i agree The Doctor should stay A-Sexual. When RTD introduced Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor, i guessed we would get these kind of episodes. He did the same in Torchwood with John Barrowman's Captain Jack
@@stephenclaridge1896 Jack I always thought right from his intro in the empty child was bisexual. I always liked his character & will always maintain that Torchwood children of earth is 1 of the best pieces of science fiction written in the last 2 decades.
The Doctor/Rogue romance might have worked better IF they had played it out over the course of the season. I like Ruby Sunday well enough, but I want the season of The Doctor and Rogue travelling the stars together, developing a real relationship, and EARNING that, "Come find me." line. As it is, the way it developed felt way too fast. I mean he knew the guy for like a couple of hours.
@@thewhoview Yeah. My main problem is that we're back on the doctor romance train. Although this does feel more warranted than Rose or Clara, so there's that.
I think the doctor (and rogue) quickly clock each other as fellow travellers with similar losses in their past, and who deal with that loss in similar ways. This builds a rapport between them quickly. The kiss takes place when rogue is about to sacrifice himself for the doctor's best friend, and therefore miss out (once again) at the potential chance of a happy future with someone he instinctively senses is a potential true soul mate.
There was very little story but it did have a sense of being Who. Beyond that it was truly awful. Why, in a show predominately aimed at children, do they push in every single episode LGBTQI+++ bullshit?
Because Sex Education was very successful for Netflix and RTD sold the idea of a gay Doctor to Disney with it's star as the Doctor. Shame it all backfired.
I presume people aren't literally suggesting they prefer an actual "asexual" Doctor. It's more that his romantic and sexual life isn't shown on screen. We know the doctor is a father from episode 1 of the classic show, so he must have had sex in some form at one point!
@@dogblessamerica Go back and watch Tenant era. Season 3, just lost his love Rose, immediatly snogs Martha, falls in love as John Smith (still wants her after returning to time lord) then ends the season snogging Kylie Minogue (Astrid). His romantic and sexual life has been quite central to new-who this whole damn time.
Ncuti Gatwa is playing a happily gay man in his 30s. He’s not playing the Doctor. Sorry, the Doctor is not Gay. Expect the ratings to plummet after this. A backlash is coming!
@@thewhoview True. A lot of kids that fill in these Census forms call themselves Non-Binary either to be cool or because they haven’t made up their minds yet! Just need time to grow up. The ways things are going Dr Who will end up with 1% of the audience 😊
Why do you assume that gay or bisexual men would be interested in the doctor being gay that's ridiculous. Most of us just want the doctor to be a super intelligent alien who travels in time and space and has fantastic interesting adventures. Zero interest in whoever he wants to kiss. We have little enough Doctor Who why do we have to waste it on romance??
@@CyberSlammer2024 I know that! Unfortunately, RTD is writing his fanboy fiction. Most Gay fans didn’t want the Dr being played Gay. He was meant to be far above human sexuality cravens.
I think shows need to be careful of how many contemporary references you drop in a show. Bridgerton may not be remembered in 20 years. I hope Doctor Who and this episode are remembered. I liked the initial setup of the episode but lost interest throughout. My wife, who only watches Doctor Who because I am, really enjoyed this episode.
@@taliesinllanfair4338 I'm happy your wife enjoyed the episode. 😊 As long as someone finds enjoyment in it, that's all that matters. 😁👍 I haven't watched it since broadcast, so there's a lot that I have forgotten, but from what I remember, it was just okay. I liked the setting. Rouge as a character was fine. I don't really have any problems with him, but he is pretty much just Captain Jack. I don't hate the doctor being romantic; I mean, we have seen that before, but I personally prefer the doctor to be more of an asexual character, like how he was in classic Who. I remember they cheated with Ruby & one of the bird creatures with how Ruby actually overpowered her because of the bracelet. I totally agree with you on the Bridgerton thing, if in 10+ years no one remembers that show this episode would have aged poorly.
Once more Disney buys something only to dump on it. This is so woke we love the last Doctor Who now more than ever. So, no likes here if you think this is Doctor Who. Come up with your own characters and stories and stop dumping on normal characters because you lack imagination to come up with a story everyone would like...we know why because you can't so you woke up things everyone likes then complain when it fails because you couldn't come up with a new story. And if you like this new Doctor Who you are not a Doctor Who fan...

Now we just need the Peter Cushing Doctor.
Yeah screw it everyone's cannon now might as well make the big finish unbound doctors canon as well & everyone from the curse of fatal death sketch 😆
I in agreement with basically everything you say here. I also prefer an asexual classic Who Doctor.
We both park in the same shuttle bay Prowl 😉😄

I will agree with the (too much) crying. Please doctor who, stop with all the crying.
If having sexual attraction makes the doctor "more human" then you are backhandedly saying that Asexuals are less human.
I agreed

@@dogblessamerica we actually don't know how time lords reproduce it has never been stated in the show, but yes he could have.
No I'm saying I prefer if the doctor wasn't romantically involved with any character. Sorry for the confusion 😊

I'd like to see jenna ortega play next companion?
That would actually be interesting to see 🤔😉👌
WHo the hell is Richard Grant????
He played the doctor in the 2003 webcast animation doctor who scream of the shalka. It came out before the show came back in 2005, but it's NOT canon
Ncuti Gatwa is playing a happily gay man in his 30s. He’s not playing the Doctor. Sorry, the Doctor is not Gay. Expect the ratings to plummet after this. A backlash is coming!

It does feel a lot of the time it's more about making a statement rather than telling a compelling story.
I dont want woke sickness. No children should watch this show.
I don't think this show would be able to attract children 😄
