I think it takes a certain kind of talent to be a good voice actor. You can't just deliver lines; you have to imbue them with emotion and nuance, and you cannot rely on your face to communicate that. It's just the opposite from TV/film, where you often have to over-act with your face because the limitations of the screen borders means you cannot move freely.
Paul McGann is a fantastic voice actor. So is Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy. I think the weakest voice actor Doctor is Peter Davison (despite being my second favorite Doctor). He plays his Doctor well, but his deliver is plain and he doesn't have much range.
I think the previews played directly to the Rose fans, though I'm actually not sure where all the "I'm Rose Tyler!" lines came from. There was one moment in the third story where she said, "I'm Rose Tyler, and we Tylers never give up!" or something like that, but it was said in a quiet tone to the two people hiding with her, not in the strident, defiant tone of the preview.
I have a copy of the DWM, but to be honest, I didn't read anything beyond DT's article. I find DWM to be fan-pandering crap, for the most part. For example, calling Rose "universally loved".
"In the Forest of the Night" and "Sleep No More" were Twelfth Doctor TV episodes with Clara. I don't think there are any non-Twelfth Doctor episodes, classic or modern, that angered me. Disappointed, yes; angered, no. It's really only Moffat's stuff that has enraged me with the stupid that he's tried to make me swallow.
