The History of Doctor Who Part 6: The John Nathan-Turner Era

March 26, 2017

google.com, pub-ca-pub-6067120031842370, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0 John Nathan-Turner is not the first man to get the offer to run Doctor Who. Graeme MacDonald will first offer the position to George Gallaccio, John Nathan predecessor. He apparently works on Doctor Who sometime before this. Because Gallaccio turns down MacDonald, John Nathan-Turner is gets the offer to run Doctor Who. Maybe for John Nathan-Turner this is a dream job. I do not personally know that it is. But he is the unit production manager at…

Fan’s View A fan’s view is all this is and all it will be. Therefore, some may agree with it then others may not. So, here we go and this is how I truly feel about this next Doctor thing. As a fan of the show, I always like surprises. With that being said, I know first of all that a regeneration is coming. I know this because Peter Capaldi tells the world in an interview he will not return…

Uproar Uproar may not be the right word for the response of some Doctor Who fans. There is so much talk about the next Doctor being a female, but there are still those who do not want that. From the standpoint of many fans this will be wrong. I wrote about Chris Chibnall not wanting to do anything gimmicky. Now, the idea of a female Doctor can sound like a gimmick. I can also see where those who are pro-female…

Steven Moffat Well, how about this turn of events? Steven Moffat is leaving Doctor Who, which everyone knows by now. Everyone now knows that Peter Capaldi is leaving as well. Therefore, I am thinking that Steven Moffat wants to go out with a bang. I read yesterday about the return of the Mondasian Cybermen and I believe another old school villain will return this year. From everything I can gain from articles the Ice Warriors will return this year as…

Mondasian Cybermen Mondasian Cybermen will return in the last two episodes of Season 10 per Doctor Who News.(1) Now to see the first ones you must see the serial “The Tenth Planet”. As a result, you will also see the first time the main character the Doctor regenerates at the end. I have only see pictures like the one above as to what they actually look like. To tell you the truth, they are for certain different from anything we see…

Three Contenders Three contenders have emerged from many different actors ad actresses. The bookies are making odds as I write this and they are changing everyday. Some of the names they are making the odds for are unknown to me. I am not really all that familiar with any of them. This is rather strange to me, because I just did not see people placing bets on the next Doctor. I know that people bet on horse races, dog races,…

Persuade To persuade an actor from leaving Doctor Who may be difficult. In my opinion, Capaldi should have stayed as the Doctor for at least one more year. But once he makes up his mind, there isn’t any turning back. Everyone is always sad when an actor chooses to leave the role of the Doctor. I can say I am both sad and maybe a little upset. In the process of thins, Chris Chibnall and Steven Moffat try to persuade…

Chris Chibnall Chris Chibnall the new showrunner for Doctor Who has his own opinion on a female Doctor. I can say that as far his point of view on the subject. I do stand with him. He makes it clear there isn’t anything ruled out. But at the same time he is not going to do something as a gimmick.(1) There is truth to this. When casting for such an iconic television show, it does not need gimmicks to make it…

Ratings Ratings are something the Television industry counts on. From what I have read over the past few months, Doctor Who’s ratings and viewership is not what the BBC wants. The BBC has for the tenth season now released a second trailer. I personally can’t remember them doing this for the past two seasons, This is the case for even those before this one. I realize this is the final season for both Steven Moffat and Peter Capaldi. Since they…
