Who’s your fave doctor who?

[@NicoleACottageWitch]

@@chaneldays 11. I started with 10 because he was the only one I’d heard of but then 11 won me over. Unless Dr. River Song counts as a time travelling doctor, in which case, she’d be my favourite.

Im sorry to hear you haven’t been well ❤️‍🩹 Man, I have no idea why I didn’t jump on Persephone’s Garden because I love Waterhouse and Pre-Raphaelites myself. Again, I know I already mentioned this, but I love your rune deck. Your cross-stitch is adorable!!! Love owls. 🦉 I’ve never attempted cross-stitch, I was always too afraid 😂 I’m so happy to hear you’ve enjoyed the new Doctor Who! I was so stoked to learn Russel T Davies was returning (and I heard Murray Gold returned as composer as well?) and then I didn’t watch it, I was too nervous! 😂 I love Jodi Whitaker but I didn’t watch any of the episodes during her run. I’ve watched and own a ton of the classic stories, we collect them, and then all of the reissued series up until season 10. I’ve only watched up through season 9, because I fell in love with Capaldi and wasn’t ready to watch him regenerate 😂 I also felt for me, the way the 9th season wrapped up was actually an ‘ending’ for me. It was just so beautiful. But I’m sure I’ll watch the rest eventually. And yes, Russel T Davies was the showrunner for the 9th Doctor as well. (Sorry for my Doctor Who tangent!)

@@SecondThoughtsAboutTheMission I love a Doctor Who tangent. You listen to musicals right? Just asking because Jonathan Groff is in one of the episodes and his relationship with the Doctor is too adorable. I wish I liked 13 more than I did because I do like Jodie Whittaker, but somehow it just didn’t do it for me. I think it was the writing and the stories she got. But I’m already enjoying Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor. It’s a totally different energy from Capaldi’s era but so much fun. A bit closer to Matt Smith, I think. And yes, Murray Gold is back-he’s made for scoring Doctor Who.

We’ll have to have a good Doctor Who chat sometime! I’m such a geek for it! Yes, I do listen to musicals, and I did see a preview for that episode! My boyfriend pre-pandemic had quite a career with musical theatre so I was lucky to see countless broadway shows here in Boston. I agree, I don’t think it was Jodi’s fault at all, it was the writing. My take was that Chibnall’s aim was to revert back to the sci-fi/historical based stories from the 60s through the 80s, and while I love and collect those stories, the show had ‘evolved’. My mom really liked the seasons with 13, which is cute. I can see a lot of people enjoying it if they weren’t aware of the show beforehand. I’ve heard good things about Ncuti Gatwa as an actor although i don’t think I’ve seen him in anything. Anyway, I’m sure I’ll like him.

[@NicoleACottageWitch]

@@SecondThoughtsAboutTheMission that’s interesting. I hadn’t read up on Chibnall’s intentions for the show and I haven’t watched many of the classic episodes. Maybe I’ve just gotten too used to the reboot to appreciate them. I’d love to be closer to broadway. I’ve been there once and saw a couple of things but otherwise it’s cast recordings for me! I know occasionally touring shows come through Canada but I haven’t seen many.

The first series of Jodie’s Who was awesome I thought, but the second and the third (especially) were poor, which was a shame.

[@NicoleACottageWitch]

Yeah I like her as an actor and I think she was a pretty good doctor but she just didn’t get the spectacular moments and speeches that some of the other doctors have gotten, which I thought was too bad. And I just couldn’t get into a lot of the stories she got.
