- Sky News host Rita Panahi has slammed a woke Doctor Who 60th-anniversary special after the Doctor assumed an alien’s pronouns.
In the clip, Doctor Who is scolded by a transgender character for calling an alien “him”.
The Doctor asks Beep the Meep what pronouns to use, with the alien saying it uses the definite article in conjunction with the creature’s name.
In a separate clip, the same transgender character also told Doctor Who it was a shame he was no longer a woman.
Ms Panahi said she would rather stick thumbtacks in her eyes than watch the show.
As an evil disabled man, I feel very offended that Dr. Who has chosen to no longer represent me in their quest for "inclusion."
😂
the Dr. was one of the worlds best tv series till they whent woke the true origins of the Dr. they even messed with and fkd up greatly..... hell the Dr. was always supposed to be a Man anyway never a heshe it thing no a man from another time and space trying to save all time and all space for reasons the show purposly left in the air after all Dr. who is the time Dr. that mistique helped make it so great! then it whent to shite.
I didn't see the Davros episode (fortunately) they literally said we can't have him in a wheelchair, he's a fricking cyborg with half dalek.... Although I guess he will be going up to them to ask them their pronouns now....My pronouns are.... Exterminate! Ha ha, at last we killed the doctor 😅
Exactly, I spend a good amount of time in a wheelchair and I was never offended by Davros. I did have some hope for Dr Who but it`s gone woke and I hope it goes broke.
@@gifgit good amount of the time huh so you don't actually need the chair good job idiot.... not!
The Doctor has literally changed gender twice in recent years ... having a 'trans person' attempt to lecture the Doctor about gender issues is both unintentionally hilarious and sad.
It was quite funny actually. You should watch the show, you'd probably enjoy it
@@peterjermey7235 it was overt misandry and transphobia. If you are talking about the whole "male presenting" line.
@@NoName-ym5zj BS
They did a really good job of showing how a realistic trans teenager might react without being preachy or getting in the way of the narrative.
Personally I can't take any atheist seriously.
@@st.michaelofcigarillo2845Honestly wish more people saw the merit in at least being agnostic about their nature. It's less confusing to imagine someone or something has a purpose for us than that we are here for no reason other than the random probable but extremely rare chance of the events that have occured on Earth. (It's also way less depressing and existential)
Doctor Who used to be about the monster of the week. Now the only monsters are the writers who turned it into woke trash lecturing viewers. Show is garbage.
The second story ever in 1963 was an allegory against fascism. Doctor Who has always been a political show.
I was cheering for the meep!
You've never watched Dr Who, because it's always been woke. The second story in 1963 was the introduction of the Daleks and was a warning on nuclear weapons as well as directly comparing the Daleks to Nazis.
I always thought it was garbage anyway
@@madadam81 The Daleks were inspired by The Nazis which was legendary anyway and made into their own out of it. I don’t even see what that has to do with pronouns, men bashing and gender race swapping an old character its not even the same.
Doctor who lost me when they attempted to make dr. Who a woman. This just sealed it for me. Sick of being force fed this woke crap. Goodbye.
Yeah, it lost a lot of viewers once that happened. But before that was hints. My grandparents liked watching it
Having Dr Who reanimate as a woman should have been a great addition to the Dr Who Time Lords personas, but it went for Woke not Woman.
The second story back in 1963 was an allegory against fascism. Doctor Who has always been woke.
The use of the word woke was never about political ideology but was about social issues, mainly racial issues. It is an incorrect use of the word itself in the first place and was coined by black people originally who were talking about awareness of racial inequlaity. Since then, mostly from the 2010's it has had its meaning spread out, so much so that now it has very little meaning and is more of a pejorative now than anything else. So no, Dr Who was not woke, that is a recent thing.@@peterjermey7235
All history of doctor who not one said anything about we change genders the doctor who was always a male till the writers change his story and timeline that doctor who was a girl as a child then only was women two times in his history.. if this doctor who was real in our world this version I wouldn't go near or travel with.. hes/she or what ever he is to woke
No one can convince me that any of those students shown at Harvard got in on their merits.
