You really should see Ryan Johnson’s doctor. I know it’s not “canon”, but the woman who played the doctor was quite good, it wasn’t a joke, and it was 30 years ago. There were 4 episodes, the 4th one being the best.

Ryan has a website that can be found with a modest bit of googling.

I am intrigued - will certainly give it a go.

 

 

On a separate note I don’t get all the selective cherry-picking of past episodes to try and discredit the notion that a Gallifreyan can’t change sexes - we’re told, and have been shown, that they can change colour, age, personality, character, memory, and sex - so it’s hardly a big surprise…

Over 20 regenerations of various characters in old and new Who before Missy, not once was there a gender change not once.

and just because it hasn’t been mentioned in the earlier Who content doesn’t mean it’s any less correct.

perhaps, but if Timelords can change gender, the lack of any mention of this(and the lack of it actually happening) for over 50 years, is quite glaring.

The Doctor will be a woman - big deal.

Just like it would be no big dead if Romana or Rani changed into a man. Right.

It wouldn’t be a big deal if Romana (Fred) or Rani regenerated into a man - as previously said. Why would it?

What are you talking about with this (Fred). If Romana ever regenerated into a male and went by the name Fred, I have never heard about it.

Read back through my post on it in here - and you’ll find the answer.

I didn’t see any answer to my question in the above post and I am not about to re-read the entire thread. Perhaps I’ll google it one day.

Now, why would it be a big deal if Romana or Rani regenerated into a man?

because feminists.

For someone who is ‘done with Doctor Who’ you sure are making a lot of posts about it still.

It’s next to the one where you lied about what I said - or rather didn’t say.

The Doctor is The Doctor - albeit a Gallifreyan - whether young, old, white, black, male, female - or even ginger.

We have seen / been told that Gallifreyans regenerate into a different sex before too - The Corsair or The Master/Missy for example…

Think we will ever see a male Romana or Rani?

Fred? Yes, why not?

huh?

Romanadvoratrelundar seemed to be too long a name when she introduced herself to the Doctor. He had trouble pronouncing the full name, and quickly shortened it to “Romana”, though given the choice of being called “Romana” or “Fred” she told him to call her “Fred”.

So yes, Fred. Why not?

I’m sick of everyone giving Warbler shit and even suggesting that what he is saying makes him someone who is acting like a sexist pig. He simply doesn’t agree with the change about a character and to call him sexist is completely out of line.

This is why “liberal snowflake” is a commonly used term. Your calling him a sexist for a creative disagreement over a character and their identity.

I think the only one in here to mention ‘sexist pig’ is…

Warbler said:

and call me a sexist pig and bigot all you want. I don’t care.

and no-one else.

I just hope Jodie Whittaker gets some decent stories and lines - she’s a talented and interesting actress - and that the series does well.

There’s that tired excuse again. This “precedent” was created after Moffat was accused of sexism and the new fangirls started demanding a female Doctor. Since then to combat that image he kowtowed and started to introduce those elements. Nowhere in the classic series is something like this hinted at. If NuWho can’t get the Doctor’s age right, I’m certainly not going to trust it with something like this.

I’ll be watching the Christmas Special and first episode of series 11 but will probably be stopping after that. I would not be surprised to see the show’s ratings start to drop after this.

Not so much a ‘tired excuse’ if it is new, no?

 

To me it’s all the same series - Doctor Who.

We also recently saw a Gallifreyan regenerate from an old white man into a young black woman - just seemed to be part of the Gallifreyan life.

Did it ever happen before Missy came along? Did it ever happen in the old series? We went 50 years without a regeneration causing a gender change. Moffat added that capability for PC reasons, as oojason said.

I certainly didn’t say it was for pc reasons.

The idea of stopping to watch a TV show because a woman is a main character is ridiculous to me.

In this particular science-fiction universe the species that is The Doctor has already established having their people changing genders when they regenerate…

An alien who can travel through space & time, has a time machine in the form of a 1950s UK police box, appears to be immortal, fighting some bad actors (and unconvincing paper mache / CGI monsters) along the way, has two hearts, all fine…

…now has a vagina - people get upset and say they are going to stop watching.

Rise of the Rebellion: A Rogue One Edit (Released)
Time

Very intriguing DigMod - and some cool artwork too 😃

Personally, am not sure on the ‘more ethical Cassian retreat’ (I think the original scene gives more depth to his character for later in his speech to Jyn on Yavin IV for his and others’ decision to fight, as well as adding a bit of ‘grey’ to the Rebellion)… and the removal of the Chirrut’s ‘Are you kidding? I’m blind!’ line - which I kind of liked. Everyone’s a critic, eh? 😃

Having said that I’m very much looking forward to seeing it - and very nice work on the skin regrades for Leia & Tarkin too.

 

btw - could you point me in the direction of your Ep1 and Ep 2 Edits please mate? Would like to see them and how they roll into this Ep3 Edit too.
