"Ben Whishaw has revealed that he will not be the next Doctor Who, and added that he believes it would be &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; to take the role. The 32-year-old actor played gadget master Q in the last James Bond movie Skyfall, which he said meant that he should not be in the running to play the twelfth Doctor.   Speaking to the Daily Mail, Whishaw said: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s not going to be me. But I don&amp;#039;t mind - I don&amp;#039;t think you can be Q and Doctor Who. It would be a bit wrong.&amp;quot; It has been rumoured that Matt Smith&amp;#039;s replacement for the iconic lead in the BBC One sci-fi series will be announced in August or September this year. Meanwhile, speculation as to who will be revealed as the twelfth doctor has been rife, with actors including David Harewood, Dominic Cooper and Domhnall Gleeson all speaking out about the role. Departing star Smith recently released a video message thanking the show&amp;#039;s fans for their support.