Too too true! 😂
Doctor Gone Woke.
Goodbye Doctor, from a fan who watched for 50+ years.
If you did watch the show for so long, didn't you notice anything back then, that would be deemed "woke" nowadays?
I think doctor who changes to suit the different generations that will watch it. It is pretty much inevitable that at some point people are going to leave certain progressive shows like doctor who, because that’s how the world moves on and Doctor who is and has been for a long time one of the shows on the forefront of the world moving on. So as many fans leave new fans arrive, which is kind of what a show that is designed to last a very long time needs. Again, I didn’t mind anything in that episode, nothing in it annoyed me (although the ‘male presenting time lord’ part wasn’t needed. However, I can almost say for certain, as a natural process that happens to go on in the world and has been going on since humans ever became Homo sapiens - intelligent, one day I probably will leave the show. Why? Progression. But when that happens, new fans would arrive, and the cycle would continue (that is if doctor who lasts that long and I think it can).
Woke is a good thing, and is derivative from the numerous ideas that has happened within society for centuries. Essentially, if there was never ANY progression, we would still be cavemen fighting woolly mammoths with big spears and generally unhygienic and a much shorter lifespan than we have now. Progression is a good thing and has bought us to this position, and will continue ever onwards so we can thrive in the future.
I watched from 1988 to 2016.... I think it got canceled then... seems to be some weird copycat since and not worth the time.
Why do black Americans care about Palestinians? when did Palestinians ever help them? How do they help them now? It's so stupid.
Its all about the oppressed/oppressor nonsense. Most of these clowns can't find Israel on the map. I don't even know where "Palestine" is, since that was just another name for Israel!
@@Yesica1993it’s bullshit indeed, what does one thing have to do with the other?
@@craigarkensaw Like I said, it's the oppressed/oppressor Marxist nonsense. Blacks still pretend to be oppressed in 2024 America. And everyone thinks Israel is the aggressor, instead of the victims of jihad by the death cult of Islam. It's partly due to 24/7 media brainwashing and partly due to their own willful ignorance and internal Jew-hatred, which is really rooted in hatred of the biblical God.
The minute Dr Who went woke with a female Doctor, they lost me
I watched the first 3 episodes of Jodie's Doctor and just checked out. You didn't miss anything.
I fell alseep litterally after 2 episodes on hers and never came back
I wasn't thrilled with the feminist pandering but I have liked Jodie Whittaker in other things so I watched a couple of episodes. I didn't like her in Doctor Who.
Oh so you didn't make it to the episode with the pregnant man.
Having a female doctor isn’t/wasn’t the issue, it was the horrifically bad (and woke) writing that was the issue. Tilda Swinton as the Doctor with a non-woke writer would have been great. Tbh the show started to plop off into the crapper when that dusty old living corpse Capaldi took over
I grew up with original Dr Who. So sad to see the way it's going. R.I.P. Dr Who.
The show had evolved to what it is today, it has stood the test of time, no pun intended, but for it to have lasted 60 years must mean something. May it go from strength to strength, and judging from the first two episodes, it will carry on for another 60 years at least.
Oh no! Ratings are down. Old time fans are turning away! Newton can no longer be white according to present day makers of the show. What a shower! @@CamcorderSteve
It's dead Jim
@CamcorderSteve the writers have stabbed the good Dr. In the heart.....yes, as the below comment says, he's dead Jim.
@@CamcorderSteve At this point I'd be shocked if it got another season. I've never seen the show before but it's always had an iconic place in pop culture, from the "are you my mummy?" gas mask thing to the infamous blue time travel box. Part of the fun of science fiction and fantasy is that these genres allow us to escape into something limitless. Nobody wants to watch a TV show that mocks them or that tells them their favourite franchise has been offensive up until now.
