Doctor Who 2022

I don’t know him either, but my daughter loves him and says I’ll be happy. So that’s good enough for me.

 

[Leafster]

I only know him from Sex Education. I thought he was younger but that's probably because of the character he plays in SE.

I never saw that. I heard it was about teenagers having sex, which isn’t one of my interests, although I know the programme was highly thought of.

Mr. QofG's has seen him in "Sex Ecucation" and reckons he's a good choice

 

[Saffy]

My boy is very happy! He thought the news was coming out on the 14th by flew down the stairs today grinning.

It's where my son knows him from too.

I saw one episode and thought it was a pile of shit. I was then told it was highly acclaimed so watched a couple more but didn't change my opinion.

 

[Cloo]

Interesting that they've decided to forgo the whole big build-up thing for the last two Doctors, which was slightly annoying TBF. I don't know Sex Education at all, but I think it's more than time for a black Doctor.

 

[Steel Icarus]

It's the BAFTAs tonight. Wonder if he'll be on it, and mention it to a large TV audience

 

[not a trot]

That's going to send the anti-woke lot into meltdown.

When Jodie Whitaker ws named the new Doctor, a guy on Digital Spy cried that he had now lost his childhood because the Doctor was now a woman. And he'd been a fan since the beginning.

Well hopefully he'll be cheered up by this then

(or not LOL)

He's presenting an award tonight I think.

 

[tommers]

Great choice. Really like him.

 

[Epona]

I honestly don't have a clue who he is and have never heard of him - I've not watched Sex Education - should I have?

Anyway whether I know who he is is immaterial - good luck to him and I hope we have some great episodes in the (hopefully not too distant!) future

There was a poster on here that was upset about that too, I can't remember their username.

I think most of us on here are a bit old for sex education now.

I dunno, they might do it different these days. If I ever find myself single again I'll probably have to retrain.

I can.

 

[cybershot]

He’s great in sex education. I think he’ll be superb.

 

[cupid_stunt]

I can.

Does it start with a 'G'?

 

[Supine]

Great choice. Not that i watch Dr who but he was very good in SE.

 

[danny la rouge]

Does it start with a 'G'?

And rhymes with romit.

 

[cupid_stunt]

And rhymes with romit.

I only wanted a 'yes' reply, so I could ask if it was Wallace's dog.

 

[Santino]

And rhymes with romit.

And vomit

 

[seeformiles]

I’m looking forward to it. Having a female Dr Who didn’t cause the end of the world - although a few less clumsy scripts would have been welcome. A black Doctor is perfectly fine so let’s go

 

[kittyP]

I didn't know it had been announced.
Just seen it on the BAFTAs.
I'm very pleased I think hes an excellent choice!

 

[SpookyFrank]

so so wrong.



and they looked better in 1972.

The musical cues there are fucking brilliant. I'm not one of those synth nerds who blathers on about proper analgoue kit (mostly because I can't afford it) but it does have some kind of magic to it.

 

[Kaka Tim]

Looking forward to Dr who and the exploding gammons.

 

[MickiQ]

Never heard of him either, Despite predictions that the sky would fall when Jodie Whittaker was cast it didn't. She wasn't the best Doctor but she did fine, let us give this guy a chance and see his spin on the role.
It never fails to crack me up that people are willing to take the position that an immortal shape shifting alien can only be successfully played by an old white guy.

It's just a massive shame the writing was so utterly shite. . . . worse even than Capaldi had to put up with.
