Tonight we say farewell to Jodie Whittaker who played the 13th Doctor in the iconic British sci-fi show “Doctor Who”. She was also the first woman to play the role. I loved her performances and I wish she could stick around another season or two. But this show is built on change and the next Doctor will be Ncuti Gatwa who will be the first person of colour to play the role.
Today is the debut of the 13th Doctor in the long-running science fiction show “Doctor Who’ Jodie Whittaker assumes the role as the first woman to do so. Every time there is a new person playing this iconic role we wonder what they will be like and what they will do. I believe with Whittaker who is a great actress she will make The Doctor her own and treat the role and the institution with reverence and respect. She will be brilliant!
This is Jodie Whittaker who is now the 13th Doctor of the long-running British sci-fi series Doctor Who. Jodie is making history as the first woman to play this iconic role.
Thank you Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat for what you brought to Doctor Who.
Nothing is sad until it’s over – The Doctor from Doctor Who
Season 9 of Doctor Who concludes tonight and much has happened with The Doctor. Clara Oswald passed away is the big happening this season along with some great adventures. There is also this hybrid thing that has come into play. He returns to Gallifrey for the finale which is going to be a great story. It just seems the season started but Doctor Who like other British series have short seasons. Let’s see what happens tonight and leading up to the Christmas special with River Song!
In anticipation of the upcoming season of “Doctor Who” The 12th Doctor played by Peter Capaldi and Clara Oswald played by Jenna Coleman. Can’t wait til September.
