Colin Baker must be overjoyed that he’ll never be voted the worst Doctor anymore.
I was going to post that exact same thought! He’s now officially not the lowest rated Doctor 😊
(I always had a soft spot for 6, plus.. Peri) 😛
@@stevenedwards8353 agreed, I loved several of his stories… can’t deny there were a few clunkers (I’m looking at you Twin Dilemma) , but Revelation of the Daleks is pure class IMHO.
As a gay man I must say I truly hate this obsession with superficial cliché ‘representation’
I don’t feel represented; I feel insulted
Well said.👏👏👏👏👏
Ditto
The only thing that's insulting is this cultural War
@@crimsonmoonrise9785 thank you 😊
Sorry mate but if you're gay then you have to agree with everything they say. They are talking for you after all.
Anyone notice that it seems these days most woke characters personalities and character traits these days are just: their race and sexuality, nothing else at all. These 'characters' are basically just cardboard cut outs with no personality
ya and there isnt even realy a story just charcs doing stuf.
A bit like its producers
According to these people, race and sexuality is enough . They don't need any of those other characteristics and traits.
s810n 1$ mm, we know where the d3p rav itti ends. its a world k u l te, and its all top down through the min i0ns, all d3signed and being rammed threw now, timeline you know, something big coming, end/ r3 s3t?, a solar thing?, not in their control, soul steal time
@@ryuno2097 It probably makes it more easy for these cardboard people to become actors and producers like RTD and Gatwa are. What an easy job, producing shit.
As a gay white man I no longer think it’s for me either. I’m wondering what audience it is they want? For a show that’s lasted sixty years one would think they have got an audience and don’t need a new one??
Seriously. Like who asked for this???? Also as a gay black man; can we talk about how hot Mr H is???😂
I mean the show is incredibly progressive, Capaldi's era dealt with racism all over the board, it does so right back to Chris, even dealt with elements of gay issues with Jack Harkness, even had trans issues in some of these episodes, but all of this seems to be forgotton. I mean there was even a black gay actress, who was 12's companion for a short while, a much better actress then the person that played the new 'Rose.' lol. I don't know what RTD was thinking, or the BBC for that matter.
@@strikeforcealpha9343 The original show was dealing with racism from 1963. That's literally the whole point of the Daleks.
@@conradaster3764that’s what really matters! Me H is the dr who I’d cast!!
@@strikeforcealpha9343RTD is Only thinking of the bbc I think 🍆
You killed it bro. I'm a black man in Chicago IL USA and I started watching Tom Baker (the legend) and circled back to watch every single episode, bought the merchandise everything from across the pond for decades. I nope'ed out after Capaldi and the great Murray gold left. I have nothing and no feelings for this Doctor. I simply don't care (gaf) I never watched a single episode of Jodi Karen whatever her name is. Just let it die please. Give it its final dignity and let this world's treasure die and Rip.
Ill stick with Pertwee and Tom Baker. That was actual Dr Who
So were Hartnell and Troughton, by the way.
Remember: anything you buy of the previous stuff goes to support the current stuff.
Hell I'll go for Sylvester McCoy, sure he's not viewed as the greatest Doctor but he played the role when I was growing up.
@@Morec0 So the seven seas it is
@@EndellionQT Both he and Colin Baker were victims of bad scriptwriting. When you hear them in the BFP audios, they're both phenomenal. It's such a shame that the Beeb was intentionally trying to kill the show back then. And now here we are with a resurrected series that was axed and we're now on the second full reboot complete with throwing out everything that came before... and it's making even the worst Baker and McCoy eps look like blockbusters in comparison.
I'm a black man and I'm so tired of established characters being destroyed. Why can't Hollywood create and develop black characters or gay characters. This is intrusive to every enjoyed memory that I have. Be creative not destructive.
As Spock once said - In history it has always been easier to destroy than to create.
why don't they create gay characters.
because they know it won't sell. So they hijack existing IPs with a fanbase and kill it from within.
In alot of cases i can agree such as james bond. But with the doctor he is an alien who can change his face with plenty of precedent that Time Lords can change gender and race , and even precedent they dont really have a construct of sexual preferences. So why is it a problem when the doctor is gay , black or female?
Using my example of James bond (another franchise I love) I dont think he should be anything but a straight white male , because that is how that character was concieved. If a new movie were to come out and james bond is now black or a female it just wouldnt make sense within the story. But with doctor who it can and does make sense within the story that the doctor can regenerate into a black person or a female.
