Women saying they'd like to play James Bond. Why? It's a male like the Doctor.

It's all pathetic nonsense and one argument is that there aren't enough female role models.
If people open their eyes and look, they'll find plenty of female role models.

And so a third female steps forward in addition to the two I reference. It is privacy and related issues I can not discuss in an open forum that prevent me from identifying the two females I was quoting. (One of whom I did not expect to have such a view)

I am pointing out, it was not just certain male fans objecting to this, but female fans as well, who were most vociferous and vowed never to watch Doctor Who ever again.

With such a negative reaction has the new guy at the top made an error of judgement for the sake of what is seen as being political correctness and alienated a sizeable part of the fan base.

I have said I will look in on it, if I were part of the ranks I quote, I would not be even doing that.
