      Quarries and alleys and occasionally a warehouse if you managed to get some decent money thrown your way. All you need.

    What, you’re telling me they’re NOT looking for the best pitch for how to retcon everything after 12 or even just the Timeless Child? Heavens.

    🕶️

    I’m not in favour of retconning anything, least of all “everything after 12”, that’s just what Certain People are yelling for very loudly and I’d assume he’s referencing.

      I haven’t really watched since 12s first season, loved Capaldi and Coleman just didn’t like the writing. Why are people clamoring for it? Hoping not just because 13 & 14 were a woman and a black man respectively

          Ugh I fucking hate that, like I said I never saw Jodi or Ncuti other than a few clips here and there and they both seemed great. The Doctor would be disappointed

            The writing had issues but Jodie and Ncuti are not to blame.

            BTW, Ncuti was 15, not 14. We had a special guest star as 14 in the 60th anniversary, an up-and-coming actor called David Tennant ;D

              Fuck, you right I saw David came back in a press release, for some reason I thought that was after Ncuti, a spite rewatch starting with 9 may be in order now

    So what he’s saying is, the showrunners aren’t listening to the fans.

    Why are so many fucking moronic losers in charge of so many things?!
