Re: Ms. Dr. Who???

I think the idea is not that the John Hurt version is a predecessor to Hartnell's Doctor, but rather that he did something so horrible that he lost the right to call himself the Doctor. We won't know for sure til the anniversary special.
As for Twelve... I'd be perfectly fine with a female Doctor, so long as they cast a good actress (which they presumably would). It'd be an interesting angle to take, and it's already been established that Time Lords can change sex during regenerations.
But I don't for a second expect it to actually happen. Nor do I expect the actor who gets the job to be a particularly big name.
(Oh, and I'd have to return my obsessive fanboy card if I failed to point out that it's spelled Gallifrey. And that the Doctor is probably well over a thousand at this point.)
