I was on a different forum, and once I got past the numerous "The show is ruined" posts, once particular hot take I saw was that she shouldn't have been cast because Chibs had worked with her before, and that the BBC should've have made him cast someone else.

With no 2 parters, I'm sure they'll do the thing where the ep will end on a cliffhanger, but the following story will have a different plot

I can see the Rosa Parks episode working if they play it as it's a fixed point in history that someone's trying to disrupt to change history, and The Doctor and her friends are running around in the background to make sure the plans fail with any of the principal characters (Rosa, etc) knowing that they are there.

But they probably won't do that.

This fan film recreation of Power of the Daleks (with Lisa Bowerman and Barnaby Edwards) uses the new series Daleks, but has them colored gray and blue:

I clicked on one of the links in Burkion's post and now YouTube recommends I watch a video entitled "Doctor Who Season 11 Rotten Tomatoes score: The Whovians Have Spoken". The thumbnail is a bearded guy sitting in a room which is literally full of toys.

Now, if I click on this, am I going to get nothing but some bloke whinging about Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson's Chris Chibnal's SJW agenda? More to the point, do I really need to ask that question?

Yes. I saw one recommendation that was something like how S11 has the worst ratings ever because it's "too PC".

So, Mel might be back? On the radio this morning, they mentioned something about Bonnie Langford returning to Who, and I assume they don’t mean Big Finish because she’s been doing that for 20 years.

I wonder if we’re getting a female companion tour de force.

I saw a tweet this morning where apparently Bonnie was talking about Big Finish; it just got jumbled up in the reporting

If it's true, it'll be interesting to see what the revamped Big Finish covers will look like. Will they go back to the Black Bar covers? Will they use the stacked one (which they kind of do already for the reverse Fourth Doctor covers)? Or the horizontal?

I go back and forth on if I like the line, but it very much fit his Doctor. Most of the time the Doctor accepts regeneration gracefully, but 10 actively talked about seeing it as death.

Despite the people who dislike it, there are plenty who love it and get very emotional over it. Went to the Doctor Who orchestral concert thing a decade back, and there were a bunch of audience members openly crying at that scene playing out.

I liked Tennant's last line, because other than Two (who was basically being executed), Six (who, along with Mel, was unconscious at the time), and Seven (who was being murdered operated on in the ER), all the other regenerations were about the Doctor trying to reassure the companions who were with him that everything was going to be all right ("A tear, Sarah Jane?", "It's the end, but the moment has been prepared for.") This was him, alone, and it felt like we really got to see what his feelings towards regeneration were. And he didn't want to do it. It's not comforting to him to change. To become a new person. To him, it's not all right. He's going away, and he's never coming back. And it's the last thing he ever wants.
