Dr. Who Another Victim Of 'equal Opportunities'?

[AuntLydia]

Good grief that was awful. I knew she would be irritating having watched her cringe worthy interviews pre Dr. Who but....? tonight's episode should have stunned, should have been yeh this is a good move'. No. Dr. Who should not be gender specific -it is an alien FFS, not a northern lass with a 'gob on'. So what will be her USP? A sonic tampon? god help the Daleks should they meet her 'at her time of the month' annihilation . Could be interesting. We have been avid Dr' Who fans forever. First episode this series 4/10... could do better.

[Rockrose]

Sonic tampon? What were you watching?
I thought it was brilliant very refreshing! I also believe that at least on of the recent incarnation made a comment about his sexuality.
The last dr was awful no charisma at all, so it needed a shake up.

*one*

I was rather doubtful beforehand, but thoroughly enjoyed the opener tonight.

[sadielady]

Must say I did enjoy it, looking forward to next week

[AuntLydia]

Since david tennant they have all been 'caricatures' of the Dr. I did not think it was 'refreshing' I think it was desperate. Hopefully it will get better.

[sadielady]

In what respect was it desperate?

[-Talbot-]

Crap

[AuntLydia]

The characters, the storyline ( electric spaghetti and a robot loaned from transformers set) . The 'northern-ness of it " where's t' Tardis". Finally Sunday night 6.45 ...the God spot... no longer saturday night Prime Time. Speaks volumes.

Rockrose //Sonic tampon? What were you watching? //
Seriously have you NO sense of humour?

[Mamyalynne]

A good article with explanations about the change of time slot here.

We need a black gay Muslim trans amputee top be the Doctor.

[Mamyalynne]

You may have to wait for the new incarnation, we're only on episode 1 - did you not enjoy it either?

[AuntLydia]

I don't buy the reasons mamylynne. People could record Dr. Who on a Saturday, or more pertinently, record other popular programmes on at the same time on a Saturday.

[Rockrose]

its Been moved to Sunday night so they don’t have to keep moving it around because of all the reality shows.
As for a sense of humour of course I have one which is why I didn’t find your ‘joke’ remotely funny

You don't have to buy or accept them, I posted the link for information purposes.

[-Talbot-]

I'm glad I didn't watch it.

[AuntLydia]

//You don't have to buy or accept them, I posted the link for information purposes.//

and I commented with my opinions -you have a problem with that do you?

[AuntLydia]

Talbot you should watch it. You can't comment 'crap' without watching it...lol! though it was...big time.....

[AuntLydia]

Rockrose, you lack of a sense of humour is legendary on this site (apparently) . Ask AOG....

[Mamyalynne]

No, not a care in the world.
