the only acting i've seen him do was in penny dreadful, it'll be interesting if he gets the part.

What the fuck, he was on Penny Dreadful? Holy shit, I love that show but never even noticed he was on it!

I had no idea he did any acting at all, lmao. But then again I make it a point to never research/follow musicians in case they do some stupid shit and ruin the experience of their music for me. The only exceptions are huge people like Beyoncé, Kanye or idk, Taylor Swift, that I just can't avoid knowing stuff about them.

I’d definitely be here for this, but Lydia West would be such a good choice too.

She was awesome in It's a sin and Years and Years, so much subtle character growth and strength.

She'd be awesome as Doctor Who right now. Not against Olly but would just wish they'd give him a few years to grow as an actor first as only seen him in It's a Sin and Penny Dreadful and one he is replaceable and the second - well he was the flash and style but Lydia was the real foundation.