So long Dr. Who...it was nice knowing you before you jumped even deeper down the woke rabbit hole
He's banned for telling the truth about terrorists to protect terrorists students' feelings?? Seriously? Wtf??
And that Dr who bs... if my eyes rolled any harder they'd pop out of my head
Kids used to hide behind cushions watching Dr Who in the 60s and 70s, scared of the daleks and cyber men etc . Now it would be in embarrassment!
Ahem, that's cyber person! How dare you assume their gender.
@zacharythomson9968 I wonder what the Cyberpersons pronouns would be?
A comic could get a good skit out of it.
That's why the Cybermen are so angry. They have all those people and no pronouns!
I always looked forward to a good Dalek, Davros, Supeme Dalek, Cyberman and Master Story. Peter Capaldi was the last. They will never go back to the original format even though the ratings would be better.
My first episode into watching Doctor Who was Blink with the Weeping Angels
It's not just that college leans left, it is trying to literally rewrite history. That is the scariest part.
It’s way worst than that…
Being left wing is a legitimate point of view
But woke people are not left wing they’re just insane idiots
How to destroy a franchise indeed. The Daleks couldn’t do it, the Cybermen, Silurians and Ice Warriors couldn’t do it, but Chibnall and Whittaker did it.
No they didn't.
We have 3 more specials coming then 1 full series in the can and a 2nd has already started shooting.
Chibnall and Whitaker didn't destroy the show at all
@@peterjermey7235
Yes they did. The number of viewers has been dropping like a stone for years. It used to be one of the most popular shows on TV, now it is a pathetic joke, watched only by a few woke saddos. It's laughable how they keep trying to make it trendy by 'getting down wiv da yoof - fam' 🙄
They have deserted their core audience.
@@peterjermey7235 No, my friend. What you are describing is the pure necromancy of a dead franchise.
@@peterjermey7235 Chibnal and Whitaker and Capaldi are insults to the memory of the Doctor,The writer's brought Ridiculous Pronoun's and Alphabet stupidity into a classic family show! Doctor Who is DEAD!!!
@@peterjermey7235Worst audience scores in the shows recent history and a 43% audience retention of the people who watched Whittaker's 1st episode say otherwise (losing over 6 million viewers from S11, EP1 to S13, EP6!!!)
I would be fine with diverse characters in Dr Who or whatever provided we get good writing and script. However, wokeness appears to require that the characters are diverse and the story is all about diversity and political correctness. Little to no room for an actual story.
Why would you be fine with it, what would it bring to the franchise?
@@patriotunion7211 What I'm saying is that a diverse Dr Who lead wouldn't bother me if "its" diversity was only incidental to the story. And I'm sure a diverse Dr Who could be very well written by good writers, but that isn't what happens. There are many choices that have been made in the past regarding character traits (and I mean not with current woke criteria), some have worked and some not. eg. giant ants, which didn't quite cut the mustard. cheers
I just watch classic DW and enjoy seeing 99% White people. English, Welsh, Scottish, Irish.
@@your_belief_vs_everything Yeah, their great. I am re-watching from the first ever episode, now up to "Shada", been very enjoyable.
@@your_belief_vs_everything Yo watch the wire
As someone whos watched Who since it re aired in the early 2000s. It has always been a progressive and inclusive show... but now its politics are rammed down my throat like a bad meal. Absolutely lost me.
Yeah, it was decent and even sometimes pretty good up until the end of Matt Smith's run in 2013, then it seemed like poor Peter Capaldi got blindsided by this woke crap in 2014 and the show just became completely unwatchable from that point on.
Calm down it’s two clunky written lines, the rest of the episode was fine.
