| He is. I can't believe I forgot to mention Claude Raines I don't watch Heroes normally but checked it out for Chris and I Claude. What an awesome character.Yep he was awesome in 28 Days Later Should check out Chris's role as the Doctor in DW, he really goes for it. It's a shame he only did one season though. Still, I have the boxset and just adore it ![]() __________________ | |||

| I never watched Doctor Who until I started with the new series of Doctor Who. I loved Chris in the role. It was hard for me to see David as the new doctor at first. | |||

| I never really thought much of it until I actually sat down to watch it properly. I was instantly taken in I've just watched 'Jude' again, starring Chris and also Kate Winslet. One of my favourite films ever, it's so heartbreaking and powerful. Chris does an amazing performance. I cried and it's really difficult to make me cry at a film! __________________ | |||

| I was a latecomer to DW too, I really loved the David Tennant era but then I watched Chris's Season and I just completely fell in love with the whole show. I really wish Chris had done more then one season but I respect his decision to leave Jude is beautiful, I've never read the novel by Thomas Hardy so can't compare the book to the film but I adored the film. Chris was outstanding. Kate was good too, though she was slightly flat at times. __________________ | |||

| ![]() Chris is going to be doing theatre work in London during the summer He's starring alongside Gillian Anderson in 'A Doll's House'. I'll try and find more info Unfortunately tickets are all sold out for the moment which is irritating but not really surprising.__________________ | |||
