This thread is for the dug out surely?
No really a fan tbh but the Daily Mail seeth is delicious...

Can women be doctors? This is ridiculous.
I actually really like Dr Who, it's harmless fun, I don't mind that a shapeshifting alien is going to be a woman this time, twitter has went into overdrive about it on all sides, didn't realise Dr Who was so popular :faf:
I find it a bit sad that this is even news - "job given to a woman" - it's the 21st century, the notion that certain jobs cannot be done by women should have been consigned to history by now.
I don't usually watch but I may do so just to ensure that the ratings don't give the detractors a chance to say "we told you so".
It seems to be traditional for the Doctor to live in North London - at any one time, we can have 3 doctors and the master in my neighbourhood.
I wonder when she's moving in.
So Doctor Who.......
is an alien....cool
is thousands of years old......neat
can regenerate multiple times and gets a new body and personality every time......wow
is a time-traveller.....thats incredible
has a spaceship that looks like a phonebox.......what fun
but its actually really really massive inside.......nice!
and it also changes its interior when the doctor regenerates.......makes sense
saves the world using a sonic screwdriver.....a what?
looks like a really fat pen with a light and goes "woo-ee-ooo"........strange but acceptable
The doctor is super smart, protects the human race from evil aliens, dislikes violence and guns........sounds like a real hero
and then there are the companions.........who?
the companions that travel with the doctor, the current one is a black lesbian........nice to have a bit of diversity.
Oh and the next regeneration makes The Doctor a woman.........HOLD ON, THATS OUTRAGEOUS AND TOTALLY WRONG!!!!!!!!
people are s**t they really are
This guy is the voice of reason:
This is a show about an alien whose race changes bodies bodies when they die, but no this one isn't allowed to be female ever. It's a tv show people.
He'll be on about 20k thumbs down by midnight. I've never really watched Dr Who, not my thing, but can't see the big deal about it being a woman tbh. Does it matter?
It's PC gone mad.
The whole universe must be laughing at us.
I'm quite chuffed for her. I thought she was brilliant in Broadchurch
They've only done this so they can pay the Doctor 10% less.
I see the predictable Tardis parking funnies are already doing the rounds.
The beeb must be delighted with the furore they have created by splashing this all over the news bulletins. It's pretty cynical really.
Can't believe some of the reactions to this.
Its a kids programme!!!!!
Disgusted that almost 8% of the people who have played Dr who are female!
Where's the equality towards men? Are we supposed to deal with a meagre 92%?
Next they'll be wanting the vote.
I'm interested in the power and influence of the "PC Brigade" that the Mail readers refer to.
How does one sign up? Does it have a provisional wing?
I've often wondered how one joins the 'PC Brigade'. It's quite appealing to me tbh.
