‘Doctor Who: Jodie Whittaker’s debut is most watched launch for 10 years’…
An average of 8.2m tuned in to watch actor as first female Doctor, with peak of 9m and audience share of 40.1%
I really enjoyed it, and was left wanting to watch the next episode after the credits finished rolling there and then. Thought it was a great introduction to the new Doctor, a good well-written and solid story - in a ‘villain of the week format’, decent and promising background cast, nicely executed CGI/effects, with some quality humour, peril, suspense and emotional spots all hitting the right notes. An all-round enjoyable watch for me.
For a new writing team and cast it was an impressive and intriguing start, with lots of potential - especially so from Jodie Whittaker.
Sweet to hear some nothern accents - and they made Sheffield look half decent too 😃
