Well this is nicely balanced I wonder what the daily mail comments section is saying 
No tits in the Tardis says Harry Jones of Waltham Abbey. Harry who lives in a £250,000 pound flat said "it's taken feminism too far what next a discussion about whether to wear pads or Tampons when she fights Davros. The BBC have let real fans down with this decisionMr GrimNasty said:

It's still a children's show, get a grip people 
Tell the BBC, it's them that's programming our children by ramming PC attitudes down their throats - in supposedly light entertainment.Did you not notice all the blunderbuss subtlety of the PC messages in the last series - is a children's program really a suitable platform?
BBC news reporter just justified recasting lead as a woman by saying "the BBC having firmly committed itself to diversity".
Actress said "as a feminist".
Anyone still care to say it's not about being PC?

Political correctness gone mad at the BBC again, whoever she is
They can't help themselves can they. They're trying to shape the nation you know.Absolutely nothing against women, love 'em to bits, but this is a pathetic example of pandering to the wet ass liberal PC mindset that is overwhelming this country. And so, so predictable.

I think once we'd discovered that the Master was a fifty year old Scottish woman it was pretty much inevitable. Who really cares? She'll either make a good doctor or a bad one; the male incumbents have hardly been universally successful ( McCoy I'm looking at you..)
Lets us see...
MsCoy was a fabulous fit for Doctor Who.Lets us see...
His writers however were atrocious!!

Its more an attempt at creating interest in an almost dead format and I reckon it might just work!Absolutely nothing against women, love 'em to bits, but this is a pathetic example of pandering to the wet ass liberal PC mindset that is overwhelming this country. And so, so predictable.

I lost interest in Dr Who around the back end of David Tennant's time as the Dr but this has sparked my interest again.
Same here. 
The thing that is unique about Doctor Who is the ability to regenerate, and it's been perfectly within canon for The Doctor to have different age, looks, accent, height, etc. I don't see that their gender is any different to that and is merely an extension of same.
I'm really not sure why so many Whovians have their knickers in a knot over this.

I thought Matt Smith was dreadful but as it moved on I started to actually liked his performance. Sorry but Peter's version just did not work for me whatsoever as much as I tried to like him.Slightly disappointed that it's now a woman but lets see how it goes. What I think is a real shame more than anything else is the reveal should be within the show itself and this spoils it for me.
Still waiting for Lenny Henry to pop up and moan about a missed opportunity.
