Personally, I find nothing more dull than white british ladies as leads. She could be a great actress but this is the lowest form of appealing to diversity movements.

No, I'd be perfectly fine if they had the balls to make her East Asian British, South Asian British, Middle Eastern British, African British. It is the fact that they chose a white British actress which I find dull. Same can be said for Star Wars, they could have chosen anyone to be the lead in Rogue One and they chose a white British lady. There are plenty of great British actresses who are not white. --- 3DS fc 2363-5810-2795 "I've said a lot of things before." - Bok, 2014 ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just want to see HOW she handles the role after the dust settles. Because, usually every time the Doctor has changed, they become a bit loopy and don't fully fit into the role tell all their memories return.

I'm just glad that Moffat isn't the boss any more. I never liked his stuff as showrunner - The Empty Child was rad as fuck, but his go-to mood was "spooky cosmic/Gothic horror" and "completely exaggerated world-shattering event that will leave the universe in complete shock and disarray". Rebooting the entire universe as the payoff in Series 5 was the straw that broke the camel's back for me, and with every new development (
I hope to watch through all of Moffat's era and draw up an actual informed opinion, not just reacting to garbage I don't like. But for now, I'm just happy that some other person gets to handle the reins from here on in. --- And outside it's ninety-two degrees, and KROQ is playing Siouxsie and the Banshees.

It would probably be hard to do though. Animals and Child actors are usually pretty terrible to deal with, unless they're CGI and then that would just ruin the show.
I am looking forward to seeing how the Female Doctor is AFTER the first 2-3 episodes. Because that's usually the point where you can see how the actor or actress fits into the role. --- It's far better to be alive than to be dead ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm fine with it. As long as she's good it doesn't really matter. But the shitshow on both sides is going to be insufferable and the "progressivism" behind the choice is still eye-rolling.

Zero complaints right now A lot of people have zero faith in the writers to handle it well rather than the casting itself. Moffat's pandering was notorious in later episodes of his tenure, so hopefully with him gone they moved beyond that hamfisted cringe and can do it with a bit more deftness. I can understand why a show with a most likely predominantly male audience doesn't want to be told how stupid they are by a character they've grown to love over the years or having said character be used as a mouthpiece for some showrunner's obsession with earning brownie points. --- ...

I kind of stopped watching Doctor Who this last season. But I am interested to see how how the Female Doctor is AFTER she get's over her amnesia. Because every time the doctor regenerates, he/she tends to completely forget who they are for an episode.
