I do not think he would have been a good doctor. Too serious of an actor. Also, I do not think doctors should be A-lists. There is a little bit of fun in a semi-lesser known actor as the doctor.
I agree with Olaf, but for different reasons. I don't care much that he is an A-lister. However, I think that the show needed to take a different direction and Cumberbatch wouldn't have done well in the direction we are heading.