@@lostvayne9146with all due respect that total bull crap gay characters can sell and can work for crying out loud you see a lot of indie projects features gay characters and they turned out well so you're not making any sense with that statement
@@messystudios8505let’s be honest here. The sex change regeneration was a new addition from NuWho. Your argument employs circular reasoning. ‘The Doctor can be any colour or sexuality so it makes sense to do it. But to do it they have had to retroactively rewrite the rules around regeneration in an already pre-established fictional universe.’
That fallacy has annoyed me for years. They think they can do anything they want and that the viewers will be on board with anything because they have issued themselves permission.
I haven’t seen such stupidity since King Henry VIII issued himself a divorce when the Church said no.
I'm a gay man. It's an awful mess. Too many dangerous ideologies peddled out to youngsters.
what's dangerous about it tho...I get doctor who is a cringe show but what are you saying....
@@cedricdallaire3324I think by forcing divisive ideologies requiring those who were never asked for consent to play along under increasing threats will ALWAYS be divisive to society even under most well intentioned circumstances
But beneath the language they are trying to normalize and encourage and entire movement that ultimately is indoctrinating kids to then make of themselves lifelong profit streams for pharmaceutical companies, plastic surgeons etc while also being an easily manipulated political trigger
I could go on forever. Encouraging delusional codependent narcissism basically. Definitely on purpose and I feel
Pity for those lured into this and the complications inevitably faced
= evil
@@cedricdallaire3324 it's pretty clear...
@@niklbauglir it's really not
@@cedricdallaire3324he is saying that nearly all entertainment now through the mainstream, are propaganda. It is very dangerous.
The person who wrote this article Asyia Iftikhar isn't even British (Jesus what a name)...
Her credits include "You can be queer and Palestinian at the same time”, and "Meet the queer activist who bravely protests on the streets of Russia in drag".
What a joke.
So ethnically non - white and (probably) queer.
Absolutely no bias in her support of Gatwa, then.
@@steventhomas2856 white isn't an ethnicity dude. Its an arbitrary term for the idiotic race ideology
For those who claim Doctor Who was never made for straight white men, I really have only one more thing to say to you: Leela!
Peri 😍
Nyssa
Ace and Sarah Jane.
"He's not British." Thank you!!!
Imagine going to whatever country she's from and telling them "memri tv wasn't made for you muslims"
For a show created in 1960's England. I'm pretty sure it was made for them. Heck 😅 the straight white men and women were the kids who followed/supported it since the 60's
Actually it was made for English kids as a clever way to teach them history mixing it up with cool time travel and Aliens.
... And now it is plainly just re-writing and race-swapping history -_-;
And RTD did also say. "This is not a kids show!"
Dude just because something is intended for kids doesn't have to mean its stupid or doesn't have a wider audience. Classic Doctor Who understood that, the Disney renaissance understood that. There was a time writers understood this, you can have things that appeal to everyone and doesn't need to be edgy and "Adult."
Heck this edgy attitude just makes it feel so much more imature to me.
Verity Lambert who produced it in the early days was white AND Jewish so that another exclusion? Or Hussain (whose complete name evades me!) was Iranian I think. So that be another exclusion
@@graemewilson7975 Sir there was a time where. "British Broadcast service." did indeed mean they were producing things FOR the British.
And yeah that was the time when they started to see their first immigrants of none-European descent, ever so slowly. but the country was still 95+ percent white at that time, so they would be appealing to the local white people.
Also global broadcasting and internet and so on wasn't really thing, so Doctor Who at that time was contained just to the British Isles not the whole world like today.
Exactly...hence the unwritten requirement that the companions be attractive young women.
@@graemewilson7975 Warris Hussain who directed "The Unearthly Child" and "Marco Polo".
They'll keep poking the bear and then cry like victims when it doesn't work out for them.
I can never look at RTDs DW again. I can’t look at Tennant the same way again either ever. What a shame. They are both delusional
Yes Tennant is such a great disappointment...
Tennant has managed to retroactively ruin his entire contribution AFAIC. So not only was his 15th Doctor gay/bi, his 10th Doctor was as well? F_ck off, Donna Noble.
Nobody will want to touch the sonic screwdriver after this Dr who
Well his is shaped like a butt-plug so its easy to skip it in a line up.
Avoid the Whittaker one too, it may have...residue.
