We've talked at length about actors for the Doctor, or actresses for the companions we'd like, but who do you think could have done a good job at making the show?
I'm going to say.
John Carpenter. I've no idea if he is a Who fan, but I know he loves Quatermass, so its not such a stretch he could find something of value in Classic Who.
Carpenter really knows how to build up an atmosphere, and a lot of his best work already bares a resemblance to some classic who stories. Prince of Darkness follows the same plot as Pyramids of Mars, The Thing is similar to Seeds of Doom etc.
I can see his era being like a modern day Hinchcliff era. Plus I'd love to hear what he'd do with the theme.
Edgar Wright: Though a comedy director, he does know how to build up an atmosphere, and has experience not only with horror, but action too. I can see him capturing a real modern day Pertwee style, of suburban horror and monsters in every day surroundings.
Adrian Hodges: Primeval though sadly completely overlooked nowadays I think did a better job of bringing DW into the modern day. Its a shame he never got to produce the actual show.
