This is the type of thing that the BBC do really well. Blogtor Who on his site was discussing who should be cast (and came up with the inspired choice of Robert Carlyle as Hartnell). But I think it is going to be more about the creative dynamics that led to the shows creation. I think the key casting decisions are Verity Lambert and Sydney Newman. But like BG above, very, very excited for this - i think we could be in for a cracking treat
