New Doctor! Contains Spoiler

[TwickenhamCyclist]

I'm far too worried about genitalia to make a comment on a fictional character...

The farking tardis is gonna end up parked in all the wrong places.

What, like just at the entrance to a black hole?

Basically, it's about time.

I think its good though I wanted someone else, a show like Doctor Who needs change to keep it interesting.

A bird! It's just wrong. The Doctor is a bloke, there's no way a bird can understand space time or spatial awareness, everyone knows that; unbelievable. The farking tardis is gonna end up parked in all the wrong places.

And from a dog who thinks its cool to wear a beanie hat ;-)))

Well the colony ship was at fault there.

No problem with the Doctor being a woman - it's long overdue, but having just watched the BBC News by heck aren't the Beeb pleased with themselves about it?

A bigger problem might be addressing the poor scripts and the over-reliance on the Daleks and Cybermen.

Well the colony ship was at fault there.

The Doctor/Tardis symbiosis should surely be sentient enough to work out that at the entrance to a black hole on a colony ship full of incipient Cyberpeople isn't a desperately bright place to end up.

Exactly, and things are set to get worse with a bird at the helm. If I recall the Tardis is female too which is probably why the Doctor kept getting in a pickle in the first place.

the Tardis is female

All vessels are female, by convention only. You're projecting archaic understandings of human gender norms onto alien life forms (Time Lord and TARDIS), in which we already know that gender identity is much more fluid than it is on earth.

@Moderators, can you change the thread title to "Who's that Girl"

 

[Crackle]

Actually, I'm much more interested in the fact there's a new writer. I can't recall anything of interest for the last couple of series. A few moments but no Ood, weeping angels or anything else really striking.

 

[Levo-Lon]

Because it had all been thoroughly sensible up to then?

You used to sort of have a story you could follow i guess, it went way to weird for my liking.
Even mrs lon got fed up after Smith..

Missy seemed to hold her own..........

Can a Time Lord be a Time Lady ? or is it a Time Dame ?

Yebbut, she can go back in time until she gets it right, a la Groundhog Day.
