Honestly Im usually one to complain about double standards but the people who are complaining about misandry because the first Doctor was sexist to women </3??? Get over ya damn selves

Pete. 25-12-2017 06:52 PM

That was very cute I’m not feeling the negativity

Marsh. 25-12-2017 07:08 PM

THANK ****ING CHRIST MOFFAT HAS GONE!!!! DON'T COME BLOODY BACK!!!

Peter Capaldi, he's been wonderful throughout despite being let down by some dud scripts.

Jodie is already a legend. :love:

Even the Tardis has rejected the idea of the doctor not being a man

What I don't understand about this why were they so insistent on the the first doctor being sexist? The doctor is meant to be an alien who can time travel why, WHY would he be so stuck in this 1960s mentality. Also I've watched the classic series and of the few William Hartnell serials that survived I don't think I at all remember him asking any of his companions to do the dusting lol.

Marsh. 25-12-2017 07:22 PM

Props to Chibnall though. The regeneration "reveal" was quite good in that it didn't tread old ground.

Eccleston/Tennant/Smith/Capaldi all had pretty similar ones with mentioning random body parts. This just got straight into it.

I wonder if episode 1 of series 11 concerns searching for the Tardis which gets lost?

NOT a TARDIS whereisit storyline to be revealed in the finale

Marsh. 25-12-2017 07:29 PM

The Tardis rejected Matt Smith too and hurtled to earth hoping to kill him but we were still stuck with it for 4 years.

Greg! 25-12-2017 07:29 PM

That episode was a complete mess but I enjoyed it. Love Jodie!!!

Firewire 25-12-2017 07:31 PM

The Matt Smith spoilers a few pages back were all LIES.

aaaahhh thank FUCK Moffat is gone though :love:

No more episodes with people standing around and discussing the mechanics of a plot the audience hasn't even been provided with. :love:

AProducer'sWetDream 25-12-2017 07:36 PM

The episode was a shambles right until the regeneration and Capaldi's speech :love: If only he'd gone out in The Doctor Falls instead. Can't wait for Jodie and the new writer(s). I struggle to dislike Moffat- he's a very mixed bag but there have been more high points than low points for me.

armand.kay 25-12-2017 07:47 PM

Why would Moffat choose this has his last episode lol. He is a capable sometimes brilliant writer why would he leave the doctor who audience with this lmaoo.

Also gonna miss Peter not sure if he was my fave doctor but with Tennant and Matt Smith I felt that it was their time to go and was excited to see how the replacement fairs but I feel like peter had more to offer. Looking forward to see what they do with Jodie though.

Yeah, I do think Capaldi started to hit his stride more in series 10 but I think a lot of that is to do with Bill.

For 2 series, he was basically lumbered with Matt Smith's leftovers.

The university professor angle really suited him.

Firewire 25-12-2017 07:55 PM

8 and 9 were all about Clara, the Doctor was the co-star.

He came into his own in 10. I think had Moffat made a series in 2015, with 2016's being series 11, I think we'd better understand Capaldi's Doctor a lot more. It would also been great to have Bill for two full series.

Ashley. 25-12-2017 08:51 PM

That was painful to watch.

I liked it, I thought the first half was a bit boring but it redeemed itself in the last half. The story was nothing more than an excuse to facilitate the crossover of the doctors and that crossover wasn't that great but it all came together in the end, I thought.

Yeah, I thought this was strange and it didn't make much sense especially given what we know of Gallifrey, you wouldn't think sexism would be a thing on a planet when anyone could end up switching genders.

great point lol I didn't even think of that... also I'm not normally bothered by things like this but the whole "haha he's sexist but its funny so you've got to love him" thing didn't really sit right with me

Marsh. 25-12-2017 11:44 PM

I thought it was silly to mix the episode footage with original clips as it just highlighted the recast and made everything seem fake.

They should've just got on with it.

Glenn. 25-12-2017 11:47 PM

Good episode I thought. Full of nice moments.

I was a bit wary of how I would actually feel when Jodie appeared but oh my god :love:

Cannot wait for the new series

Glenn. 25-12-2017 11:48 PM

I also loved how Steven Moffat put another spin on the Daleks. Those creepy crawling mutants are a story all on their own

The Doctor looked down at humans for "gender norms" and whatnot in the episode (or 2 episodes before) this one, so they must've either became VERY tolerant after the 1st Doctor or just needed someone to contrast the sexism and lead up to the female Doctor??

Scarlett. 26-12-2017 03:57 AM

I didn't mind Moffat overall, he had good and bad episodes, but I'm glad we're moving into a new era again.

Saph 26-12-2017 09:22 AM

how did bills story end?

I tend to find that most of the people I know saying the Doctor Who has been ruined and they will not watch it, because the Doctor should be a man, always, are women. Are women misogynistic?

One female I know even posted on facebook, this morning they will not be watching until Jodi leaves.

This has been a politically correct decision according to some which has wrecked the show.

Oliver_W 26-12-2017 10:18 AM

I feel like Moffat has never watched an episode of the First Doctor, because he was never like the sexist portrayal of this episode. At worst he called his female companions "my child" or similar, but he called his male ones "dear boy/my boy", and didn't even bother to learn Chesterton's name!

The real Bill is still presumably travelling the universe with her puddle girlfriend, the Bill we saw here was a copy rather than a continuation of the original Bill.

Oliver_W 26-12-2017 10:23 AM

I can't remember if I've already posted this, but I'll be really sad to see Capaldi go - Tennant's Farewell Parade of Death made me hate him so much I couldn't watch him again for ages, but before that I'd have been happy for him to stay; I really liked Matt Smith in the role but I kind of felt like his story was "finished"; but Capaldi has so much more potential, he's probably the best actor to fill the role, and I'd like to have seen him under a better showrunner than Moffat.

Saph 26-12-2017 10:29 AM

on a side note, did anyone watch the vicar of dibley xmas special the other night, I never realized Capaldi was the "will you marry me" guy :joker: I must've seen that 100 times

Well nobody can say the show is wrecked as we haven't actually seen it in action yet.

And, yes, women can be misogynistic.

Oh? Have you watched the new series then? If not then how can you say it's ruined?

It is the females I am quoting who say it is ruined, I am merely reporting what is being said.

Firewire 28-12-2017 04:48 PM

Do you work for a newspaper?

Ashley. 28-12-2017 04:51 PM

You haven't quoted anyone. All you've said is "females have said this too", which is a dire, overused way of trying to justify why you're allowed to say misogynistic things.
