You have a point.

It's Doctor Who. Been f***ed for decades now. And this is a BBC that boasts when it loses listeners. Personally, I hope it becomes even more woke. One of the best recruiters the Right could hope for.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." - 1984 - George Orwell.

So by commenting on wokeism I become as bad.

You will have to explain that logic, preferably after you have spent a few moments considering just how daft that statement is. .

It's not really that he is black or gay that is the issue.

It is that someone at the BBC purposefully planned to employ this person in a noteworthy role specifically because they were Black and gay.

We know that Russell T Davis likes to shoe horn in as many gay moments as possible and this sometimes works to good effect as with Touchwood. However, this show should not be about wokeism or sexuality, but rather a kid's introduction to Sci Fi that grown ups can enjoy at the same time.

Sadly, the minority brigade at the BBC have taken over and now see it as their mission in life to 'educate' the population in a way that only the most arrogant blinkered egotists could imagine would be appropriate.

As if the Daleks weren't evil enough they'll go to a new level of badness in the next series when they refuse to take the knee before The Doctor.

Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

What would you say if i used this is the producers way of moving Dr Who onto to new viewers and the worlds changed?

I would say the viewing figures will answer your question. If they go up and stay up then Russell Davies got it right.

I am no longer the target audience due to my age but I think Doctor Who forgot it's a kids show.

Still no point arguing the numbers don't lie so I guess we shall see. However it will be a tough job to turn around a show that has been in decline for 10 years.

One more point

That's two gay Doctors on the trot...is that really coincidental?...apparently the gay percent in the country is under five percent. If it isn't ideological I don't have an issue with an actor's sexuality though you notice that the Davies fella is also part of that five percent.

As a percent it's probably more a reflection of the entertainment industry and definitely the BBC itself.

'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.' (Leslie Nielsen)

Of course it's ideological. You know your Gramsci. This is the point. The march through the institutions.

Bring it on I say. The BBC should be encouraged to think it can still pull this kind of stunt. It clearly believes that the calls for the abolishing of the licence fee are all froth and as such, wants to rub our noses in its Soc.Lib dogma.

And little by little, swells the ranks of those who would happily pay for it to be abolished. Coming to the conclusion that in the same way UKIP then the Brexit Party pushed the notion of us leaving the EU, then the same needs to be done with the Beeb. A single issue political movement that can build up enough of a head of steam to dictate political change.

Let's hope that the next Dr is not only non-white and homosexual but ideally Trans with it and in a wheelchair. A Sci-fi version of 'Ironside'.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." - 1984 - George Orwell.

I believe Muhammad Ali espoused this in several mainstream interviews, still available on YouTube. He also frequently implored 'Black People' to, and I quote, "Do for self, clean up our own neighbourhoods" etc. etc.

Just thought I'd mention, love watching Ali's old tapes and have noticed this on several occasions!

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

'Ironbutt' more like.

You always think they are going too far but this is the doctrine of the elites. Look at the Tories.....there's no Thatcher there saying 'no'.....like immigration the pushback against these things is half hearted and only for the base. Their new Tories that they select for their seats are mostly progressives who are only conservative in the fiscal sense.

There are white pills but in my view that is for the next generation of elites.....we are men among the ruins where practically all the elites think the same thing....like our two party system, just the same in most senses. ....if the natural order is to re-emerge it will be the next generation, who with a split in the elites to back them will rise from the ashes.
