Forget about the Heros casting this season, I am officially DEAD OF SQUEE that one of the best actors of this generation has signed the contract.

Oh wow, cool!

And hmmm, he's played the Master at least once, in either Scream of the Shalka or one of the Big Finish audios (or both), so watch me speculate wildly and with no basis...

for Big Finish he was in an Unbound, playing "the Doctor" (except he wasn't really, but it was cool).

Oh, yes! Deadline's a good one. (And, pretty unbelievably, he was a last-minute replacement in that for Ian McKellen. Maybe we'll get him in TV-DW one day too...)

Now I'm fantasizing about a Jacobi/McKellen/Eccleston faceoff, which would have been the uttermost in awesome. I'd settle for a Jacobi/McKellen/Tennant faceoff, though...

IIRC, he's also played the Doctor in one of the Unbounds.
