The return of Russell T Davies to Doctor Who got us wondering how much of his comeback was motivated by the desire to tell good stories, and how much of it was just a platform for The Message.

Why are people rewriting history and acting like Russell T. Davis wasn't always like this? This guy was attacking fans online before it was common for the industry to attack the fans. Almost 20 years ago, whenever fans complained about badly written episodes ( Like "Love & Monsters") he lashed out, calling us "Internet mosquitoes" and "fake fans". He's overrated as a writer, and he was at the forefront of abusing the fans.

It’s like the love George Lucas gets now, when people were genuinely furious with him for a long, long time. RTD was always woke. I think a lot of people who enjoyed New Who were probably still left of center ten years ago, and didn’t see what was going on because they agreed with it. But just because you get off the crazy train doesn’t mean everyone does. RTD started in the same place as a lot of other people. He’s just going further with it.

RTD has been very vocal about gender ideology these past few years, so, no, it's not a surprise. No one had heard of any of this in 2005 when he rebooted the series. Perhaps it has to do with what he's allowed to get away with by the BBC.

I remember the 'policy', on it's introduction to the public, used one of the BBC's most popular programmes -- The Great British Bakeoff -- as a cover photo, as it was a format where they knew this kind of positive discrimination could be applied easily under the banner of "diversity & representation". It is not coincidental that the choice of contestants ever since has always felt like a checklist, nor that the "winners" have also been skewed towards marginalised groups. See, this is the problem with enacting policies like this. It makes it harder, as an audience, to buy into the authencity of what we're watching. Because it all feels very much like everything we see on screen is even more manufactured than it already was.

All Russel T Davies had to do was not explain why he was using an 'earlier instance' of Davros. If he had just shown Davros earlier in his life people would have been mildly disappointed at worst, hoping to see the iconic look. But RTD is a man who thrives on validation. He needs people to see his motivations and judge him justly by them. He knows that if he says the original version of Davros's design is offensive, he is forever locking this version of Davros in as no future showrunner can use the older version without being judged by it. This Davros, his Davros, is now /the/ Davros. He also could have trimmed the 'male presenting doctors just wouldn't understand' line from his script and all the reception would have been tolerable as well. But he desperately needed to add that in, knowing fully well it would fan the flames of outrage instead of delivering a very forgettable episode of Doctor Who. I wish he would stop sabotaging the show in order to build himself up.

David Tennant was always a plant and more of a 'yes man', and probably more willing to tolerate whatever Eccleston wasn't. I will also point out that Eccleston went from praising Davies prior to production, talking about how impressed he was by Davies script for "The Second Coming" and how excited he was to be working with RTD again, to effectively never mentioning his name when talking about Doctor Who. Supposition, yes. Reading between the lines, yes. But I'm willing to bet Russell T Davies has definitely got magnitude 10 level allegations that are leading to magnitude 11 forced virtue signalling now he's returned to the role of showrunner....

It's kinda why i would never dare put transgenderism in a show about time travel. Mainly because the principles behind it and medical technology gets to the point similar to the IPad, where an iteration of the transition procedure is such a universal success that every previous iteration would be viewed as a failure in one aspect or another like how we find attempts at tablet computers before the Ipad to be failures. There is aslo the "retrofitting" problem where improving the previous iterations to be like the new one becomes impossible dur to the issues with system architecture and engineering that you have to start from scratch, something you cant really do with a person undergone medical surgery. These implications while being an eventual reality (and thus pose a good question for sci-fi) would mean that there leads to a bloodbath that would make it impossible to write without getting cancelled. Such a limiting factor on creativity that you cant realy do anything with it so i personally leave it out.

