WHAT’S UP EVERY BODY!!!!!

[@lalida6432]

Loved Moffat’s ‘Coupling’ as well!

[@SavannahJ79]

I haven't watched Dr Who since I was a child, but if Nicola is in one episode, I will catch up on as much as I can, because the power of her. Love seeing her in anything.

[@marysmith8128]

I have never watched a single episode but am totally in with Nicola in it. Amazing actress and human.

[@alfaaby]

Same.

[@Ibalistic_hedge]

Stop when you get to season 11, bc it sucks from there

[@SavannahJ79]

@@Ibalistic_hedge LOL thank you for the heads up.

[@MKPiatkowski]

​@@SavannahJ79That's only one person's opinion. Others liked the later seasons. The show changed show runners and Jodi Whittiker became the Doctor. A lot of people had a problem with that.

[@tomimpala]

It's such a non issue. It isn't the angry mob canceling people in most cases, it's very scared CEOs in entertainment making sheepish decisions like what happened with SNL and Shane Gillis. But in cases where it is the mob, that's people just voting with their wallets - people aren't forced to watch a certain actor. It's their free speech to see "get him/her/them off!".

This man brings so much joy to the world. ❤

Karen Gillan everyone's beloved DW companion. Whatever she does she brings gold too. A living legend.

[@andrewbyrne7321]

Steven moffatt in my opinion is the best writer of new doctor who his episodes were the best

[@klop4228]

For me he's the best individual episode writer, but was a bit hit-or-miss as showrunner

[@Elwaves2925]

@@klop4228 I've always used the image you see on an oscilloscope to illustrate the showrunners. RTD's first era was like a steady wave smoothly going up and down, while Moffat was sharper with higher highs but also lower lows. Chinballs, well I could use a DW episode title to describe him but I won't. Not sure how well that works but there it is.

[@pferreira1983]

@@klop4228 Yeah he never had a plan.

[@carina9295]

Reckon that Douglas needs Malcolm Tucker’s help

[@lalida6432]

Oh! I”m so there! Ben Myles, Alex Kingston, Karen Gillan, Hugh Bonneville! Who else?!!! Love Moffat’s stuff. ❤

[@nyliram2009]

where to watch?

[@lindsaydrewe8219]

Didn’t David have 2 suits? A brown and a blue one❤❤

[@whereami2477]

I love Steven's mind lol, he's so witty

[@jackvieiraoficial]

It sounds like The Morning Show

[@TheMultiPickle]

What is Moffs webcam doing?

[@tomimpala]

I think he turned on face tracking lol

[@whophd]

Is this new info? He's written TWO episodes for Ncuti?

[@nathanthomas5133]

Nope, its pretty well publicised. He wrote Boom in the series that just finished & the next Christmas special they mention in the video that stars Nicola Coughlan

[@eriksonoliveiraiii1605]

​@@nathanthomas5133Also known as TWO episodes 😅

[@carina9295]

Now if only SM could keep his camera steady

[@Andrew-md1gl]

​@@eriksonoliveiraiii1605read it again

[@ozancandemirsk9423]

​@@eriksonoliveiraiii1605 I'll help you. "Nope" is in response to "Is this new info?" He doesn't negate the fact that he wrote two episodes.

[@SoTOreo]

interview about cancel culture and this guy has the balls to say he didnt like Tom Baker?! RIP lol

[@theresabradley4716]

He didn’t say that. He said he always liked whoever was the current Doctor.