@@accidentcellar6307that scene was awesome
Tell me you haven't watched the show without telling me
@@accidentcellar6307 Yeah the wheelchair shit was funny as fuck cuz it was goofy. How I like my campy doctor who cheap and cheese
Dr Who used to be great. I can recall, as a kid, it was essential Saturday afternoon viewing - imaginative, entertaining, scary but not too scary, and with the signature cliffhanger at the end of each episode. A week was such a long time to wait before discovering the fate of the Dr!
So sad to see what it’s evolved into.
i was looking forward to the specials but now, fuck it, i'm tired of being disrepected for simply being a man and seeing it happen all the time in western media.
i'm sticking to anime from now.
I mean, there are a wide amount of animes that also have "transgender" characters or situations. But they're less upsetting i guess.
I don’t think “man” and “anime” go in the same sentence 😂
@@greg8938 yeah they do. you don't need to be a child to enjoy good content and cartoons.
@@lautarovazquez3193 i would call them crossdessers more than anything else, at least of the few i watched but they weren't ones i really watched for very long. mostly due to the main character annoying me or the story just being boring.
I'm with you on the anime. No bullshit, no woke, just fun
Mitt Romney: "I'm willing to vote for any Republican who, like me, is willing to sell out to Democrats at a moment's notice."
HOW does Romney call himself a conservative?🤦♂️
Dr Who lost his bollocks long time ago!
Romney is still mad because Trump didn’t give him a cabinet position.
Rita's hilarious. Thanks for exposing what's really going on - with a little humor.
Agree!
Thank you lord for Sky news Australia. I feel sanity restored when I watch this program.
Dr Who used to be a brilliant series when it was re-introduced with Christopher Eccleston and Billy Piper, even though there were leftie elements creeping in back then.
I am a qualified lesbian too
@@accidentcellar6307 I am a woman
Choosing Christopher Eccleston, someone who despised Dr Who to start with, looked a bad option. Obviously it never git better.
@@esterbengoa6077 I am planning to get pregnant
As a HUGE Dr Who fan who applied to be an extra as I live in Wales who has visited the centre in Cardiff when it was open many times completely gave up and has not watched an episode since they turned him into a woman who once said in an argument "is it because im a woman"..... Dr Who has never demanded respect for his gender before.
Its often had the odd woke line but nooooo gone too far im done its not for me it's gone from sci-fi hero drama to sci-fi cringe it's not Dr Who anymore.
Thank God we can still criticize them, but who knows how much longer we will be able to. When all these students get into leadership positions this may end.
1:58 I love blacks ability to always position themselves on the wrong side of history, and on the wrong side of everything.
And making everything about them. I must have missed the part where blacks were being massaced in the 21st century like the poor isrealis at that music festival were
God bless Isreal and screw Dr. Woke.
We know when Dr. Who officially ended, just as we know when Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Marvel & Disney officially ended. Nostalgia viewing is all we have left.
The poor kids. This virus is getting everywhere. I find it appalling
Romney's as mad as Biden. Get rid of him GOP.
He's angry that he didn't get elected but Trump did. He's angry that the GOP public and MAGA politicians are demanding his niece lose the GOP chairperson position. He's angry that he's being pushed out of power by MAGA. I voted in him in 2012 and I'm now so glad he lost. Whatever good I thought about him is gone.
I don't recognise Dr Who from the show I watched as a kid. Problem is, the kids can be influenced by all the wokery going on in the show. They could grow up identifying as a Dalek or Cyberman, or even worse, a yeti..
When I was a teenager we had girls who liked what males liked and dressed like males...we called them tomboys and they were cool as frick because they were like your best friend and could potentially be a love interest. Now our teachers are encouraged to tell tomboys they really are boys and should look into hormonal and cosmetic surgeries to express their male gender.
Sure 😂
Mitt won't vote for Vivek because Vivek called out his niece- the chair of the RNC.
On the professor speaking the truth about Hamas, its not surprising a university will pick woke idiology over truth, justice, and the american way. The surprising thing is that a teacher had the courage to stand up for himself, the truth and Israel.
