Context (warning: it’s the Express):

BBC fans have been left divided over the new series of Doctor Who, with some loyal viewers branding the show as “woke” and “unwatchable.” The 14th season of the long-running fantasy series returned to our screens this month.

Following its return, fans watching at home have reacted online to the new series. One person slammed: “After the cast and crew told the old #DoctorWho fans to stop watching in favour of the ‘modern audience’, the current season’s 2-episode premiere received the lowest overnight ratings in the show’s HISTORY!!! #RIPDoctorWho.”

A second person chimed in: “#RIPDoctorWho Wow. Well Dr Who is totally unwatchable now. Maybe have a Dr Who series again instead of a platform for gender politics and radical left wing ideology? Go woke go broke.”

A third person also commented on X: “The Maestro was probably one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. No exaggeration. #RIPDoctorWho.”

    Honestly that’s the only offensive part of this production. You don’t get to pull “season one” out of your ass, fourteen years into the reboot of a show that’s sixty years old.