Gross lol
It won't be used as a "toy" that's for sure 😂
Well, no one except for Sonic the Hedgehog! 🤣
Just like no one wants to touch a Lightsaber, after the woke patrol had their go at Star Wars.
There will be unforseen consequences.
Edit: If he's the "first black and gay Doctor," what does that mean about all the women the Doctor has fallen in love with in past incarnations? What about River Song, his wife? Regeneration doesn't tamper with his memory, why would it change his sexual/gender preference?
The relationship thing and memories was always a little foggy with the Dr. From the many years of the show, most of them until the 2000s didn't ever really talk about any kind of actual relationship he might have had (other than maybe his grand daughter very early on). But we can also see that while he (they as a species) do keep memories/knowledge, he also has huge changes to personality, tastes in things, interests, etc. every time. So its quite likely that they would see the next reincarnations (if they get them, again something that seems rare for them to have so many like the Dr. does) as a "new" persons and direct relationships would be somewhat lost. Also remember the connection to Rose with the first new Dr. in the early 2000s, and there have been other slight mentions of past relationships after the 2000s. And the idea of "all the women" already seems like he doesn't hold onto those unless we want to say he "dies" and thats that for each of those relationships, because the whole time travel thing that would make it quite possible to keep going back.
That being said, while I did enjoy the River Song story, and even liked the Rose part making the Dr. somewhat relatable in that way... I would prefer the Dr. NOT deal with such things himself, instead have the background characters doing that so that the Dr. is just the driving connection in the stores for everyone.
Pretty sure there was a female black doctor in one episode of course nobody remembers that just so this idiot new Dr feels important.
Dude I cringe allll the way through these like who asked for this?? I’m gay and black and I live in terror that people think I wanted this to happen 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The activists have all the power and the media and our politicians empower them, along with celebrities and corporations.
All designed to shame, divide and conquer us all - but fooling no one.
Go and touch grass right now! 😆
How can people not realise that the focus should be 100% on creating the best possible story. As soon as attention starts being diverted to “how can we get the Doctor wearing spandex in this episode” and “not gay enough, let’s have more sassy walking” the quality is logically always going to take a nose dive
I love "news" articles written by twenty something recent arrivals which tell us all what British cultural icons were always really about and who they were always really made for.
Sad thing is I bet her parents or Grandparents are pretty based, I find it's always the children or grandchildren of immigrants who are bitter and have a terrible attitude.
Don't forget that these twentysomethings have all only been watching since David Tennant's Doctor (because he was, like, sooo hawt!). Every single one. They didn’t even begin watching with Eccleston in 2005...and yet they have the nerve to judge the entire 60-year-old series based solely on the episodes from its 21st-century reboot alone.
Forced inclusion requires the censorship and exclusion of any who would question or object to those being newly included, by force.
No f**k* given , I say this as a straight white privileged male …
Or as RTD thinks ..an antichrist
13th doctor white female lesbian
14th doctor black gay
15th doctor black/Asian trans in a wheelchair
16th doctor = a real doll
Wheelchair one is accurate, look at newer lego city sets. Everything's gone woke
At this point, some people will be very lucky, if there even is a 15th Doctor...
Well at least it picked up at the end.
Gatwa IS the 15th Doctor. 14th was Tennant (again).
The Internet never forgets
Glad to see I wasn't the only person who Metro pissed off with that article, I'm actually hoping this series tanks in ratings because this show doesn't deserve them anymore.
Who cares at the end of the day this is all stupid there's no point getting angry about just ignore it and move on
Let’s just shut metroUK down and stop this bullshit
Impossible. It’s an advert/PR paper. Pretty much ALL articles in the metro are paid to be there.
But then what would the homeless use as toilet paper?
I had a hard time getting into Doctor Who to begin with. Now that it's exclusively for sparklefairies, I don't need to bother.
Just watch the old stuff that is actually good if you can.
Lol sparklefairies! I'm using that
The really sad thing is, before they started all of this ridiculous identity politics stuff back in 2017, Doctor Who had one of the biggest gay fandoms in the world, and had for decades. Everyone got along and there was never a hint of homophobia.
Now all of that has been destroyed.
Well of course its the fans fault, for not liking a completely changed show and character.
You’re meant to lap whatever crap they’re trying shovel.
Remember in the 1970s, when a gay character's entire characterisation consisted of dressing flamboyantly, "mincing" around and using endless double entendres?
Russell T Davies remembers.
