John Hurt can't be the next doctor because he is from the doctors past and the doctor must regenerate into the next doctor. Rumor has it that this will be at the end of this season. We will have to wait until november 23 for the season to resume. I too have watched the saga from the start, although I was pretty young for the first doctor who episode. Thankfully because of the age of the internet I have managed to obtain every episode still in existence. Some of the old episodes have quite good story lines even if the sets were a bit basic.
