The Doctor Who Thread

[JoshuaKaitlyn]

Stopped watching this series. I admit I wasn't one of those that welcomed a female Doctor, but I thought I would give it a chance. But after three episodes I've decided its just too PC.

• Female Doctor (OK-ish)
• Multicultural Companions (Nowt wrong with that but it felt like 'yeah lets go with that')
• Bradley Walsh (for the older generation) (Nowt wrong with that but it felt like 'Lets keep the old fans happy')
• Interacial marriage (Nowt wrong with that but It felt like 'Lets add that to the mix)
• Possible gay feelings from one of the companions (Again nowt wrong with that but It felt like 'Lets add that to the mix also).

The Macra Terror is up for pre-order on Amazon, no release date as yet. Everyone and their mum says it's an animation, despite a lack of official confirmation.

It's that same hopeful listing as we got for The Wheel in Space.

I don't think Amazon US have any idea what is or isn't coming out in Doctor Who classic terms.

Considering Many people in the UK pay the BBC a handsome sum of monies every year, you'd expect the BBC to listen to it's fee payers. But the BBC has a clear diversity agenda going on, and whether you pay the TV license or not, your gonna get a massive dose of feminism and diversity chucked in your face. I had the unpleasant task of having to watch tonight's episode with family and friends.

A night that will live in infamy for many years (possibly even decades) to come. Shameful to watch, and even upsetting to think that this is what people believe is progress and change for the better. The show is finished.