No longer Dr Who. Now Dr WTF!!!
Doctor Woke would also be appropriate
Or Doctor Who Cares?
The thing that really pee'd me off about doctor who was that if this had been an episode that had happened during the chibnall/wittiker era it would have just been par for the course ..it was the fact that they dangled tennant( possibly the most popular doctor ever)and tate in front of us to get as many eyes as they could back onto the product then use them to get " the message" across ..I thought that was really low even by BBC standards ....I for one will never watch this show again and neither will my children...doctor who is done
Great show! Wow, thanks for the warning on the new Dr Who, crossing that off my list.
The BBC just can’t help themselves. With it being clear that the Jodie-era Doctor had reached an all-time low they finally decided that a new writer and regeneration was required. Shock horror they came up with Ncuti - were they deliberately doubling down. I believe that even they knew this was going to be a challenge because, I believe, they made up a story that Ncuti was busy with other work so couldn’t take up the reins straight away so they introduced three episodes with past favourites RTD and Tennant. In my mind this was purely a ruse to raise up the interest and audience so that Ncuti had a good starting point. This is sort of ratified because the start of the Doctor Who has been delayed so presumably what ever ‘made up’ prior engagements Ncuti had would have been over so he could have started without the need of the Tennant fill-in.
But then the BBC just could not leave it alone. Instead of create a 3 episode mini-series to lift the interest in Doctor Who with good old-fashioned, tried and tested, story telling they double-down with this garbage (and more).
All I can say is “good luck Ncuti” because you aren’t going to be starting out on the stable, popular, foundation that you expected.
Did you see the audio clip of Tennant talking about how it would be good to "do it" one more time? ( Catherine Tate and David Tennant as Dr.Who and Donna )
Saying that they may have put the idea into Russel T Davies' head and then it went ahead when he re-took the helm as show writer.
When I heard Tennant was going to come back along with Tate I was kinda excited. Seeing that clip - I'm not going to bother watching. I would say that I'm so disappointed except that I don't care anymore. The entertainment industry has proven they are incapable of producing quality so it's better to not put too much interest or energy into anything so that when they do fuck it up you can shrug your shoulders and watch old episodes when TV was great fun.
are we forgetting bill potts who reminded us all the time she was a lesbian and she come before jodie and chris
@@CZcamsBlobMcFish Any before her we had Captain Jack who kept going on about how he would do anything.
But I didn’t find Captain Jack or Jill anywhere near as preachy as the Jodie Foster and now David Tennant eras.
Was genuinely looking forward to Doctor who, The previous dynamic of Catherine Tate and David Tennant was good so it seemed the series was back on track after losing its way but unfortunately No.
The BBC decided to go with, if its broke, don't fix it, make it worse. And it did indeed get worse. the story line was awful, the woeful way they deprecated men and the predictable spilling of the coffee at the end made the whole episode a 60th anniversary episode to remember, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons.
I find it amazing that the doctor has battled all manner of evils throughout the galaxy and beaten them every time but when faced with some moronic woke twats he fold like a house of cards blown over by a fart.
Dr Who becomes Dr Woke. William Hartnell must be spinning in his Tardis.
Priviledged black students acting Oppressed
I am ashamed to say I am American. Our country is so mixed up! All I can do is pray and stand up for morals and truth!
Maybe it it time to privatize the BBC. The British taxpayer should not be on the hook for garbage.
The Republican Party has no need of Mitt Romney's vote. Bye bye.
Who writes the scripts to which these poor indoctrinated people refer on their phones?
I am a long time DR WHO fan from back in the 1970s. I tried, I really tried to like the first female Doctor…. But I couldn’t! This new story…. May the DOCTOR RIP!
Give them the sea in their tunnels.🔄
Did she say that mostly black people are suffering antisemitic attacks .....
Things aren't "taught" at a PhD level. They are chaperoned lol
Grew up with Doctor Who. So very, very disappointed now. Even tennant can't breathe life back into it.
