I have no idea but I noticed it had a blind actress (are you allowed to call them actresses these days or does that imply a gender?)
I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to call anyone 'them' any more. Other peple have a right not to be given a name that implies they are different to you. The correct term is "One of us. But not me, or you, in this instance."
I have not and will not watch this version of the show imposed upon us. Been a fan for years (although wavered in the Bonnie Langford era) and had been enjoying the re-boot, but it's just BBC lefty divesrity equallity inclusive sheeite.
Dr Who. 1963-2017. RIP.
OK so I am only one person, but there must be more like me, and reading the comments there are.
On the plus side I have started watching the on-line episodes again. Twice upon a Time was a great episode -apart from the final scenes...

Third one I've quite enjoyed. The atmosphere and mystery worked, Jodie consistently good and working as the Doctor, not a classic but certainly as good as any other mid season story we've seen.
There are still things I want them to fix - too much sonic and not enough actual deduction - the 'oh yes, I've just remembered something from my childhood - it must be that' was a bit of a leap, and it still feels like a squeeze to get all three companions into an episode. After the promises of a 'writers room' approach, it still feels like the stories are individual efforts, with not quite enough 'fit and finish' to tie up the loose ends.
But I can't be angry with it. That story worked - yes, even the frog - and most of our family watched it, with the exception of our daughter who's a little scared of it. Just as it's meant to be

Somebody with better lugholes than me needs to confirm if that was Davros's voice in the 'next time' clip.
They wouldn't re-use the same character again, he's only been used about 37 times in the last ten years.
This hasn't gone unnoticed on the fan fiction forums.They wouldn't re-use the same character again, he's only been used about 37 times in the last ten years.
Betty Marshall who contributes a lot of the Doctor in the Kitchen stories thinks it could have been. There again she writes the Doctor as a vegan character so she isn't considered in as much esteem as some others
Its certainly an interesting point and one that I will report back on

Using the word 'them' to refer to actors and actresses collectively; they are different to me because I can't act.