Wish to thank them for saving my time. Watched every episode from Hartnell to Capaldi.
So, I don't care for onions, so I am an Onionphobe?
Vegist
You will now be branded for life lol.
And I wear the color black does that mean that I'm racist?
Bigot
Blancophobe
David Tennant turned into an absolute wacky doodle as well
Basically modern day leftists
He was always a lefty, but he never grew out of it as most people do. If you don't grow at least marginally more conservative as you age, you're likely to end up as a fruitcake trans kids proponent or JSO activist type, gluing yourself to railings and throwing baked beans on stuff.
It's because his kid thinks it's trans so now he's all defensive. He failed his kids
When the 10th Dr was scolded on pronoun usage to an alien, I tapped out.
@@tonyclements1147 Yep and he read the script and was OK with it .
Last thing I’ll say is it’s amazing that these people don’t realize they’re belittling themselves by watering down who they are into their color and sexual orientation. It’s not helping them…It’s reducing themselves…Deeeerrrpppp.
The level of Delusion from Nutci and Russell.
I'm gay Even i and lot of LBGTQ common sense people are not showing up for this either.
Imagined making a show and saying: "Were gonna own the bigots by making a shitty show"
Great Job DISNEY (Keep Burning More money). The real Doctor Who Fan are ok saving their money.
Both have made self Indulgent rainbow sh*t, it's not like they are held back. They are very petty bitter people who want everything to be rainbow to "own" straight white men, who they blame for everything that's ever gone wrong in their lives
Again, why would lbgtq want to see the most toxic, entitled version of “themselves? Hating everyone.. like.. it’s not reality. And it’s so radical. LGBTQ people r just people.. the ones that demand things are acting/ terorist who have made life for lgbtq worse.
Gatwa loves to highlight how groundbreaking his casting is, but then turns around and says it's inconsequential when criticism is levied at the show.
I guess this Doctor is gonna be a masterclass in double-think.
He sounds like a groundbreaking c***
You know who was actually ground-breaking? Michelle Gomez AKA Missy. I don't remember her ever making a big song and dance about it. She just played the role and played it well. The woman had crazy charisma.
@@tomnorton4277 Crazy, right? It's almost like she let her work speak for itself.
@@tomnorton4277 YES!!! That’s what genius casting and great writing will do.
the true doctor is gone. capaldi said it himself. “Doctor, I let you go”
And Moffat wrote it. He even had the TARDIS's cloister bells ringing in Capaldi's final episode. Moffat knew it was the end of the line. He probably clocked on as soon as Chibnall admitted he couldn't be arsed to write a Christmas episode.
that's the cut-off line for DW for me as well!
everything from 1963 to "Doctor, I let you go" is actual DW.
Heck, even the original RTD era is so old as heck now - it almost feels like part of classic who, like Mccoy era part II or something haha.
Doctor Who is the gift that keeps on giving.
Yep, Doctor Who is definitely Herpes now.
The "inclusive" people at work, people. You know they'd desperately deny (or justify) their hypocrisy too.
To show how this woman lives in an alternative reality one of her recent articles was entitled "You can be queer and Palestinian at the same time".
Brilliant. Except in actual Palestine.
I'd like to see her give a streamed practical demonstration of that straight outta Gaza.
Is being full of shit now a protected characteristic?
from what I see all round me, It does seem to be protected.
We all wanted Richard Ayoade to be the Doctor... but we're all racists 🤦♂
Actually he would have been great. Did he ever bang on about being black in the IT Crowd? And that's the point really. It should be about the programme and NOT identity politics.
@@pinball8701 If I'm honest, It never even occurred to me that he was back. He's just Moss
@@DarioDarrow I totally agree. He's a funny actor and you just enjoy the character. IMO that is true inclusion, when no-one cares about race etc. No-one is happy when it's shoved down your throat by activists, and their focus on the culture war also inevitably ruins everything else.
He would have been awesome.
OMG he would have been awesome!!!
Doctor Monkeypox
Doctor DEI
Doctor Blackrock and Doctor Vanguard
Doctor Ho
Doctor groom
Doctor despite being 13%
hilarious how now all of the energy, watch hours and engagement i wouldve spent watching dr who can now go to straight white male youtubers mocking dr who.
And, Doctor who is dead.
Been dead for years now. They're just molesting the corpse at this point. 😐
At his point it is Weekend at Bernie's 3.
