Same haha. I caught some of the Christmas special whilst waiting for Wallace and Gromit and wasn’t overly impressed with it.

Doctor Who has been in a coma since Jodie. Ncuti switched off life support.

The Chibnall era in particular was woeful imo.

Tbf, I haven't watched this new Actor's version of Doctor Who so I can't comment on his version.

I did strongly dislike the writing in Jodie's era though.

Because he's crap...he can't act. Was cast purely for woke reasons. Dr Who is ruined. Either get a decent one and quit with the political correctness garbage or scrap it. It's become a joke.

So you agree the problem is because he’s black then. Thank you for summing up with your on brand racism.

It is not the Actor's Fault.


It's the Woke Storyline
that buggered it all up.


Disney pulling its Cash out,
changes everything.

How dare he!

I'm just joking btw, I honestly don't care about his race because it's Doctor Who at the end of the day.

The gender swapping was initially more odd in this programme imo.

I know it’s beyond your critical thinking because you have quite a smooth brain but if you call hiring a black actor in a role, political; you’re a racist. You also have history of being racist. Using the n word then refusing to apologise or being too thick to realise why using the word is wrong. You know this but like I said, smooth brain.

You’re either racist or just thick. Going by your history unfortunately it’s both.

The BBC CEO Tim Davie
wants Disney funding.

As they can not afford it, on their own.

In the 1960's it was nothing like today.
No Online or other costings
So Stupid to compare that.


[The BBC announced a $100 million deal with Disney
in 2022 to stream Doctor Who in the U.S. and Canada.

However, the show's performance in the U.S.
has been "underwhelming"]

A good portion of America is racist so there’s the answer for that.
