Sylvester McCoy, the Seventh Doctor, and David Tennant, the Tenth Doctor, are the only Scottish actors to have "officially" played the Doctor, though many companions and side-characters have been Scottish.
UPDATE: As of 2014, Peter Capaldi has taken on the role of the Twelfth Doctor becoming the third Scottish actor to "officially" play the Doctor.
Out of all the actors who have played Doctor Who only 3 of them have died. Those 3 are: William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee.
Which ones- do you mean just the actors who played The Doctor, or are you including his companions and other major stars from the series? You need to try and narrow down your question before it can be answered.

Why not. Although all the Doctor actors so far are all from the british empire, I have not come across any rule stating that the actor needs to be British.
