Being an avid doctor fan since Jon Pertwee, and having even watched the William Hartnell incarnation (b/w) I feel I have just got 'fed up' with this whole series.
People mention the writing, but the old series used to be spread across maybe 4-6 episodes so you'd have something to look forward to each Saturday, but now since the reboot it's all crammed into a single episode, so if you miss one, so what!
On top of that, especially since the writing of 'Chibnal' we seem to have 50+ minutes of TV, but about 25 minutes of that is focused on 'make me aware", which has lead to pathetic story lines,and historically inaccurate as well as introducing some aspects of sexuality, diverse or not, which is totally unnecessary and really ends up being a 'filler' for an episode that is only 25 minutes long.
Thank God the BBC license fee will be coming to an end!
For some reason the media seem to think that a lot of Dr Who fans were opposed to Jodie Whitaker because she was a woman - They weren't, there have been many Time Lords, that were women, such as Romana, who was a great character, but the Doctor is the Doctor, and why are people constantly trying to fix what isn't broken.
I heard some fantastic names being mentioned, such as Martin Sheen, Hugh Grant etc.,which made me look forward to re-kindling my love for this series - but sadly no - lets be diverse!! - for god sake, it's set in space and time - how many aliens do you need to be diverse?? - Do Daleks have this issue? - "oh look, he's painted Red, Shouldn't he be Silver?.. No.
Why are they not making changes elsewhere, such as Russell Brandt to play Richard Prior, of Colin Firth playing Malcolm X, or even Liam Neeson as Nelson Mandella
Enjoy this coming series -It will be the last as the sale of merchandising will be zero.
