INTRODUCING JODIE WHITTAKER – THE THIRTEENTH DOCTOR

New star of BBC AMERICA’s hit series Doctor Who Announced Today

The BBC and BBC AMERICA today announced to the world that Jodie Whittaker will be the new Doctor Who. She will be the Thirteenth Time Lord and take over from Peter Capaldi who leaves the global hit show at Christmas.

New head writer and executive producer Chris Chibnall who takes over from Steven Moffat on the next series made the decision to cast the first ever woman in the iconic role.

Jodie Whittaker says: “I’m beyond excited to begin this epic journey - with Chris and with every Whovian on this planet. It’s more than an honor to play the Doctor. It means remembering everyone I used to be, while stepping forward to embrace everything the Doctor stands for: hope. I can’t wait.”

Chris Chibnall, New Head Writer and Executive Producer says: “After months of lists, conversations, auditions, recalls, and a lot of secret-keeping, we’re excited to welcome Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor. I always knew I wanted the Thirteenth Doctor to be a woman and we’re thrilled to have secured our number one choice. Her audition for The Doctor simply blew us all away.  Jodie is an in-demand, funny, inspiring, super-smart force of nature and will bring loads of wit, strength and warmth to the role. The Thirteenth Doctor is on her way.”

Peter Capaldi says: “Anyone who has seen Jodie Whittaker’s work will know that she is a wonderful actress of great individuality and charm. She has above all the huge heart to play this most special part. She’s going to be a fantastic Doctor.”

I want to know how Jodie found out she got the role. Was she buying avocados? Did she miss the first call?

THE 13TH DOCTOR TO BE REVEALED ON JULY 16TH!

SO THAT FINALE HAPPENED AND I AM SURE NOONE WAS READY FOR WHAT HAPPENED. Some little notes under the cut for obvious spoilers

I loved Bill’s ending and it was beautiful and Clara like, right? This is the second time in a row that the Doctor will probably never know what truly happened to his companion. Although I could see Bill returning sometime.

I can’t believe that this could be the end of the Master/Missy. But I am sure it will not. How could it be? The Master by shooting Missy timelooped the events. Missy kills him, he kills her, regenerates into Missy, is killed by Master etc etc. But it was a Greek tragedy that she couldn’t for one moment truly embrace The Doctor, moments before she had the chance and was determined to.

That scene where all 3 pointed their screwdrivers was very The Day of The Doctor like.

That past companion montage was amazing! It was so beautiful but no Rory or Mickey especially when Jenny and Vastra were in it?

The first Doctor will teach him a lesson and make him go on, right? They are going through the same thing. Fought the cybermen and have to regenerate but don’t want to.

How are we going to wait for Christmas after this finale? How?

John Simm just said in an interview that

Bill and The Master were down there for 10 years.
