What a great shame that the pseudointellectuals running the BBC have taken the potentially disastrous road of a female Doctor.
Female Doc, companion ,Master, head of Unit …not much for the lads to follow then.
I stopped watching Who when McCoy was promoted ,he wasn’t correct either ..it was a long time till the next Doc.
Lets hope Lightning doesn’t strike twice.
A poor choice as well .
Too young and without the acting chops.
So many older and finer actresses to pick , shame ,but then perhaps they where smart enough not to sip from the poison chalice.
As I’m now 56 I can remember being one of the little rug rats that hid behind the sofa trying not to watch the aircraft carrier sized black and white TV when the Doctor came on.
Now I record it and fast forward through the poor SI-FI , inappropriate storylines and self aware smugness .
We didn’t need a new Doc. but they do need new writers and leaders WHO remember that WHO was/should be a FUN , FAMILY FRIENDLY ROMP THROUGH TIME AND SPACE.
NOT a platform for the SELF-RIGHTEOUS.
O Well it frees up an hour odd a week next year to catch up with Arrow,Flash ,etc.
