Me too
Still not getting the hate for the new series
I can understand it, as you can see from my post above. People have grown up with Doctor Who*. They love it. They want it to always be the same. But it can't be the same, as the world has changed. Sadly, as evidenced in the Capaldi years, it's difficult to portray a message of diversity and inclusion when the message is coming from the mouth of middle aged white dudes. Hence, Jodie. I love Jodie. She may just be my favourite Doctor ever. She's utterly nonthreatening until she's not. She's got a steel behind her eyes that prevents disagreement. And she doesn't kill people.
And she has rainbow on her t-shirt. I mean c'mon! Are they trying to piss off the gammons? Of course they are. Long may it continue.
* Weirdly, our generation, the current 35-45 year olds are about the only group to have not had a doctor during our formative years
