@Fonsini – characters played by British actors being portrayed as ‘the baddy’ on American T.V. or in movies would surely never happen. Ya think?

Right, now that I’ve calmed down from laughing after reading those frankly ridiculous points:

@Fonsini – I couldn’t agree with you less.

A prize to whoever knows where that quote comes from 😉  (no cheating and looking up the internet now!).

((;;/)/)

@Fonsini     Sorry? The Doctor “is not supposed to”? Says who? I’m not aware that anyone writes the rules for the Doctor other than those who are actually writing the show. And as others have stated, and has been discussed frequently here throughout this run, the Doctor’s anti military viewpoint is not only not new, it has been a specific th…[Read more]

@fonsini — it might have escaped your notice but @PhaseShift is one of the site mods, as am I for that matter. Not really the people you want to be upsetting. Might be an idea to take your demented ravings back to the Daily Mail where there’ll at least be a receptive audience for them.

@fonsini – ah, I’d forgotten about you,  kind of thought you’d gone off in a huff last time we collectively shut down your rather unpleasant and narrow minded nonsense.  Anyone who watches Doctor Who basically to count the number of black characters in order to work out whether this is ‘feasible’ or not really is in the wrong place.   Do ple…[Read more]

@Fonsini – If you have a problem with the politics of this show then find a different kind of forum
I agree with @DrBen and it doesn’t help your case to also ‘channel’ your personal political agenda
btw – maybe you are what is wrong with America today – a blatant lack of inclusiveness and of the
differences of peoples and opinions

@Fonsini What exactly are you on about?

First off, @PhaseShift is more than just “one character” – he’s an important dude around here with a lot to contribute.

Secondly, your conclusions are just plain wrong.  Neither the anti-American jabs or the anti-military jabs are new to this season or to the Moffat era.  The Doctor has expressed a…[Read more]

@macphisto96

I wouldn’t worry about @fonsini s point. A casual look at his posting history will reveal what he’s about.

I did mean to respond to @brewski s comment earlier in the thread though when he quoted the line about praying.

OMG! Is that how the world sees us?! :O I need to move!

I think in an episode that played a lot on the…[Read more]

@Fonsini As an American I can assure you that I took no offense.  I also happen to be an active church going American, yet still took no offense and saw it as a funny line and not a bigoted one.  I think the tongue was firmly implanted in the cheek by Moffat.  He and the BBC know that the show is growing in popularity in the US, so they aren’t go…[Read more]

@PhaseShift — nice survey and I think I agree with your rankings entirely. Also would add I think Moffatt was very clever with the casting and hopefully headed off the ‘we want the Rani’ back brigade. We’ve now got a Master who fills both roles quite nicely. And Michelle Gomez — definitely mad as a tree — in the nicest possible way.

@fonsini — shoosh.

@Fonsini You have no place here. Everything you post from now on will be added to the “Trash” pile as soon as we spot it. So there is really no point in posting any more.

This is a forum for discussions about Doctor Who episodes. Whatever is going on in your head, however tenuously related to Doctor Who, should be posted elsewhere. I could find…[Read more]

@Fonsini – I suspect I have considerably more experience with the reality of terrorism than you do.

You need to study more history; if you did you would know that – until 2005 – most terrorist attacks in the United Kingdom were carried out by white people.

As to what Mr Foley did or did not say before he was murdered: being forced to make…[Read more]

@fonsini – as you will no doubt have gauged by now, no-one on here is going to agree with you. It’s pointless for you to continue trying to turn us to your paranoid musings, just as it’s painful for us.

@Fonsini     I believe that it is “delusional” to ignore facts that are presented to you when they don’t support your own argument. And I believe that it is beyond inappropriate to reference that horrific and tragic murder in this context. Several of us did you the courtesy of engaging with you on a rational level. I for one won’t repeat the exp…[Read more]

@fonsini

You doubtless have many interesting and thoughtful things to post.

Please feel free to start.

@Fonsini – far be it from me to interrupt your trolling with mere facts, but Doctor Who’s Coal Hill School (as any fule kno) is in Shoreditch, and has been since 1963.

The ethnic makeup shown is that of Shoreditch in 2014. Someone did their research (unlike you) and knows, for example, that the Muslim and Sikh pupils would be a small minority,…[Read more]

@Fonsini

Actually, it’s not that I see it as laughable, but I do disagree. Here are my grounds for disagreeing. Not being British, I can’t speak in any real way to the leftist agenda of the BBC. But based strictly on the show itself, here’s what I see.

Clara spotted Danny, a new teacher, young, good looking, and decided to take a shot. Since…[Read more]

@fonsini – do people like you actually exist? Danny Pink is an attractive, likeable and intriguing character, and his and Clara’s dialogue seemed something straight out of Coupling. What does his race have to do with anything?

Seems you have an agenda, not the show…

@Fonsini

You will likely disagree with this assessment, quite possibly seeing it as laughable

Hey – you called it.

If we ever get bored with “theories even more insane than what’s actually happening” as a tagline, we’ll substitute it with:

“Doctor Who – promoting leftist ideals since 1963”

Or

“Theories not half as insane as what’s going o…[Read more]

@Fonsini  If this is a parody of BTL Daily Mail/Express UKIppery then cleverly done, though really, most of us would probably rather you hadn’t.

If not, I think you’re in entirely the wrong place.  We’ve all been brainwashed far too effectively, as you predict, to be won over by your arguments.  Otherwise, how could we fail to conclude that th…[Read more]
