Doc Whom

@RebecTV My most controversial opinion is that he & Rogue falling for each other in 5 mins makes them seem men of deep emotional sensitivity. My actual opinion is that doing so just because they looked hot makes them seem cheap & shallow - but that's maybe too obvious to be controversial.

What's your most controversial opinion of Ncuti's first series?

@kitpop1871 It certainly isn't getting anyone fired from their job, which has always been the act of a snide twat.

@Cook11Joseph It might be more accurate to say that 6 years ago the worst of fandom (defined by their inability to cope with anyone disagreeing with them) decided that anyone who didn't share their opinion of the 13th Doctor was driven by a hatred of women in general and Jodie in particular.

6 years since the worst of the fandom came out of the woodworks to make sure we knew they hated women. Well sucks to be you because… Jodie Whittaker is and always will be The Doctor!

@Tardis_Central That the very first post proposing an episode on this "sensitive" issue ends with a laughing emoji is reason enough for Doctor Who to steer clear of this. Do we really trust this to be discussed rationally and sensitively by the pit that DW fandom is capable of descending to?

✨🔷 RUSSELL T. DAVIES is open to setting an episode of #DoctorWho in Ireland! Responding to a fan on Instagram about the possibility of a historical episode in Ireland (potentially about The Troubles) and how open the BBC would be to the idea, Russell said the following:

@sadlatimer Has he actually said that now?

no but chris chibnall gave thirteen autistic traits on purpose he based her off autistic people that he knows SHE IS CANON AUTISTIC WTF

@geoffcockwill No, but liking A more than B isn't the same as not liking the whole alphabet. In fact, liking A more than B isn't disliking anything.

@DockWhom I think some people perhaps like RTDs version of Who more than any other version of it. Is that an insult?

Feel crap after the now-standard tweets just because I enjoyed Doctor Who. Why do some fans do this? What is the point? When did it become unacceptable to enjoy something? Anyway, I stand by what I said about Flux.

@batbeckett @GerardGroves Cos my Twitter connection's fucked.

Will you be upset if the 14th Doctor is a man?

@geoffcockwill You agreed that people who don't like the current series most likely don't like Doctor Who at all. How is a generalisation like that not insulting people for disagreeing with you?

@DockWhom That's 100% what I do, yes. If someone makes a claim that isn't true, I'll call it out. I certainly never question someone's mental stability or insult them for not liking something I did or enjoying something I didn't.

@wiccanstardis That's the stereotypically dumb question asked by anyone who doesn't grasp the point about Doctor Who.
