A physically disabled Doctor would certainly force the Beeb to cut down on all the running shots.

Actually, a wheelchair bound Doctor with the persona of the darker, masterful chess player take on Seven would be awesome!

The Doctor did give some "regeneration energy" to Davros - so a disabled or small Doctor would work.

It would certainly open up some interesting story lines having a wheelchair bound Doctor. However I dread the idea of a sonic wheelchair. Doctor needs a gadget, presto, wheelchair to the rescue.

Wheelchair Doc - at last, the Daleks would be able to turn round all the old jokes about them and stairs.

A wheelchair-bound Doctor could be a load of fun.

And yes, I have just watched Theory of Everything, why do you ask?
Yes! Patrick Stewart, & he can get to sit down again!

Or would they actually cast an actor who is disabled...

He can do 'odd chap' well, at least. A big Doctor trait.

Yes, Clara was too good at fixing the timelines, so Capaldi has to go back and make sure everyone of those previous Doctirs gets his!  Wait til you see the scene where he pushes poor old Colin off the exercise bike!

Utterly fantastic that they have seemingly jettisoned the redesigned Cybermen. Never liked the design.

Is this Capaldi's regeneration episode, or is he doing the Christmas special?

Christmas special is his last one.

I don't watch half as much Doctor Who as I should, but having just looked up the origin story of the Cybermen, is it based on the Tin Man's story in the Wizard of Oz?

The Cybermen have always had their design updated, going back to the original design looks laughable by today's standards. Looks like cheap cosplay.
