The Vault Report - seen each week on Whovians
Awesome season finale and great Whovians episode tonight.
The 13th Doctor will be revealed Monday morning our time.
It will be very interesting to see how fans react to the choice of a female Doctor Who.
And thereās a Doctor Who connection with Jodie Whittaker having starred alongside previous Doctor Who star David Tennant in Broadchurch.
Lots of mixed reactions on social media.
Good choice.
The only reaction Iāve seen is from hyperventilating liberal Brits squawking the entire day about how āracist, sexist white malesā are going to go crazy about it and stop watching.
Apart from that, not much of a āmixture of reactionsā apart from people rolling their eyes / scrolling past this mundane news. In any case, what will be delicious is this week the BBC being forced, through new legislation, to disclose the salaries of employees earning more than Ā£150,000 - the āBBC gender pay gapā will make for interesting reading - already theyāve been briefing about how theyāre much better, supposedly, than many other media organisations (ā¦that donāt have mandatory disclosure and thus the BBC wouldnāt even know about ).
Iām seeing males and females declaring theyāll never watch it again and that this has āruinedā the show. And the opposing reactions to those reactionsā¦
I understand the show has passionate fans but I donāt really see the point though in being outraged that theyāve got a woman in the role now.
Never really been a Doctor Who fan, I canāt stand sci fi, but Iād probably watch her debut just out of curiosity.
Apparently regenerating timelords canāt have vaginas now.
We already knew they could because Missy has been the regeneration of The Master for the past few years.
Itās exciting news, I canāt wait to see how she goes. The next thing Iām wondering is will we have a male or female companion?
I love this announcement, Iām so hyped!. And Iām also playing a game of bingo for the triggered peopleās comments.
Off topic but i reckon bring on a male Wonder Woman only because heād bring the sassy comments with him
Nominate someone with manboobs and you can please everyone
There already is a Wonder Man in the comic book world. Have no idea if he makes sassy comments. Maybe there could be a Sassy Man.
Perhaps, youād have to be actively seeking out and trawling some pretty kooky parts of the internet to find people like that though. I certainly havenāt seen any.
The only indication of public reaction to this sort of news Iāve seen is from a YouGov survey a while back, showing that the introduction of a female Doctor had a larger negative response from women than menā¦thatās not to say people particularly care, just their reaction when surveyed.
It seems people are more triggered by the POTENTIAL for some people to be ātriggeredā than are actually triggeredā¦LOL. Is there a bingo square for that?
No, just what comes up in my normal everyday Twitter feed. Iāve not had to go āseeking out and trawling some kooky parts of the internetā.
As I said I have seen comments from both sides of the Doctor Who outrage spectrum.
