I wonder if she'll have a young, male companion or if we're going to go fully down the pc route with a black, lesbian, disabled female.
That's a good idea... Oh, wait a minute... ::)

The Beeb has been touting Dr Who and all the cr@p spinoffs as serious drama for years. As STEMO said. it,s a poorly made kids programme. My brother loves it. ;D

I'm amazed at most of you not giving a shit how public money is squandered at the BBC.  :o  :(
On my list of things to worry about, it's quite far down.  ;D

Indeed, compared to the amount of tax I pay for everything else (probably in the order of 300x more than the TV license once you factor in VAT, fuel duty, insurance premium tax, income tax, national insurance etc) it pales into insignificance.. and I quite like Dr Who

[/highlight]

New Doctor is a woman.

So a time lady rather than a time lord. :-\

Yes it is great news, but I wonder if it is a cost cutting exercise as the female actor will be paid less than her male predecessors! ::) ::)
Sorry, Lizzie, but it's non-news. The type of news that makes people look at the telly, fart, grunt and go back to something more interesting. Doctor who is a badly made kids tv series.
[/highlight]

Absolutely, but with a adult following of millions; all mad, mad, mad and bad ;D ;D ;D

Nothing will replace the REAL Dr; William Hartnell!  He was and always will be my real Doctor Who ;)

She should be paid less Lizzie because being a pretty blonde girlie she won't have any idea how to parallel park the Tardis. :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

I am shocked!!! :o :o :o :o :o ;D ;D

Well, I'd wager 80% of our taxes are squandered on pointless shit, so why get upset over the beeb.

If I can borrow your lexicon TB, it's this sort of apathy that's taking this country down the shitter!  :)
But I shout louder at the colossal wastes of money. Like the lazy and the NHS.  In comparison, the beeb burns through bugger all really.

I do find Dr Who quite tedious.  Its a vanity production to appease the 1960's/70s kids (like me), but I find it falls flat.

They should have ended it this year, as I seem to recall the Doctor cant regenerate more than 12 times...   ...and regenerate into a chick is just taking it to a new level of daftness, and clearly a case of positive discrimination.

If I were to be uncharitable I'd say you are showing your age, Lizzie. ;) :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

My favourite is Jon Pertwee who seems like a bit of 'dandy' looking back. Closely followed by the manic Tom Baker.

When you think about it though,there are many who are paid far more than they're worth-footballers for instance-but which of us if offered a stupidly high amount of cash for what we do would turn it down saying no thank you that amount is far more than I'm worth?
