Doctor Who, Homo Reptila, Warrior Class
"Homo Reptilia, warrior class ... A new type of Silurian, different tribe.
BBC - Doctor Who
I think these Silurians are from the 2010 two-part episodes: "The Hungry Earth" and "Cold Blood".
- - - - - - -
The first Silurians introduced are depicted as prehistoric and scientifically advanced sentient humanoids who predate the dawn of man; in their backstory, the Silurians went into self-induced hibernation to survive what they predicted to be a large geological upheaval caused by the Earth capturing the Moon.

Dr. Who, The Eleventh Doctor, Matt Smith
The Eleventh Doctor
- - - - - - -
The Eleventh Doctor is an incarnation of the Doctor of the BBC science fiction television programme Doctor Who. He is played by Matt Smith, in three series as well as seven specials, over an almost four-year-long period.
- - -
Executive producer Steven Moffat on Smith's casting.....
The Doctor is a very special part, and it takes a very special actor to play him. You need to be old and young at the same time, a boffin and an action hero, a cheeky schoolboy and the wise old man of the universe. As soon as Matt walked through the door, and blew us away with a bold and brand new take on the Time Lord, we knew we had our man.

Lucy (Lucille Ball) decides to go on a hunger strike until Ricky agrees to buy her a designer dress.
