Ever since Peter Capaldi retired as the Twelfth Doctor, the long-running British sci-fi series “Doctor Who” has faced ratings troubles, with audiences expressing disinterest in the direction of the series. With the arrival of the Fifteenth Doctor, portrayed by Ncuti Gatwa, fans’ concerns with the direction of the show are reflected, as ratings continuing to decline. However, a clip from the upcoming Christmas special “The Church On Ruby Road” garnered attention — but not for the reasons that the producers may have intended. In the episode, the Doctor and his companion, Ruby, portrayed by Millie Gibson, infiltrate a church. As...

Doctor Who teased a new Rose ahead of the first David Tennant-starring 60th anniversary specials, and revealed early on that the new character with a familiar name would be played by transgender actress Yasmin Finney. While the inclusion of the character, who, like Finney is transgender and very central to the events of the episode entitled “The Star Beast,” was praised by many, the BBC revealed that not everyone was happy about Russell T Davies’ inclusive casting.

Doctor Who returned to screens tonight as part of Children in Need, with a special five-minute scene featuring the Daleks and their creator Davros. ... Davros, played once again by Julian Bleach, looked different to to how viewers might remember him – and while fans might have assumed that's simply because this particular scene was set prior to the accident that left the character scarred and reliant on his support unit, Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies has explained that there was more to it than that. Speaking on new BBC Three companion series Doctor Who Unleashed, Davies said: "We...

"The BBC action-adventure show ‘Doctor Who’ has been around for almost 60 years. From the first episode, which aired November 23, 1963, with William Hartnell as the lead character, it was originally aimed straight at children with no curve-balls other than the character being an alien (Time Lord) who protects Earth and regenerates into a new body which retains all of its memories when he is injured enough to trigger the transformation (which was used to cover for actors being replaced). Until December 26, 2017, when Peter Capaldi’s last episode ended, The Doctor had always been played by a white...

Gatwa will replace Jodie Whittaker and become the Fourteenth Doctor. Doctor Who has officially cast Sex Education's Ncuti Gatwa as the next Doctor to "take charge of the TARDIS."

Even though the Time Lords have been destroyed (twice now), there’s always a chance more Time Lords exist elsewhere in the universe still. We know about the Doctor and the Master, it’s also possible the Hermit, the Curator, the Monk, and Jenny are still about, as they’ve been known to be off-world. But even though the population of a whole species is likely down to single digits, that won’t stop fans from creating head-canons about other potential Time Lords. Mary Poppins I’ve written about this before, but Disney’s beloved Mary Poppins is remarkably similar to the Eleventh Doctor in many...

The BBC and wokeness killed the much-loved sci-fi TV series. The writer who last revived ‘Doctor Who’ is likely the only one who can save it now. “Doctor Who” is dead. Ratings haven’t been this low since the moribund 1980s. Fan interest is zilch, with little engagement on social media. The show just finished its 13th series, and the few who watched could only yawn. The doctor is on life support thanks to the BBC’s incessant diversity mandates, executive producer Chris Chibnall retcons, and the lazy pomposity of the first female doctor, Jodie Whittaker. But there is hope. A familiar...

How may virus particles (visions) does it take to start an infection? I don’t think anyone knows for sure but over the decades, at times like this, one ponders these things. My thoughts go along these lines, some things are known, much not. A lot of information is “proprietary”. If one viral particle (virion) is inhaled and lands on a nasal epithelium cell, on a specific receptor, it can...

"Doctor Who" just made history with its first ever black Doctor, who was revealed during Sunday night's episode "Fugitive of the Judoon."

The historic revelation came after a TARDIS was dug up from under Clayton's lighthouse childhood home. But neither...

VIEWERS have accused Doctor Who bosses of swiftly killing off gay and lesbian characters. They voiced anger online after a security guard was murdered in the New Year’s Day special. It happened just seconds after the guard revealed he had a boyfriend — and followed the slayings of two lesbian characters in October. The guard, played by Connor Calland, was seen challenging a Dalek-controlled character called Lin. Asked who can unlock a fingerprint-operated door, he said: “Today, just me. Most secure digits in Yorkshire. That’s what I tell my boyfriend, anyway.” Seconds later he was exterminated. Doctor Who chiefs Chris...

Doctor Who's much-hyped New Year's special is reportedly the lowest-rated episode of the show since it returned with new Doctor, Jodie Whittaker. The series - which returned on October 7 2018 for its 11th [reboot] season - concluded on December 9, with an audience of 6.65 million; but the January 1 special, which saw the infamous Daleks return to the show, haemorrhaged a massive 1.5 million viewers. Estimated overnight figures, according to doctorwhonews, report that the tally of viewers was 5.15 million on New Year's Day.
