God damn peter capaldi is such a gem. To take the time to write to a young fan who didnt want to see him leave. such a class act, such a great doctor and such an amazing man. It was nice of jodie to read his letter like this.

Behind the scenes Chibnall was getting pulled in all directions and Jodie had a busy schedule, so it wasnt down to them. Besides, Chibnall was a "script doctor" on multiple series. They dont get titled over here, but a script doctor literally tightens up the script - not editing it as such, just making it flow or sound more natural. Carrie Fisher was the Script doctor for well over two hundred movies. Yet her resume of films is actually quite small

By the way things turned out with Jodie, poor david had every reason to be concerned.

I am sick of reading how Whittacker was done wrong. It was a great era with some great stories. The Rosa Parks and Demons of the Punjab were brilliant right at the start. Sure some were a bit iffy, Spyfall, the trash Dalek, the first ep of the Flux... but it was far from the majority. I loved her as The Doctor and I loved seeing little girls at cons having an icon to dress up as, and seeing some boys dressing up as her without anyone being bothered. This though, this letter and her reading it is so special. It shows that Capaldi is, as always, perfect. He is the superfan but it also shows that The Doctor is for.life and is a mantle passed on.

I'm actually relieved to see a lot of the fandom come around to the idea that the not so good stuff is coming from the creator and any criticism should be aimed at Chibnall not Whittaker because she did the best she could with what she had.

Never say goodbye it's just, see you around. Doctors don't forget who they were a song is never over, and it continues onwards to the big finish for everyone's favourite doctor like Joddie and Peter, and possibly some old favourites. Let's remember the greatest of each Doctors moments and recall the day we watched it. The power of the doctors is to make us feel we are abroad that tardis with each doctor we have ever seen. Joddie was fantastic and possibly a turning point in Whoinverse history twice. There's been two females who played a male character, Missy the master and Joddie as the doctor, and now there is a black doctor. Some things have inspiring legacies, especially in British television, through science fiction with an old established television series that has lasted 60 years. Each doctor leaves their mark in science fiction history through the changing times and have managed to keep us engaged with the stories throughout those years The letter from a fan was brilliant, a worthy fan, and my guess, possibly in a year or more, this fan will probably appear on Doctor Who?

Gaah. I first started watching the show when Jodie was in nappies. I need to stop thinking, "I MISS HER!" and listen to the text of Peter's letter, which I know is perfectly correct, even if I've been especially taken with her performance. I know Ncuti's gonna be great; he has the spark. But Jodie was an unexpected joy for this jaded old fan.

I absolutely love all the love for Jodie. :) I struggled initially with the casting, because I'm old and anal, but by the time she appeared in the role I was ready for a female Doctor, and there were moments of optimism, but... sadly her era never quite felt 'right' to me. I know Jodie is an amazing actor, so I assume the fault did not lie with her... and as noted below, I hope she has a chance to pick the role up again in the future.

This struck a chord with me, more than any of the unfortunately written monologues she was given on the show.

I really, really liked Whittaker as the doctor 😊 refreshing and fun, though sadly the scripts were often lacking.

I wish Jodie could've done at least one series under another writer

Two great actors who made wonderful doctors but so poorly written. Ncuti's start so far has been amazing and I hope he gets a long run and they have a "the 5 doctors" episode for the 70th anniversary.

This really just drives home just hoe special bodies doctor coulda been if she had better writers to work with, god big finish please do for this woman what you did for Colin's doctor

Wait - I'm reading the video description. Capaldi copyrighted his letter to a fan?!?!?

If somebody writes a letter to somebody else it automatically becomes their copyright. You could write to a friend or relative and you would have the copyright of your words. Unlike things like songs that need legal copyright. Of course if your letter included a poem or a quote that section would already be copyright of the original writer.

@@istisel One of the reasons Tennant was brought back was because there was no doctor available. Not only had Jodie already filmed her exit, she was also very heavily pregnant when they would've filmed the 60th so would've been unable to film. And Ncuti was busy filming Barbie.

