    Haven't actually watched any of Peter Capaldi's run. Matt Smith was good but I thought his last season sort of dragged.

    Well unless she takes it up there in one off the episodes then this will be a disaster.

    Have never watched this programme in my life and won't be starting now.

    But if this casting choice was made for the reason I think it was made then the show will be *.

    For the sake of diversity?

    Obviously people will be thinking that but who gives a * even if it was true? She's a good actress and it's something new. A female Doctor with presumably a male companion at least changes it up a bit.

    I'm not a fan of the show so won't bother me.

    But has that Ghostbusters remake feel about it...

    A woman Dr Who and possibly a black James Bond in the future.

    It's sad that we have to be so PC not to offend anyone.

    I think that was more on the nose though. They took the original, 4 guys, and changed it to 4 women....it was clear that the motivation was to make a female version of Ghostbusters because "look, I care about diversity".

    The Doctor changes every few years and we've seen countless males in the role so it's more of a case of "why not?"

    Like I said, at the very least it brings something new to the table.

    Cybermen are now Cyberpeople and many of the Daleks are now to wear French Knickers.

    What's really sad is that people actually give a * about the gender/skin colour of a character. It's actually pathetic.

    Stopped watching with Peter Capaldi as the dr, thought he sucked, hopefully Jodie is better. I'll give it a watch. Thought Jodie was really good in Broadchurch so I can see her being a really good doctor
