Former Member Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 The Twelfth Doctor is kind of off-putting. Not annoying like the Sixth or Seventh Doctors, but not as easy to like as most of the other Doctors. I don’t now if I’ll be able to get used to him. But at least I know there’s a new Doctor on the way – even if mysogynistic fanboys hate the idea of a female Doctor! ;-)
Wesley8890 Posted December 4, 2017 Author Posted December 4, 2017 Yeah that doctor is hard to get used to. Bit of trivia the Doctor was not the first character Peter Capaldi portrayed on the show. During Donna Nobles companion run they traveled to Pompeii before Vesuvius erupted. While there they run into Lobus Caecilius. Here's the link to the page http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Lobus_Caecilius 1
Former Member Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 They didn’t use that explanation when the very annoying Sixth Doctor appeared after the actor had previously played a different character during the Fifth Doctor’s term.
Wesley8890 Posted December 4, 2017 Author Posted December 4, 2017 No they didn't, but then again back then they probably didn't think anyone would notice. Unlike today where you say hmm he looks familiar I'll ask Google

He was annoying in either iteration! ;-)

comicfan Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) Anyway, you never forget your first, which was Baker for me. (God, I'm old and I still want his scarf!) Of the reboot I love Tennant and Smith for different reasons. They both brought such a richness to the Doctor. As for the original companion - Sarah Jane. Modern Companion - Amy/ Rory because they gave the audience the incredible River Song. I also love the impossible girl Clara Osborn. I really hated Rose, but Donna I mostly felt sorry for. As for Captain Jack, I see him as more of a guest star, since he starred in torchwood. (In Love with Jack) I'm probably going to catch hell here, but I like Capaldi. I feel he was just hitting his stride when his turn ended. Unlike some I can't wait for the new series and the 13th Doctor. Edited February 19, 2018 by comicfan 1

Honestly, I think it's more of the fact they tried to make the show too much about her. Look at the introduction for the seasons she was on. The show is called Doctor Who not Amy Bitchface Pond

I think we can all agree Martha Jones was useless she bare!y did anything. 1

Clara was alright, a little too peppy for me she was to happy go lucky, whereas Amy was kind of a stick in the mud I still prefer her. Seriously though did Martha do anything worth mentioning? K9 was more useful than her! 1
Former Member Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 What is the job of the Companion? To excite adolescent young men? To scream, run, and be the viewer’s surrogate? To pretend to be a junior Time Lord? To feed your sexual fantasies? As a Gay man, I was attracted to Rory and Turlough (but hated Turlough’s personality). I also liked Adric, but I was’t attracted to him – his pajama outfit was embarrassing too! Oh, and Cap’n Jack! (The latter two were portrayed by Gay men.)

Former Member Posted November 23, 2019 Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) I noticed this 8.5” tree topper on Amazon: Naturally, you can also get other Dr Who ornaments including Tardises, Daleks, and several of the Doctors. Alternative tree toppers include a Tardis or a Star Wars Death Star. ;–) Edited November 23, 2019 by Former Member