This reminds me of The Simpson’s photo of Sean Connery signed by Roger Moore.

JW might have become a good Doctor if she had been given decent writing. As bad as Chibnall was the second coming of RTD promises to be much wore.

Jodie was good (too bad the same can't be said for the writing). Tennant has always been my fave. The writing became disappointing after that. I haven't made it through a whole season since then.

I never watched her Doctor, and from what I've seen I'm glad I didn't, however with that said I don't hate Jodie and I really hope her career doesn't get screwed because of the crappy writing and fan backlash from Doctor Who. I've seen her in a few other things and I like her otherwise. I just couldn't get into her Doctor, nor the major changes they made to the established Canon during her run.

I don't know if Ryan K Johnson is still around, but if the BBC ever tries another female Doctor, they should reach out to him to work with the writers. He did a few fan films back in the 80s or 90s starring a female Doctor and I always found they fit in well with the Doctor Who Universe. I'm also still holding out hope we get to see a Helena Bonham Carter Rani. :)

Wait--you couldn't get into her Doctor, but you never watched it? Of course you couldn't get into it--you never even tried! I've just been watching some of her episodes today for the first time, and I agree that the writing is pretty weak, but at least I can say that after ACTUALLY WATCHING before making up my mind. 😑

Good, but mainly kind actor, but bad writer

Jodie deserved a darker take on her run. If she was like Missy, her doctor would’ve been perfect as the regeneration was inspired by her. A better/more professional costume and larger TARDIS too. Her first costume was better than the final result as it felt Doctor-y. An episode like Midnight would’ve been perfect for a turn around

I thought Jodie did a great job as the Doctor! She had bad writers! Wish she could have stayed for some RTD stories.

I like Jodie as an actress but unfortunately she wasn’t the doctor in my eyes, hopefully she gets some big finish to maybe expand her character better

She stated with pride that she wasn't a fan, didn't really watch any of the show before getting the part and didn't think it would be beneficial too as she was the first female Doctor Who. This showed through the failure that was her tenure. As for the writing, with the same staff, Peter Capaldi managed to be a wonderful Dr Who and despite the decline of the shows ratings and the instillation of Gender Politics and things such as Disabled people can't be evil so Davros can only be white and evil, not white, a wheelchair user and an evil mastermind because....? Capaldi has remained silent and respectful, despite the shift from story telling to telling the viewers off. Unfortunately, being a Male presenting Male Dr Who fan I have been told by the show I am less than half the population solely because I'm not a woman. Despite my education, despite my work, experience, life skills and confidence supported by results and evidence. Despite my moral base, genuine wish to be kind, I am as the show is comfortable in stating clearly. I am a man thus I am incapable of understanding the show, the plot and the explanations for the lie we were fed for 50 years about the origin of Dr Who. I am incapable of understanding why repeatedly murdering children to learn how to become immortal makes Dr Who a, good person. I mean it's a relief that as a man I don't understand how murdering children is good? I feel that transitioning to a woman and being able to both justify and support this would make me less of a good person. Did she get a tough time? Yes Did she deserve it? Yes Was it because she is a woman? No (I was genuinely excited and left ostracised for my existence as a man and a Whovian) Dr Who chose to claim the majority of its audience were toxic and by birth inferior. Then blame those it attacked for not watching the show any more, while continuing to persecute those that did not fit their beliefs. Capaldi was replaced by a Whittaker, not because it was his time, because he wasn't a woman. To send the message through plot, themes, plain statements and public statements to defend the lack of viewers. That all of the male children are inferior, are toxic and the main reason why a female Dr Who failed is wholly disgusting, dangerous, a lie and to suggest that by birth, a man is inferior to a woman is exactly the same as stating a White Woman is superior to a Black Woman simply by birth. It is wrong, unethical, dangerous and if your response is "Yeah but" remember that when they came for you, because you didn't stand up. There was no one to stand up for you!
