Doctor Who and the New Doctor: Odds Now are Placing Tilda Swinton as Leader

February 16, 2017

google.com, pub-ca-pub-6067120031842370, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0 Tilda Swinton Wow, Tilda Swinton gets the best odds to be the next Doctor.(1) Alright, these odds makers did not take anytime in saying the next Doctor is going to be a female. They must feel very strongly about this. This comes as no surprise though. I say this because Steven Moffat changes the Master’s gender and now everyone is expecting the same for the Doctor. I know there some other things which we see with…

The Doctor’s WIfe River Song: Should She Have Made Her Last Apperance

The Doctor’s Wife The Doctor’s Wife, River Song, burst on the scene in Silence in the Library. The Doctor at the time only finds out that she is from his future. She is a character from the mind of Steven Moffat which became a very interesting part of Doctor Who. As a result, she returns for another fifteen episodes. Therefore she sees the Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Doctors. She is a character that I grew fond of over the last…

Loving the Doctor Loving the Doctor for me is not hard. I have been a sci-fi fan for as long as I can remember. As a result, when I first see Doctor Who, I fall in love with the show. I know that I am only 9 or 10 years of age when I catch it for the first time. But this does not stop me from loving the Doctor from the beginning. When I begin watching the program, Tom…

Third Doctor Well, Third Doctor is the one who saves the program from being cancelled. You may ask the question why do I say that. Well, Troughton finds it hard to work so much with as the Doctor and chooses to leave the program. At the same time the budgets strains are pushing the BBC to cancel this great TV program. As a result, Sherwin and others decide to move the program to having just adventures on Earth. They do…

Leaving: Thoughts on the Actor and the BBC Revealing He is Leaving Doctor Who

Leaving Leaving Doctor Who is a big deal. This seems to be the norm with Doctor Who. What I mean is the companions leave and eventually the Doctor regenerates. As a result, this means the acteor is leaving the role. The other day I am reading the comments on a Facebook post about Peter Capaldi announcing his leaving Doctor Who. Because of him revealing his leaving before Season 10 starts some of the fans are upset. Ok, I can see…

Troughton Becomes the Second Doctor: History of Doctor Who Part 3

Troughton: The Second Doctor The idea of a Second Doctor is really an innovation by Lloyd and story editor Gerry Davis. If I am the showrunner at this point, I am trying to find a way to keep the program going. The show is only three seasons old and the original actor is not able to carry on. William Hartnell’s battle with his health is very evident to Lloyd and Davis. So, they must figure out what to do. From…

The Ice Warriors; A Menace Which Only the Doctor Would Face

The Ice Warriors Doctor Who is probably the only sci-fi show where you will see an enemy like the Ice Warriors. This enemy from my reading is from the planet Mars. The Doctor finds them when he lands on Earth during a new Ice Age in the 1967 episode The Ice Warriors. This is one of the episodes in which the BBC destroys parts of the complete story. Two of the episodes are missing, but the good thing is that the story…

Past Doctors Speculation began when Peter Capaldi tells the world he is leaving Doctor Who after this year’s Christmas Special. Now even past doctors are getting in on the act. David Tennant and Paul McGann have made their choice for the next Doctor. I realize that twenty or thirty years ago what David Tennant suggest is not a possibility. But in this day I can see it taking place. All we have to do is look at what Steven Moffat…

Next Doctor The BBC wants a new era and that is exactly what they will get. Peter Capaldi steps down after the 2017 Christmas Special and now we wonder who the next Doctor will be? This is job for the media and fans both. Apparently the media is already putting odds on who will be the next Doctor. As a result, it seems to becoming something to bet on. I personally don’t know and neither do they. But they want…

Death The death of the main character in Doctor Who is something which I can never get use to. Because it seems every time I get use to a Doctor, he choses to leave. I never really find out what he is all about. Therefore, I wish the actors would stay longer. I don’t want to speculate as to why these guys leave. They are all great actors and I love to watch them. Many if not all but one…
