New Dr Who

[Tyrone Biggums]

Apart from the fact that Dr who is a gender-free alien, Star Wars was a massive rated hit, and Ghostbusters was a fun reboot, your points are really valid.

That's rubbish. Dr Who had a mother and father. Thus indicating there were two different sexes on Gallifrey.

This whole gender swapping rubbish has only come into vogue in the last few years when obviously they were angling to bring in a female Dr and changing the canon.

I said Star Wars was a treat. They did a great job creating a new character to fit into the original world and it worked very well.

Ghostbusters was a pile of lazy shitty writing turned into a movie. It wasn't a reboot. Not sure how it's a reboot when they reference the original Ghostbusters in the opening credits. Just another cock up by that **** Paul Feig.

To be honest it's not the show for me anymore.

Moffat has made it far too complicated and I was hoping for better once he moved on. Back to basics and a safe pair of hands was needed. However, that was not to be and now I have no motivation to even watch - it simply no longer interests me.

Storyline wise - how do you know Chibnall's version won't be back to basics and he won't be a safe pair of hands? Much like you I've struggled a bit with the last few seasons but I hope Chibnall will give it a new lease of life, fresh exciting stories with less of the convoluted stories. The fact a woman has been chosen as the Doctor is neither here nor there. Give it a go - it could be fantastic and just what the show needs.

MOLD.

auto correct ficksed.

 

[CHAPPERS]

At least it isn't a black, eh lads?!

Sydney Newman - the original creator envisaged a woman taking the role at the some point and the idea was first mooted by Tom Baker back in the late 70s. Certainly not a modern thing and I don't think it's ever been stated that he had a mother and father in 50 years.

I just have no motivation to watch.

For me they they needed to bring it right back to its basic format after Moffat to draw me back in. A mad raggedy man scientist in a box.

The new doctor I'm sure will be fine for other people, just not me, I have no interest - I'm out. Which is fine really, plenty of other stuff to watch.

 

[McTavish]

MOLD.

Nope, mould is correct, mold is American.

Well I never.

Mother was mentioned in the Gallifrey Chronicles by the 8th Dr. 8th Dr also mentioned his father.

Fair enough. But it could just be a mad raggedy woman scientist in a box - seems a shame to give it a miss without knowing the scripts or direction but as you say, plenty of other things to watch.

You are showing your age by posting this, I am showing mine by liking it

Yes, I can remember watching The Five Doctors

 

[Bold Seagull]

Of all the story lines in Doctor Who over the years, and people have a problem with the Doctor regenerating as a women. Hilarious.

No shit. I'm shocked to be sitting here.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

It's a left wing-liberal conspiracy Tyrone! Wouldn't happen in Oz, the goddam sheila wouldn't even be allowed in a bar, let alone in a goddam Tardis!

I can't fake an interest or motivation to watch unfortunately. It's had a good run for me, except for Moffat's silly over complexities, and all shows eventually either go out at the top, or change and I lose interest. Happened many times before, and it'll no doubt happen again.

 

[pastafarian]

Had to do something to give Dr Who a lift, even if its taking away his plums.
Capaldi and the ugly trout assistant were awful.

Real women are always welcome. Screeching lefty harpies are not.

Are you Jake the Mus?

Where are my bloody eggs, woman!!

 

[JC Footy Genius]

Every woman's dream job. Greatest walk in wardrobe ever, big flashing blue light so you remember where you parked, guaranteed regeneration saves on all those creams.

Next Doctor .. Eddie Izzard or Nadiya Hussain?
