Agree on Michelle Gomez. She's magic.
Do you have any actors you would consider front runners, if they do go non Caucasian? Idris Elba is the first who comes to mind, but he seems to be on everyone's list. I don't have enough of a grasp on current British TV to speculate, so I'm interested in your view.
I do. I even posted his name a few posts ago!
Idris Elba is too famous now.
I want to see a Pakistani Doctor
The only other non Caucasian actor of British background I could immediately think of was Ben Kingsley who is also too famous for it, at this point, and is likely thought of as Caucasian by many at any rate due to his Anglicize name.
50% of non Caucasian actors in the US are British. You just don't know because they do good American accents.
Contrary to the Americans who try to do an English accent and end up with some Cockney+Yorkshire+Swahili abortion. I can believe it
