Great article, very interesting insights re Dr Who fans. I recognise what he is talking about. Thank goodness this is impacting more and more people.

Interesting thank you.

That quote from Juno Dawson (heard the name but not quite sure who they are) is utterly fucking revolting.

How is such gross misogyny acceptable these days, if it comes from a certain group.

I found this interesting:
'When I was working on Doctor Who around ten years ago, it was an unwritten law that the highly engaged, highly entitled, highly strung breed of fans were to be ignored as much as possible.'

Yes the quote is revolting and quite in keeping with Dawson's other comments.

Countess I found that fascinating too.

'Highly engaged, highly entitled and highly strung.'

Sounds so familiar. At some point the adults left the building.

Yup Juno, that's exactly how women speak. What a great role model the BBC are providing for children.

A writer of fantasy who is solidly grounded in reality. Not uncommon, I think, with genuinely entertaining fantasies.

Here is the quote by Juno Dawson...

Doctor Who author, trans woman Juno Dawson, who said in Attitude Magazine that she “just wanted to be fucked like a woman, it’s not about what hole it goes in”.

That is a disgusting thing to say and it is misogyny right there.

Juno Dawson writes popular young adult novels like this:

Juno is literally putting words and ideas into girls' heads.

I think that the problem with the current Dr Who is they are trying to hard to be inclusive at the cost of some pretty poor scripts. Jodie Whittaker isn't a good Dr, not sure if it's the scripts or her but she seems to be constantly in a mixture of panic and confusion. The scripts try to hard to be socially aware at the cost of entertainment which is what Dr Who is meant to be.

Glad Juno is sharing her views on female sexuality with girls aged 12 and up.

That's just brilliant.

I was watching the latest dr who yesterday I pointed out she was girly and scattered unlike the others my daughter thinks she is like 11

Wrath what the f##k??!! My daughter has read Juno’s books - Inc library books from school.

BigFatLiar -I sort of agree. I think the Matt Smith interpretation was probably a bit similar. Have to say I do like Jodie Whittaker and my daughters love her.

Dawson- Stonewall School Champion 2014.

I do like Jodie Whittaker but she’s not a great doctor. Seems to be constantly on the verge of a panic attack

The scripts are dire. Peter Capaldi was let down by dreadful scripts too.

Juno Dawson has always given me the creeps. Even before transition.

I was so looking forward to a female Doctor, as I've been a Who fan since the 60s, but I gave up on the last series (and indeed on the last Capaldi one) because of the utterly boring scripts and one-dimensional characters.

Watching it is like playing woke bingo.

An awful lot of TV drama and books are boringly, clunkingly moralistic these days. It's quite Victorian in a way.

I agree with TimeLady. And I was looking forward to a lady Dr too.

'When I was working on Doctor Who around ten years ago, it was an unwritten law that the highly engaged, highly entitled, highly strung breed of fans were to be ignored as much as possible.'

Pandering to the hardcore fanbase landed us with the Matt Smith era; overly-complicated stories written purely for geeks where the casual viewer had to wait to hear Smith's last-minute explanation to understand what the hell had happened in the previous hour.

I gave up watching the new series with JW because I got fed up with the preachy storylines. It's boring, doesn't make great tv and a total turn off if all you want is enjoyable sci-fi.

Didn't like capaldi as Dr who at all which was such a disappointment.

Whittaker is ok but I don't know why she has to have her mouth hanging open all the time. I think it's supposed to make her look surprised and excited or something but it makes her look a bit dim which is not what I was hoping for with first female doc!

Current heavy handed moralising is boring.

I grew up with Tom baker and so naturally like the goodies/baddies/running up and down lots of identical corridors etc

More recent Dr who has been excellent-weeping angels, the one with the library, the one with the base on Mars and the water shooting everywhere, really brilliant. Forgot which doc, tennent maybe... Might get on Netflix

I think people are in danger of throwing out the baby with the bath water.

Inclusivity and Doctor Who aren't necessarily incompatible. I like the egalitarian spirit of JW's doctor. It's only the ever creeping trans/fetishist Juno Dawson etc agenda that's inappropriate and needs to be rooted out. Let's not throw away centuries of progress (or decades in DWs case) because some weirdos have muscled in to put themselves front and centre!

But we had Captain Jack, lesbian lizard etc and that was all fine as not heavy handed

Interesting that Dawson is still a darling of the BBC but Roberts got cancelled because 'values'.

'Fucked like a woman'
Men who enjoy sissification are not women. What is the difference?

Excellent article. This summed it up for me:

I used to wonder what happened to all the repressed, uptight people I remembered from my youth. The self-deniers, the quivering zealots, the senior prefects and hall monitors. The revellers in victimhood, moral certainty and sententiousness, who enjoy nothing better than a good old ban, where did they go? Turns out, they never left us. They went to Uni, got woke, and became our masters.
