Perry Jones

Wooden, muddled twoddle. Branagh particularly didn’t seem to have his heart in it. Not a patch of his Orient Express portrayal

Casting is entirely unconvincing. Brilliant CGI, but I won’t be watching past episode one

I don’t understand why there aren’t street riots protesting the travesty that is the latest the latest Doctor Who series. We have been lulled into a false sense of security by the successive quality of the portrayals of Messrs Eccleston, Tennant and Smith. They have been supported by some inspired companions, but Peter Capaldi was a let down only saved by the brilliant casting of Jenna Colemsn as Clara Oswald and that characters back history with the Doctor. Now we have multiple weak and politically correct companions propping up Whittaker’s very feeble Doctor. Are we really to believe this is an incarnation of a person who was singlehandedly responsible for the Genocide of the Daleks??? An entity feared as much as loved across much of space and time. What we now have is weak storylines and Whittaker is gifted a character full of whimsy and bereft of potential and menace Come back Steve Moffat! I have watched Doctor Who since I hid behind the sofa for the first ever episode. Sadly no more,