I think there’s an underlying good reason for this that’s been lost. How many times do we have to sit through a film where either the woman is a talking pair of boobies, or she’s been written and directed as a man, as the director has nothing more to offer? This is how we end up with a film where a woman fights off 5 men, outruns the men, flips a car, and then knocks back a whiskey. The director then says “I gave you a strong female character” completely missing the point, and all they’ve done is change a Jason Statham role to female. But this situation isn’t going to be solved just by flipping the director, it might help sometimes but it’s a bigger issue. Case in point, Weinstein championed female directors and female leads as he would force them to put in full nudity, and make them ‘work’ for the parts, he enjoyed his power over them

Personally, I think that the return was a Wishmaster move, and the special was literally them gloating, "Be careful what you wish for." They have heard for a while that people didn't like the current run of DW, and some of the themes that kept recurring was the wish that RTD and Tennant would return. I think they then said to themselves, "You'd like that eh? You think that would really change the show into something that you, my garbage fan would like? Well, we'll see. Let's give you what you want, and see how you really like it. You undesirable trash fans have no more allies in this industry ☆loud supervillain laugh☆ " It's a Douglas Quaid standing in the same frame with Cohaagen moment. If you notice, Doctor 10 basically said that Jodie was better than him, just because he was a biological woman, then. Donna also said something similar She basically said that D10, as a male would never be as good as a woman. Which is something Rowling got in trouble for. They are completely renouncing and repudiating what went before, and they are using D10ant as the representative/stand-in for OLD DW. "We reject your timeline, and replace it with our own."

I restarted watching the New series of Doctor Who with Christopher Eccleston. Davies' politics were always there under the surface. For example, i believe it was episode 7 or 9 that took place in 1941 England. The young mother and kids were stealing people's food while they were hiding in bomb shelters. Eccleston's doctor reacted by saying, "I love it. It's Marxism in action." It was definitely more subtle at the time. *Correction in the comments Moffat wrote episode 9, "The Empty Child." Davies had executive producer credit.

Except that was a pretty fun and layered scene when you think about it. It was revealed that the owner of the home was capable of producing a full Sunday dinner in WWII London during the era of rationing, because he was friendly with the local butcher. So "friendly" in fact that he was in a gay relationship with said butcher and cheating on his wife. And imagine that, showing an LGBT character as having negative traits. This kind of politics usually works well when it's subtle and clever, not when it's clubbed unsubtly over people's heads.

I have never enjoyed new Doctor Who. Even before it became what it is, the 1 hour timeslot made everything more formulaic, and it never felt like an extension of the classic series to me. When they started ret-conning things, I just stopped paying attention. Star Wars had already robbed me of some of my childhood joy, and I didn't want to not enjoy Tom Baker as much as I have in my life. The Davros thing is extraordinarily stupid. It's not even a wheelchair- it's a life support machine, and he has artificially extended his life in the pursuit of knowledge, power, and the advancement of the Kaled race. He is withered because he refuses to die after far too many years. There's nothing disparaging to folks in wheelchairs in the characters. He's more of a cosmic WWII villain.

Even a few seconds of hesitation or a line where Poe would tell him he had to shoot would have helped. People with no sense of morality can't write heroes. I think that's the root of the problem.

What BAFFLES me the most is that RTD can write great stories with representation. He seemingly understands great storytelling, or at least did understand it. He did it consistently with Doctor Who and Torchwood. One story that always makes me laugh is when he was talking about the BTS for Children of Earth, the third series of Torchwood. There’s a character death in that story that is incredibly impactful, and it was floated that the character might survive somehow in the writing room. RTD was always labelled as “the softy” when it came to his stories, which made it funnier when he insisted on keeping the ending as heart wrenching as possible, leaving the character dead. It was a lead character, who was also gay and Russel didn’t shy away from the idea of letting that character stay dead, when the tropes of a lot of current day writing would probably have you keep them alive to avoid “burying your gays” or whatever. There were some writing issues with that storyline, but aside from those, the writing was brilliant, creative, dark and thoughtful, and laden with representation of well written characters. It’s why I had the highest hopes for RTD returning, he gets why representation is important but also why strong writing is key. He’s like the BBC’s golden child. Guess he’s just gone a little far off in the deep end recently, but even his more recent work is well written. This recent episode of DW is such an anomaly.
