Brilliant! So happy for Ncuti Gatwa and for the show.
I'm a Canadian, old enough to have watched the 60's Dr Who, but too young to have gotten more out of it than the Daleks were very scary. The show has remained a touchstone of my childhood though, and I've watched it on and off through the years. And yes, David Tennant is a particular favourite.
I absolutely love Ncuti as the new Doc and hope he gets to wear a kilt often. And twirl, often. He brings a joyful force of nature to the world and I can't wait to see the new series.
For interests sake, a Canadian, Sydney Newman originated the kernel idea of Dr Who and The Avengers (not the Marvel ones) and you might want to google articles on him. I can't post links here. Cheers!
I am so bloody excited about Fifteen! Ncuti is a force of nature, an amazing, amazing actor and I'm so proud of a Fife boy making such an impact! 🏴 Can't wait for the next six Saturdays.
Matt smith still hold the title as youngest doctor to start their first series
Ah yes, the JFK of Timelords
@@JeiElRai both were shot in America
I think Ncuti is delightful as The Doctor, and I've been a fan since the 70s.
After seeing the Christmas special, I think he is a great fit. He has energy and charisma.
Same!
I agree. I’m excited for the season.
I agree too he brilliant actor and brilliant New Doctor he amazing we love him 🏳️🌈
😂😂😂
@8.30 NCUTI MY FAV U ARE SO GOOD 😭❤❤❤❤ these new episodes are brilliant
Sorry to see comments from hateful losers, but I’m looking forward to the new season. Welcome aboard Ncuti!!!
found the bots
Indeed, it's like they think this is yelp or something,
If they don't like it, why go out of their way to complain...
I liked him am looking forward to new season f Doctor who 🙂🏳️🌈
Forward to,Doctor who new Season too
his resting facial expression reminds me of kenneth williams delivering innuendo
He told people to not watch the show, and his wish was granted lol
Excited about this new season (really enjoyed it so far)
Why?
@@MillerFobbs because you aren't
@@TerryWard-wn8wj You'll be sitting at at table for one, Tabitha WOKE. Ratings have gone.
@@MillerFobbs
you live in order to teach the rest of us how not to.
@MillerFobbs wait, what is your description of "woke".
Because most rightwingnut extremist are using that term for anything Black/LGBTQ Communities/ etc.
I have never applied that term to science fiction stories.
If you are so upset about the future, don't watch it,
Why did his answers feel so stock?
Bravo! WOW!
.....and the series tanks.
Keep Doctor Who. Idk who tf watched it then and idk who tf would watch it now 😂
Brilliant Actor love his doctor already well done 🙂🏳️🌈💪
Here we go.......
Yes indeed! It's so good and he's amazing in the role. HERE WE GO!!!
He's so smug.
interviewer sucks not being mean just honest
Whens the all white remake of Desmonds and Shaft coming?
when is your blockbuster screenplay coming out?
Looks like we found the edgy girl in the chat
When are you going to be original or funny
I laugh at people that will watch something, and then go out of their way to complain on stations/channels about the subject.
Like its YELP or something, and they are posting a review or talking to the manager.
That means you Andrew, laughing at you.
Is the fact that every other doctor is white integral to understanding the character? Does his whiteness actually matter when he’s a space alien? Nah. You just wanted to be the focus! Felt sad cause the space alien hero isn’t your same skin color, did ya? I don’t think you actually watch the show lol
He must have gotten this role purely based on his acting skill and talent. I’m sure it had nothing to do with DEI 😂 Disney is mentally ill
no thanks.
lmao “I hate him so I’m gonna comment on his interview to boost its reach.” 🤡
There's thousands of TV shows I don't watch. It really wouldn't be intelligent of me to comment on them.
@@TheFunkyJawa nope.
@@itsjoeycaleb still a no.
Checkbox hiring
cliché post
Checked your mom's box last night
Yes, if the checkboxs are intelligent, skilled and charismatic
One black doctor out of 15 and you pee your pants
@@lc360 it is all so transparent. pandering to people who demand change but then never follow up with the support
At this point, it's all about getting the cheapest nobody actor who can check the most diversity boxes...
Good luck, whovians!
Ncuti Gatwa is huge are you mad? Sex education was a hit, as well as the fact he was in Barbie. He's proved himself as a really versatile actor who can play dark and emotional as well as joyous. I think you're butt hurt by this casting for no reason. Give it a chance. It's a show about change and it's changing with the times
@@callumhornby5880Yes Yes Yes!
No need to be ignorant
Ncuti Gatwa is a very well known actor
Sounds to me like you didn't even watch the show. You're missing out. Ncuti is not only an amazing actor, but he seems to be bringing about an amazing return to form for Doctor Who.
CRAP GUEST! GREAT HOST!
