Assume the sonic screwdriver will be replaced with a sonic rolling pin? WTF would a woman know what to do with a screwdriver!

Maybe a sonic VIBRATOR

Success will be down to the writers. If they write the part as a woman it'll be rubbish, if they just carry on writing the Doctor I'm sure it'll be fine.

I don't know, I do think the gender change seems maybe a bit unnecessary, don't know the actress at all though. We shall have to see how her performance is and judge her individually on that, but I'm not a big fan of the change to a female actor.

Is the last season couldn't get any better, along comes the next DR and she is from Huddersfiled!!!!
( well a small village in Kirklees which is basically Huddersfield)

So the new DR is from Huddersfield
The captain of the enterprise is from Huddersfield
Town are in the premier
The giants are crap!

...Joe Root and bairstow are both from Huddersfield.

Magnificent Yorkshire scenes.

( one of the statements above is actually wrong)

I bet all the PC feminists who have been pressing for a woman Dr Who don't even watch the show!

Time travel should be for men only, women know your limits, damn women wanting to be time lords, and other casually sexist comments.

It's so hard being a man. We are so under represented

I thought Missy was a Time Lord ?

Yes, unfortunately the comments in here show that some folk still belong in the stone age. If ever feminism needed proof of its existence it's here.

It'll take some getting used to as I've never seen a female in the role but if she is a good actor then I'm totally happy with it.

She's the one that looks like Frank Lampard

Entirely this. The first Capaldi series was a disaster because of the writing not him. The second has been much much better because the writing was much better.

I personally think it's ridiculous having a female doctor, it's just more pandering to the lefties and feminists again, but she won't be crap if the writing is good and doesn't lose the true doctor.

My issue is that thy have picked a bit of a looker. If this is going to maintain realists ever episode will see a man flirting with her because that would be true to life. But they won't because that will be very boring. There are a world of ways this could pan out and I suspect a lot of them are not very good.

If it had been Kathy Burke, I'd watch it.

What does that mean?

Which 'lefties' and 'feminists' are being 'pandered to'? Did they need 'pandering to'? If so, why?

Which? All of them.

Why? I really don't know.

It's going to be a funny regeneration. Dr Who has always had a soft spot for the ladies so will she have lesbian tendencies? Will he be devastated or pragmatic?

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Will she be a Time Lord, a Time Lady, a Time Person or Time to Go?

Everyone knows that fictional time travellers don't have vaginas! Damn leftie feminazis!

 

[Hungry Joe]

What does that mean?

It doesn't mean anything, it's just a trite comment used when people can't form a coherent argument about anything. As for Jodie, I'll give her a go, but agree with previous comments that success or failure will rest with the writing, not her gender.

 

[Me and my Monkey]

I wonder how surprised the Doctor will be to wake up and find he's a woman. Will be worth watching the first episode just for that. Does anyone know when it is?

 

[The Clamp]

Another perfectly good institution wrecked to appease the lefty lezzas. Oh well. Are we sure she identifies as a bird? Can someone fill a form out pronto!

Hope she gets her tits out.

 

[brightn'ove]

Oh wow

Don't care
