Dont know who he is but cant imagine he is any worse then Whittaker who was pretty terrible IMO

Also hopefully they have better cast of companions as her group was pretty terrible as well

will the overshadow the new guy?

He was great as Eric in Sex Education IMO, but I hope they're not thinking they can just transplant that character's mannerisms over to the Doctor Who universe and call it a day. Having to carry a show is a very different challenge and it'll be clear pretty quick if he is able to pull that off. Maybe that's why Tennant is around, a Plan B if you will.

It's one off for the 60th anniversary.

Well, that is mediocre casting

His turn as Villan in Matrix recently was cringe inducing

NPH is really not all that good an actor IMO

A young, fun, high energy Doctor is likely exactly what the show needs right now to get it out of something of a rut (no fault of Whittaker). Looking forward to the new season

Well.... this kind of changed a little

No, it was announced right after the last episode.

Well that was fun. One of the best finales to a Doctor. Nice touch by having The Master play the theme from Outlander on the flute. Sucks that we have to wait a year for the three episodes with Tennant & Tate:

For some strange reason here on the UK different outlets report different things

You mean, starting today.

After 3 good specials from Tennant; Gatwa comes in and makes a strong start imo. Best chemistry between the two since Matt Smith/Karen Gillan.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Good start

 

[dma0034]

The villian in the 3rd episode looks like a Sanderson Sister from Hocus Pocus lol. So far the writing has been poor imo. I think the actors have been pretty good so far

 

[Jack Straw]

I really liked "73 Yards". Felt like a proper Doctor Who episode, suitably creepy. Definitely getting some "Impossible Girl" type vibes from Ruby.
