New Doctor Who a 'woman'.

[JudgeTedd]

What a thread

A pure distillation of Britain over the last few years or so.

Tennant back in Dr Woke.

What's occurring ?

I thought they had already announced a new guy taking over?
Ncuti Gatwa.

[Zambo]

I saw something which said that had been delayed until 2023 (no reason I saw).

Not sure if Tennant is back till then

Tennant back in Dr Woke.

What's occurring ?

In it for three episodes, then replaced by a gay black doctor.

Seriously, not even joking.

[Sid Pervcat]

Saw a brief glimpse of it last night..

Saw John Bishop.
Immediately had urge to murder people.


The cunt

It’s Doctor WHo, not Doctor BLo

Just a coincidence. Obviously the best actor for the job. Have every faith that the BBC's impartiality and selection methods.

Do you honestly care though?

In no way am I accusing you of being racist or homophobic, in fact I firmly believe you’re neither of those things. Also, I’m pretty confident that someone at the BBC decided “it is time” (as they tend to put it) for a black or bent Dr Who. But I just don’t understand how people work up the energy to be bothered about it.

It doesn't bother me, in fact I find it amusing, hence the tongue in cheek post. It obviously does bother some though, to the point of being triggered with consequential anger, even fury. What's the point, nothing is going to change it.

Oh, God.

[The Ghost of Alex Higgins]

I'm so furious I can't even type my true feelings

I'm so furious I can't even type my true feelings

I can’t say what I want to say cos nobody is allowed to say what everyone really thinks.

We agree on that at least.

These things tend to be cyclical anyway. The next generation will likely cringe at their forebears’ embarrassing attempts at being “inclusive” and hopefully just get one with treating everybody equally without the need for virtue signalling studenty drivel.

Exactly. I hope they do.

I don't watch Doctor Who so can't comment on whether it's any good or not.

I notice in a lot of programming the issue isn't about diversity/lack thereof. It's more about the quality of production. If that's no good then the shows in question can never be enjoyable.

It's the lack of imagination by producers/writers that hurts viewing figures. Poor casting offers no help either.
