    I haven't watched Dr Who since I was a kid and Daleks ruled the world. It became incredibly popular in recent years until the BBC's woke agenda took over.

    If there's one thing that makes me mad it's having an agenda rammed down my throat.

    I was an avid watcher back in the days I wore short trousers to school. Then rarely took much interest in it until Katy Manning came along.

    That is false news spread by X trolls with the racist agenda. It spread far enough that the tabloid The Sun published the story. So now the false news has grown farther.

    BBC:

    Quote

    “This story is incorrect, Doctor Who has not been shelved. As we have previously stated, the decision on season 3 will be made after season 2 airs...The deal with Disney+ was for 26 episodes – and exactly half of those still have to transmit. And as for the rest, we never comment on the Doctor and future storylines.”

    BBC:

    Well, they need to go back to the drawing board then! The same has been happening to Lara Croft, she of Tomb Raider fame.

    She is an adventurer, raids tombs and shoots her enemies. That's all I need to know, but now she's being turned into a miserable, self righteous cry baby.

    Please explain the 'racist agenda' to which you refer.

    I do not know about Lara Croft or how that is similar to this case.
    I would say the racist agenda is those who are advocating racism. The X trolls are upset that a non-white actor has been cast in some TV series that historically has been cast by many other white actors. They do not really care about the history of the series or the famous character, instead they have co-opted some fans into innocently (or not) rebroadcasting the trolls racism.