A Jewish Professor banned !!!! Who would have thunk it !!!!!!
Doctor Who can canonically regenerate into ANY species. The Doctor ends up regenerating into a humanoid form to better connect with those that actually need his help. It's like Avatar rules. He could regenerate as a spoon for all I care, as long as they do Doctory things.
But, pronouns? In Doctor Who? When would the Doctor ever care about pronouns?
as a Doctor Who fan, I was SO HAPPY to see David Tennant's Doctor and Donna again. I mean INSANELY HAPPY, and that woke PC stuff successfully diluted these happy feelings. so I was able to stay calm and keep my pants dry.
The "swamp" is still active
I was made aware of this Dr Who special a few days ago and thought 'Ooh, must watch that'. But I wasn't aware of any of this 'Woke' rubbish until I saw this. Well, I definitely won't be watching it now. It's turned 'Dr Who' into 'Dr No' for me.
I'm so glad I grew up watching Dr Who in the old days. What a great show it was. Another show destroyed by the woke gen.
Donna and Rose: You know nothing. Doctor: Well I know enough not to spill liquids on electronics, twice. I know not to give away 1.6 million pounds. I also know not to frivolously discard time lord powers. After Donna gave away her powers she went back to being a scatterbrain.
I'm beginning to think better of the Doctor's earlier companion Rose. Remember her? The one and only real blonde female companion who helped both Christoper Eccleston and Tennant.
The previous seasons before it went all woke were always the best. I’m actually rewatching some of the classic original Dr. Who because at least it’s better than the woke garbage they’ve been trying to shove down our throats
seriously rose started as a good character who felt alone, ppl make fun of her, having donna supporting her transition...and all of the sudden this introverted character who creates a shack in her home to have her alone time goes all loco for a mispronounced alien while also showing us that her being a trans woman was what saved the day...so many stupid choices in one episode, im so glad the second didnt have rose in it...the second one was sooo good thank god they didnt ruin it
Jason/Rose is a victim of the Tavistock Clinic, surely the Doctor could have sussed that out. Would have made for a more interesting episode.
Being banned from that university should be celebrated! What a bunch of losers😡
Funny how a bloke in a skirt can criticise a man for being a man when he's a man himself!
Doctor Who? Doctor Him/She/Them/It/Mx/Zim/Zur/fae/etc....... more like.
What a disgrace, plus forcing Earth centric assumptions on aliens is a bit xenophobic.
I was so excited about the Tennant & Tate reunion, & their chemistry was still great, but no, it’s gone woke, so woke it’s broke. I won’t be watching again
This makes me so sad. It's been painful to avoid watching it. But from hearing this, I see I made the right choice.
In all fairness, we as Americans ARE in another hemisphere… literally.
Blame the parents who never said NO to them.
Doctor who just became Doctor who cares.
Well done that professor for saying what the 'sane' majority believes.
Cost him his job but gained a lot of respect.
Universities should have ‘Sharia’ month. Let them know what they’re supporting.
These days... I wouldn't sent my kids to a university or even hire anyone who attended one.
the only thing that bothered me really was when Rose/Jason told The Doctor (an alien)off for presuming the pronouns of an alien then The Doctor apologizing for doing it. then saying male presenting i'm surprised they didn't say Cis
Haven't watched the Dr since he changed sex years ago.
0:21 good job for campus for banned that professor..hate speech and calling for killing is wrong in every way possible!!!
You can't fix stupid.
Damn. Sky News Australia doing some solid reporting!
Right? Certainly better than US news outlets.
It's better reporting than the woke Sky News UK
Seeing David Tennant in this s.. is heartbreaking.
Romney is such a moral disgrace. What a poor excuse for a public servant!
The same Mitt who strapped his dog to the roof of his car for a multi state drive.
