Review "The Doctor" or "Doctor Who"?

"The Doctor" or "Doctor Who"?






Moffat knows the answer......

The outgoing writer and executive producer also cleared up the issue of whether the character's name is Doctor Who or the Doctor.

"There isn't any doubt about it, I'm sorry," Moffat said. "It was established in The War Machines (episode) that his name is Doctor Who."

He provided evidence to back up his point, including signing letters "Doctor W" and the third Doctor having a "Who" licence plate.

"He doesn't often call himself Doctor Who because it's a bloody stupid name," Moffat added.

I suppose that something like the above scene is one that maybe needed writing.

But I just wish a more talented writer had written it.

As it is, to me it is just the usual smart-arsed glibness that kind of takes the mickey out of the programme's classic legacy, without actually contributing anything profound or being genuinely clever in any way.

As always.

The Target books were never always certain either.....

Given that the information comes from The Master, my automatic assumption is to disbelieve it.