For me, it died when Peter Capaldi finished his run at the doctor. I watched the next season, but it just wasn't Doctor Who to me. It was the men are bad show.
Who?
It died in 1989.
The problem with the Jodie Whittaker era was Chibnall’s writing. The problem with this era is that it’s a public information film on how to kill a show that’s lasted for 60 years.
RIP Doctor Who.🙏🏻
It's not? Funny. It's starred straight white men for sixty years. It's fanbase has been mostly straight white men for sixty years. It's been mostly loved (or used to be) by mostly straight white men for sixty years.
What you've made it into is something else, and you can have it.
Im 100%ACE was a lesbian and companion of dr who that was the eighties by the way.
Gatwa a typical chip on hos shpulder luvvie with deeply unpleasant steak of racism (if a Caucasian said what gatwa said theyd be arrested)
They wouldn't let Steven King write an episode because he's American. I guess he should have told everyone that he was black, gay Rwandan.
Joe King, not Stephen King.
And how many episodes of Trek, BSG, D+ Marvel/Star Wars, Arrowverse, Walking Dead or Buffyverse were written by British writers? I think Neil Gaiman wrote one or two Babylon 5 episodes waaaaaaay back in the '90s.
It's a British TV series that for 60 years has been funded by the British public. Of COURSE they're going to prioritise UK writers.
And if a Yank writer did write an episode now, it would probably be the most virtue - signalling, shitwoke - choked episode of Doctor Who EVER. Because the US is where this ideological sewage originates from.
@@steventhomas2856 No, Steven King offered to write an episode, but they told him no because he wasn't British.
Started watching DW when Jon Pertwee was the doctor, and followed it through to the end with McCoy/McGann movie, then picked it up again with the "NewWho" era up to Capaldi, then DW ended for me. They don't make it for me, so I don't watch it anymore. From the early days of hiding behind the sofa as a kid, to cashing out of the "progressive" trash being served up now, its sad to see them destroy a British TV institution
A Timeless Child made the doctor no longer a time lord. he's adopted and somehow has two hearts despite that he isn't even from galirey.
Biting the hand that feeds you comes to mind.
What is with the hostility of these people? Everyone used to watch doctor who when no one cared about all this moronic nonsense and instead we were united by the fact we enjoyed this show brimming with creativity and endless possibilities. Doctor who used to be limitless potential and creativity, adventures beyond time and space but now it’s turned into a pissing match for social justice social credit. This author is not a genuine fan, she’s jumping on a bandwagon and using Doctor who’s corpse as a soapbox for her own bigoted worldview.
it will keep getting worse
It's been almost a decade..A DECADE of this playbook being used over and over again and what has happened since then? division, pop culture slowly crumbling to the point of apathy and the main audience just walks away.
As a black woman, I've just not liked or cared for this show since Capaldi's era (still think he deserved so much better) and now it just makes me feel sad that this is where it has gone. Feels like the whole focus is inclusivity, which isn't bad, and not good storytelling.
I'll stick with the old stuff.
Capaldi got done so dirty, dude was a mega fan since childhood and they gave him those scripts?!
And even then he was the only saving grace, because crap scripts aside, he still played the hell out of that role
And bbc paying his rent boy fee for Russel T behalf.
Was literally told on Threads that no one is saying that Doctor Who was never made for straight white men, when obviously Asyia Iftikhar of Metro UK said so right in a Metro UK headline.
Sick of the gaslighting from the DEI Doctor Who defenders.
They changed the headline after getting the backlash. But everyone saw it.
2005 Doctor Who was good in spite of the forced diversity not because of it.
They don't have to tell me to touch grass instead of this...
The irony is, one of the reasons the BBC's mouthpiece Radio Times was offering for the low overnight viewing figures was "good weather".
They told us to go touch grass, and as soon as the sun came out, that's exactly what the potential UK viewing audience did 🌞🌱😎.
Them citing 13 & Yaz an example is utter nonsense as she was technically still a 2000+ year old straight man randomly dealt a female body & it was all last minute pandering with no set up.
Not 2000+ year old... 2 BILLION + year old because of the jail episodes.
And honestly it could have been fine, if they hadn't just been pandering. They could have easily started into the notion more of "time lords change biological sex" like they did with the Master, and that played out fine. But they had to dive directly into sexuality, wasn't just a woman but a gay woman, and not just a "gay black man" but a flamboyant gay guy, oh and also don't forget the drag queen character (but you know DISNEY the company for kids, had to add fetish things into the mix with that one).