It's ironic in a way, last season of Dr Who they tried a female version of the Dr, one that likes the ladies. And everyone said quite loudly that this woke crap won't be tolerated. So they get David T. back, and decide unlike they did previously this time we'll teach the little people about how to be a wokelectual.
i left the doctor behind around about the same time he reincarnated as tristan farnon.
i vaguely recall they were still stories about a time traveling alien going on who knows what adventures...
Bloody right! I had the some problem about the "Tristan Farnon" regeneration. I will stick with Tom Baker and the first Three.(I enjoy All Creatures Great and Small though which made the 4th to 5th regeneration such a let down).
We in the UK are forced to pay for this....If we want to watch ANY live TV.
How far the national broadcaster has fallen...Once we called it Auntie...Now its anti-Christian and preaches a very different faith..
now its become "Doctor Who Cares'
Sky News Australia seems so much better than the UK version, at least the presenters can have a laugh and voice their own opinions over there. The UK presenters would be forced to agree with all the wokeism, present the story with a serious and stoic face and not able to step out of line.
Unfortunately this is the only Australian channel that talks anything like this. Australia is just as woke as the UK
@@Jordan-zd2tx No worries, I get you. Not surprised I guess, sad times.

It looks like Dr Who Him They Them ABCD Ze is here to stay.
I didn't think Doctor Who could get any worse. I hope no one watches this crap anymore
Who's going to teach if all teachers are banned.?
The Death Knell of Doctor Who: That occurred with the announcement of the new doctor.
Russell Davis did a lot of good with Doctor Who when it was rebooted back in 2006. I’d never gotten into it as a kid as it just looked too shonky with the fake sets and “Halloween masked” aliens.
It did however jump the shark at the end of Tennant’s time in the role with the specials crowing on repeatedly about how “Obama was going to end the recession” as if it was something that was going to be done by waving a wand.
I called time on the franchise at this point with the exception of the 50th special with the “War Doctor”
... Oh my god, what have they done to Doctor Who???? Why? WHY? FFS, it's awful.
South Park's "The Panderverse," anyone?
I don't think we need worry that much about Dr Who. Beeb has been losing around 250,000 license payers per year for about ten years now. A while ago at a social gathering, a chap next to me opened the polite small talk with "What's on the BBC" - that's the first time that's happened to me in about twenty years. Nobody is watching it, nobody knows, nobody cares.
East Enders spent piles on a set and the numbers are in melt down, Top Gear is being "rested", Lineker (MOTD) has blown all his credit as a footballer for a ridiculous paycheck, any decent talent avoids the Beeb as a graveyard gig so the "talent pool" is a few weirdos and wannabes doing shows that only have any recognition of "who's shagging/divorcing who" from the daily blurbs in the tabloids. Nobody knows who they are except for Lineker. Vorderman, Riley and such-like get their recognition from other issues - "controversies" in the rags. The rest are just taking their knickers off in the centrefolds, no one can name-check a single one of them because they're all washed up 50+ divorcees (again) that never made it in the first place - Denise van Outen, Melinda Messenger - that sort of haddock. Probably. I don't know................... I haven't had the Beeb for about twenty years. It stinks.
Very recently, the Beeb has mailshot half the country with threatening letters about non-payment of the license, apparently unaware that all our TVs now are monitor-USB-everything-else-capable and the Beeb have no idea who's watching, where they are or anything, they haven't the tec to ascertain VPN setups nor have they any right to harass/threaten with TV "bailiffs" door-stepping people. All they know is the money's gone so they want to approach Holly Willoughby - damaged goods - with a huge paycheck. Rylan Clark, Johnny Vegas, Sue Perkins......no talent at all.
Since the Beeb is largely now a forgotten force, most of those letters will go to landfill but effectively they're threatening a few boomers and OAPs - the only audience they have left. The major headache is the young. They don't even think about the Beeb.
But...agreed. Dr Who is poo.
I have never actually watched a single episode of Doctor Who and i doubt i will start doing so now
