Thoughts on Jodie Whittaker

I think she’s fine, not my favourite, but nonetheless a great ambassador for the show and a strong actress.

It’s such a shame that from beginning to end she has been saddled with inconsistent scripts. There are a few, a select few, that are top-tier stuff, a few, a select few that are truly bad and a majority made up of middling dreck.

I don’t think she ever got a defining episode like the other modern Doctors. I’m thinking the likes of Dalek, Midnight, The Big Bang or Heaven Sent. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t think the regeneration story is going to be the one.

But then in my opinion Davison had to wait until his regeneration story before he really got the script he deserved. So it could still happen.

I like the bit in The Haunting of Villa Diodati where she abandoned all pretence of the 'fam' and just flat out stated there's a hierarchy and she was in charge and ultimately their opinion counts for shit.
 
It’s the one with Mary Shelley and a Cyberman?

Yeah it was a good one. I think still the best for me was It Takes You Away from Series 11.