While I did like some of the River song stuff and even Rose, it was probably a horrible idea to give the Dr. ANY romantic relationships, leave that to the background characters and keep the Dr. as a character for everyone that just connects everything else.
@@JohnA... Technically, the Doctor only aged & experienced a week or so in the Confession Dial, before resetting, He just knows how long he was in there. Even if he remembered each previous cycle, a billon copies of the same memories would merge into one.
I didn't like the 13-Yaz relationship, because it was shoehorned in at the last minute thanks to the loud Twitterati crowd constantly badgering Chibnall, so yes it was pandering and didn't feel earned. I also think saddling the first female Doctor with it was unnecessary. Though if I'm fair at least it made some sort of logical sense, the Doctor had spent so much time as a male with an eye for the ladies, it follows that this would continue despite the physical change.
Like JohnA.. I'd prefer to keep away from the Doctor's love interests, I'm not particularly interested in the romantic machinations nor the orientation of the lead. Cant we go back to being best buds zooming through time and space just having a whale of a time with a dash of danger and side of intrigue?
Well!!? That pretty much alienates, like, 99% of the traditional fan base! Alas poor Dr Who, I knew you well...
I think what they meant was *this* Doctor Who wasn’t meant for straight white men, because the Doctor Who everyone else grew up on was meant for EVERYONE.
No they meant its not for one particular demographic. That's it. Notice nobody ever says "this wasnt made for women" or any other demographic because there would be murder. These clowns at the BBC getaway with shit like this because they don't need to justify themselves
It highlights these insane people have such disdain and hatred for straight people that they will do anything to attempt to put them down and destroy them. Nothing but narcissistic behaviour trying to force people what to say and think, there is a name for these people and originates from germany
In an interesting twist of events, it's not for anyone who enjoys fiction either.
Pretty amazing how modern tv and movies think having token people (not full CHARACTERS, just token CHARACTERISTICS) is somehow inclusive and progressive, while simultaneously purposely pushing other demographics away.
Inclusive bigotry.
Glad I don’t support that garbage show anymore lol. Funny how the people who claim to be “open minded and inclusive” are the ones who are the most vocal about hating. Good lord lmao
I am diggin' the haircut! These people are so predictable. They do not have any where near the amount of support they think they do.
Pertwee was against the show coming back if it wasn't done right if only if he was alive to see what they have done with it, I don't even know what Lambert or Newman would have said about what they are doing.
His son would be better than Sh*tty Gap Year.
I actually enjoy people/companies having no filter, i know who to avoid and where not to spend my money, easy
Even if he was born in the UK he still won't be British.
He wasn't though, he is Rwandan.
@@lesigh1749 yeah thats what mano said.....any useless responses? doctor obvious
He was born in Rwanda, and clearly hates white people.
@@lesigh1749It's the "Och, nae, he's puir dead Scottish" appropriation that makes me piss, though, up to and including putting him in a kilt. Pretty sure that Lil' Shitti has NO entitlement to wear a kilt no matter how many years he spent in Scotland. I'm entitled to wear TWO family Tartans, and I sound more English than the unholy love child of David Mitchell and Lee Mack.
@@steventhomas2856 If you listen closely to his accent you could be fooled though. "Search EvrahTINK" is as Scottish as whiskey!
Bye bye Metro you won’t be missed
He wants to beat the bad guys with "big musical numbers, and twerking". Also the female doctor had no whimsical cleverness about her. She lacked depth as the doctor and I feel like the whole season was just a tease at her hooking up with her companion in a "will they, won't they" situation. The insert of a relationship which the Doctor has never participated in with humans before because the doctor knows how infinitely small our lives are compared to his, and he can't bear the thought of getting so attached only to watch them die while he regenerates. It also pulled away from the main story in a lot of cases and the writing suffered as a result which is why the female doctor lacked depth as a character, and they were relying on this doctor being a lesbian to be a compelling reason to finish the show which it wasn't because they're making everyone gay or lesbian in TV now and it's not special anymore. It's overplayed way more than the "good guy gets the girl" trope.
Doctor Who has lost what made it unique. The sense of an adventure with friends and someone wise to guide you along on this crazy awesome journey in their life as the last Time Lord, and the privileges, and burdens that come with name "Doctor Who."
I didn’t realise they changed the title of the article until I saw a guy called the watcher post in heelvsbaby face Twitter chat lol
Uh huh, and there were also always female custodes, right? The "it was always ours" argument's been misused again, folks.
