    I think it would be great. She’s still hot and still a great actress.

    sounds like a pretty sweet match-up!
    But, I have to wonder: what ever happened to “last of the Time Lords”? I mean, The Master coming back was sweet, if not a little bit forced (come on, The Master using the chameleon arch, because he was afraid? No way) It just makes me wonder how they’re going to bring The Rani back (parallel world has my vote)

    Looks to be cool. I too will be curious of how they could do this.

    My guess is that since Russell Davies is on the way out and the whole ‘last of the Time Lords’ thing was his idea that they may tell us something about the Time War and revive Gallifrey. Not only because of this story about the Rani but the rumor about The Meddling Monk making a return. And how cool would it be to see a super-hot regenerated Romana?

    Hmm, but who would they get to play the new, super-hot Romana? I’m rather fond of the idea of Lily Allen appearing on Dr. Who…

    I could go for Lily Allen as Romana. Or Jennifer Ellison.
