Christopher Eccleston

British pop culture just wouldn’t be the same without Doctor Who. The show was revived in 2004, seeing Christopher Eccleston take on the iconic timelord role, receiving a great deal of critical acclaim.

After only a single season, Eccleston announced his decision to leave. He claims he had fears of being typecast after spending too long in his role on Doctor Who. It seems he made the right decision, since appearing in a variety of indie films and box office smashes. Well done, Chris!
