Doctor Who Series 10

It was his laser screwdriver and he told her not to bother trying to regenerate as it was on the highest setting. As for the execution planet thing the doctor fiddled with the setting on the machine and just knocked her out. Also if missy was dead why was her body was not found by any one escaping through the lifts.

They used a super secret shaft.

That highest setting is shit. Didn't even go out the other side and put a hole in the hull.
 
Ugh. Haven't read it yet, but she picked the TARDIS for Hartnell's doc didn't she? Wonder if it'll be along those sorts of lines. Or maybe he goes to her stupid fucking diner.
Either a brief cameo like Pond got last time or something that ends with her finally being sent to her death would just about be acceptable. I'm not a big hater but she should of stayed dead.
 
I don't want a female doctor even if the female Master/Mistress has set a precedent.

However saying that... give me Phoebe Waller-Bridge over Kris Marshall any day of the week. She wrote Fleabag didn't she? I'd probably take her over Moffat as a writer too.
 
Happy with anyone but Kris bloody Marshall. I can't believe they'd make such a rotten choice but have a horrible feeling some BBC executive has decided Kris is popular with the family audience (and probably pretty cheap too).
 
Why is that?
After 64 years I've kinda gotten used to him being a man.

They've changed the chocolate they use for KitKats. Guess what? They're shit now. I was used to how they tasted before.

But in all honesty it's because I know so much time will be spent on commenting how the Dr is a woman now and making big deals (and lame jokes) out of it instead of just romping joyfully through the galaxy.

They may eventually settle down to not to making a big deal out of it but by then it will be too late.

If they 'Starbuck' it then excellent but this is the Beeb and a flagship programme.
 
Christmas special will be about The Doctor learning how change is great after all through his interactions with himself leading to the announcement of an extra big change. It's a cliché and Moffat will handle it badly then Kris Marshall will turn up.
 
I must be the only person who thinks Doctor Who is one of the few vehicles that plays to Kris Marshall's limited acting range. It's not a role notable for all its subtle nuances. Everyone loved Tom Baker, and it's difficult to come up with many bigger hams.

And I liked "My Life in Film", fwiw.
 
My daughter is really not happy about missy going.
Bloody hell, she was talking about Dr who all the way to school this morning. She loved capaldi as the doctor, but is somehow feverishly excited about the regeneration.
 
I do think whoever they have, and in a way it would be a shame for it to happen with a woman in the role, they should dial back the Doctor's magical abilities somewhat. Super regenerations that come from nowhere and destroy Dalek fleets, mind melds, keepy uppies and other shit. I get that shows and Doctors change but early on he was essentially just a frail old man who was smart enough to get one over on all sorts of nasties. Patrick Troughton wasn't as old or as frail but he still solved problems with his wits and played on the fact people thought him a fool. Pertwee brought in a bit of karate. That's not neccessarily problematic. Travelling through Time and Space for thousands of years you're going to learn new skills. It would be nice if we saw that learning more often though. I thought the best thing about that Robins Hood episode was he beat the thieving shit at sword fighting and then at shooting arrows. The sword fighting seemed to me just a party trick and the arrows was science. Beaten by deception. None of this the Doctor can outdo the best of the best at their own game shit. It's the Time Lord or alien super powers that appear and disappear for the sake of the so called plot piss me off the most though. When they add nothing to the plot but you're supposed to believe they do is the worst. The message in Bills mind the week before last for example. Adds nothing. Seems he is now immortal and all Captain Scarlett without even needing the last resort of regeneration. Bollocks.
 
He's regenerated so many times that rather than running out of regen power like he's supposed to... he's made regeneration his bitch.

Holding it off by sheer will alone and siphoning it off to heal others.

Yeah, bollocks. Super fucking powers.
Missy offered him an indestructible cyber army and unlimited power to Sam Beckett it around the universe. He already has that but it's unexplored. A fucking big elephant. They copped out of that one letting him just take the bracelet off. A bit of time with him dealing with that power and being tempted etc could of been interesting. Oh no one speech and it's all over. If your going to make him a super powered immortal god at least go with it but I'd rather have the underdog with something about him and a time machine.

Underdog?!

He keeps bragging about how he's the Doctor. Look me up. I'm the invincible super power.
He then tries to play it off as a menacing bluff to his companions but in truth he's really is saying to his opponents that he is the killer beanz. Number one badass if he must be.

Unfortunately the only Doctor Who truly managed to pull off menacing was Ecleston. He was the only one you could believe when he said don't fuck with me I'll destroy your arse.

Would you deploy these arguments against women politicians, scientists or train drivers?

Does that work for you as well? :)

No I'm not against trans people in any of those careers. Just fictional characters doing it for cheap plot.
 
Don't understand the question.
You say you don't want a female Doctor because of your expectations and the possibility it would attract interest. I'm asking if you would deploy the same arguments against a BME Doctor.
