Doctor Who’s Billie Piper thinks Rose would still be in love with the female Doctor
“Jodie’s a babe,” the actress has said


It’s fair to say that the casting of Jodie Whittaker in Doctor Who will mark a major sea change for the BBC sci-fi series, with the Broadchurch star’s portrayal of the first female incarnation of the regenerating Time Lord ripe for all sorts of different dynamics when she takes over the series this Christmas.

However, former star Billie Piper has now revealed one thing that definitely WON’T change when the Doctor switches gender – the feelings of her character Rose Tyler, who will carry on loving the Doctor (who she travelled with in his Ninth and Tenth incarnations) despite the alteration.

JODIE:
You said I'd be a success, you lying bastard! Look at my ratings! They're shit! All the fans hate me! God, I hate this show!

CHIBNALL: Calm down, Jodie! Everything's going to be fine! I've had an idea to boost the ratings!

JODIE: (Putting on her best scronch-nose-face.) Another one?!? This had better be good!

CHIBNALL: It is! A boy band!!

Why’s Jimmy wearing horns?

Never heard of BTS but they sure are popular, judging by the audience reaction. I wonder if they’ll play themselves.

At the risk of sounding out of touch, who or what is BTS? :emoji_confused:

And are you seriously trying to tell me that the best ever, fantastically popular, female incarnation of the Doctor... needs a whole group of males to help save her from ratings oblivion? :emoji_imp:

PS - I think my laughter just woke up the neighbours... :emoji_laughing:

There is to be an episode about "Nora Baker", Britain's first Muslim war heroine......

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noor_Inayat_Khan


Noor-un-Nisa Inayat Khan, GC (1 January 1914 – 13 September 1944), aka Nora Inayat-Khan, was a British heroine of World War II renowned for her service in the Special Operations Executive.[1]

She also went by the name Nora Baker and was a published author[2] of Indian and American descent who was posthumously awarded the George Cross for her service in the SOE, the highest civilian decoration in the UK.[1] As an SOE agent she became the first female wireless operator to be sent from Britain into occupied France to aid the French Resistance during World War II, and was Britain's first Muslim war heroine.[1]

A story featuring plastic waste seems like the perfect vehicle for another Auton adventure...

So obviously it won't be that.

Yes, it will take a topical issue and tell it in the dullest, least dramatic, least fun, most preachy and disappointing way possible, while missing an obvious trick like the Autons.

But at least we have the Troughton-like towering brilliance and genius of a charismatic central lead performer to prop up even the weakest of stories.

Oh no, wait a moment, Capaldi's gone, hasn't he! :emoji_head_bandage:

Latest Series 12 mutterings are......

.... that Jodie's Doctor will be meeting Mary Shelley - and that
the Cybermen are involved, with fans speculating that Mary will be inspired to write Frankenstein, based on her experiences with the Cybermen... or something.

... and there is the following claim on Mondas, which has yet to back it up with any sources, so could be a load of rubbish.......



Couple of extra rumous making more noise

-Jodie is leaving, but they're keeping it very low-key until the time is right to announce it publicly. Regeneration has apparently already been filmed early so they can get on with the rest of it.

-Christmas special may or may not have been axed by the Beeb.