Neither is it for Families!
So that a lot of people that aren't going to watch it. Great idea...
RIP Dr Who. I don't support racism.
They make a product unappealing to its audience.
The Bud Lite of programming
What did I literally JUST say on your previous video!
Oh haha i was covering this today on my Culture Zealot channel. Its a liberty!
Ncuti Gatwa looks like a little child pulling sultry faces at the camera. I can't take him seriously.
I love how the minorities now determine that a 50 year character is really meant for.
So where was all the minority & gay peddling all those decades ago?
100% Agree man - This BS has gone on far too long...
It doesn't help its now owned by Idiot Disney now.
Funded only, not much better, as we're still getting a steaming pile of $h!t. Disney is just helping the BBC double down on woke.
Disney doesn't own it. They are only the international distributor. That's it.
He's a "Bundle of Sticks" nothing more.
How can Doctor who be gay? He's an alien. How many alien sexes are there, remind me? Probably millions or billions.
Not just culture - it's about race and ethnicity, our culture is a product of our people. Don't be afraid to talk about race and ethnicity, it is done out of love for our own and not hatred for others.
Haha, 😂. Well done you absolute plonkers.
Whenever I feel angry about my own circumstances, I look at the UK and am overwhelmed with sympathy.
I disagree that just because he is an immigrant or received any funding, he shouldn't have criticism of the UK. We support free speech in this country.
It was a kid's show coopted by people who do a show that says "Hey children, look at my sexy body!"
White but gay and disabled wheelchair user here and, honestly, I’m pretty much done with it as I don’t feel the need to be pandered to, to “see myself on screen” or to be hit over the head with agenda, ideology and “message”. What plot lines existed in “Space Babies” and “The Devil’s Chord” were juvenile and incompetent at best - with more plot holes than Swiss cheese. The acting, too, was verging on “Am Dram” - especially from Gatwa. Weirdly the drag queen, Jinx Monsoon, came across better, acting-wise (possibly by playing it as a pantomime villain a la Alan Rickman) than the supposed star of the show. The real nadir though was when the show lurched into a song and dance routine with a sideline of breaking the fourth wall. It was jarring and nonsensical. I know the next episode has been written by Moffat but, honestly, I think these first two episodes have, finally, dealt the show a death blow - with only 2.6m viewers for the first episode and 2.4m for the second: piss poor viewer numbers. I bet Disney are happy!
Sorry Dr. Who there's no regeneration from this, at the end It's not the Daleks not even The Master who killed him it's Russel T Davies. RIP.
Been a fan over 40 yrs & Saturday was the first time ever i switched Doctor Who off 10 minutes into episode 2.
They have completely ruined a show i have loved for years with this woke shit.
I'll keep to Big Finish audio dramas for my Doctor Who fix.
Well they have a point not many straight white men watching the gay sci-fi show going from the ratings. And it's fine having a gay sci-fi show different strokes for different folks and all that. But from a business perspective it makes no sense it was making and money at one point a flag ship Saturday night slot with millions of views , now it's not getting watched by anyone, it's almost like the demographic it's now aimed at isn't interested in sci-fi , I mean if you wanna make money from a gay audience would probably be an idea to stick to the types of things they are interested in not the types of things that straight white men are interested in. It's like Budweiser targeting gays with a straight man's drink instead of going for something the target customer would actually drink like cocktail of something
Any Woke is too Woke.
Dr. Woke dead on arrival
Since Capaldi
It's almost like telling fans of the show to go touch grass and to not watch the show now was a seriously bad idea
The author of the article obviously never saw Pertwee in a purple velvet opera cloak. Quirky, to be sure, but fun as well.
Ironic as its creator Sydney Newman was a straight white man.
Don't forget Verity Lambert though, without her it wouldn't have survived
If he was well written.. he could be black pink gay whatever and the show would be good.
The problem is, they keep focusing on the fact he’s black and gay like they’re just bashing u over the head and hating you
The birdcage is such a good example of how to do gay characters you root for.
If RTD wanted to make a show about a gay black space traveller; then he should have done that. There have been numerous such shows over the years. To come back to DW and screw it over completely has he has done is just awful. I'm in Australia and I will not touch "Disney +" which is the only legal way to view it now. I could watch it by other means but I just do not have any desire to do so. After 60 years of watching it. The heart and soul of the show is gone.
