WTF? Why on Gallifrey not? The Dr can be anyone upon a regeneration. Something you don’t like about a regeneration as a black person or dwarf?

I have been watching old Doctor Who recently, just to relive some of my childhood really.
It was always mostly rubbish, but I feel like its best years were John Pertwee and the first couple of seasons with Tom Baker.
Then it turned into something looking like a quasi Shakespeare play in space for the most part. The BBC historical wardrobe department got raided regularly.

The wokery of the recent episodes is laughable, and the BBC should be ashamed of itself for allowing such blatant propaganda in what is essentially a show for youngsters. Russell T Davis wants to turn the world gay, and the casting of non White people is farcical, especially when they are playing historical White people. That is just staggering hypocrisy.

I think Doctor Who has survived because it is very British, and that is quite rare in science fiction. Unfortunately, very British now includes ridiculous levels of wokery because of the kind of people that the BBC now employs.

I love this, true as well . . . [Link]

It was. It was also a good read. Used to make me smile. I still have my copy.
