As we've all been made abundantly aware of, Stephen Moffat, head of writing for the Doctor Who series, will be leaving the program next year. With that, we see change in the space time continuum, in the form of Chris Chibnall (Broadchurch) taking the helm of the T.A.R.D.I.S.  (He's done great work with Broadchurch and I am confident that with the right cast of players, he will nail his first season.)
I think I speak for everyone, and in no way besmirching any previous "Doctor" choices, by saying that Hugh Laurie is not only deserving, but would be a top five favorite of "Doctor" characters, behind only Baker, Tennant, Eccleston, and Capaldi in the fan canon. Disagree with me about the lineup, if you wish or need to, but you must agree that Laurie would prove to be a most spectacular "Doctor," as well as landing in the all-time Top Five "Doctors" of all time!
Please sign this petition for the consideration of BBC America and BBC (proper) Executives, Producers, Underwriters, and Beneficiaries, as well as anyone tied to the "Doctor Who" series in any way, be it by filming, production, craft services, engineering, following, or fandom, in lieu of Hugh Laurie as being offered the role of the next "Doctor Who!"

Thank you for your time and cooperation.  Let's make this happen!
