William Hartnell, who portrayed the First Doctor
    Jamie Glover as William Russell, who portrayed Ian Chesterton
    Jemma Powell as Jacqueline Hill, who portrayed Barbara Wright
    Claudia Grant as Carole Ann Ford, who portrayed Susan Foreman
    Reece Shearsmith as Patrick Troughton, who portrayed the Second Doctor
    Sophie Holt as Jackie Lane, who portrayed Dodo Chaplet
    Nicholas Briggs as Peter Hawkins, original voice of the Daleks and Cybermen

Behind-the-scenes personnel

    Brian Cox as Sydney Newman, co-creator
    Jessica Raine as Verity Lambert, original producer
    Sacha Dhawan as Waris Hussein, original director
    Sarah Winter as Delia Derbyshire, creator of composer Ron Grainer's theme tune
    Jeff Rawle as Mervyn Pinfield, former associate producer
    Andrew Woodall as Rex Tucker, director
    Ian Hallard as Richard Martin, director
    David Annen as Peter Brachacki, original production designer
    Sam Hoare as Douglas Camfield, director
    Mark Eden as Donald Baverstock, controller of BBC One

Others

    Lesley Manville as Heather Hartnell, wife of William Hartnell

    William Russell as Harry
    Carole Ann Ford as Joyce
    Reece Pockney as Alan
    Charlie Kemp as Arthur
    Roger May as Len

According to wiki: In order to make the drama understandable to a general audience not knowledgeable about the history of Doctor Who, not all of those involved in its creation are represented in the script. For example, the programme's original story editor David Whitaker does not appear, and his role is merged with that of associate producer Mervyn Pinfield.

I'm still puzzled about the inclusion of Jackie Lane/Dodo. I don't have a problem with it, I just don't understand why it would fit in.

Isn't that a bit of a sore point in the show though, what with the way she was let go? Maybe they are finally going to address it and put some facts to the rumours?

Also I love that Carole Ann Ford and William Russell are going to be in this. Huge shame that Jacqueline Hill isn't still around too.

That's true, but it still doesn't fit in with a drama about the start of the show, since Dodo didn't turn up till 1966.

Gatiss said in an interview a little while back that while they are looking into the origins of the show, he is writing it more as Hartnell's story, which is why they are going as far as having Patrick Troughton in it and Hartnell's reaction to being replaced. I still don't know why that would tie in to having Jackie Lane/Dodo there instead of any of the other ones, but it at least explains why it goes that far in.

Apparently, William Russell will be playing William Hartnell's driver.
