Well, as I expected - the new Doctor Who was comically bad; it's tanked and quite rightly it's been very poorly received. It seems that a lot of reviewers are blaming the descent of the show into hysterical limp-wristed wokery on Disney, but I think we know that's the BBC's doing.

Couldn't make it up, really.

Just a vehicle for the BBC to foist their woke nonsense on viewers as they continue to try to mould the world into the one they believe we should live in.

As I mentioned in the "What's on...." thread this was the first Dr Who I've watched since Matt Smith left. I thought it was pretty good tbh. My wife mentioned to me that some reviews were very positive - depends where you look I suppose.

Very cogent, but bluntly NSFW analysis here. Quite a lot of these have turned up on YouTube now.

The film/TV reviewer The Critical Drinker on YT is another well worth checking out for his astute dismantling of the calamity this show has become in recent years.

Fortunately, mine's still young enough that she listens to her rationalist, classical libertarian daddy (and isn't interested in Doctor Who regardless). ;)
