It is easier for those of us who remember the early seasons, because his face kinda looks like someone has morphed the first TV Doctor (William Hartnell) with the actor who played him in the movies in the 1960's (Peter Cushing) . Also, he is trying to play him like the first Doctor. That may be a mistake, because the first Doctor was a bit of a bastard, and a difficult character to make a modern audience love (for example - the scene where he ran off and left Clara trapped with the robots saying "no point in us both being caught", is very much in character with the first incarnation of the Doctor).

I've have seen some of the ones you are talking about and you may be right. I do not have the years of watching the Dr as you have so you have a far better grasp of the Dr's through the years. I will say I liked him better in the second episode which tells me in time I will adjust like I did with the last Dr. Now, as for the impossible girl, Clara is a timeless delight, looking good in current fashion as well as period outfits.
