Either change it or end it, but this cant go on!

WE THE UNDERSIGNED ENDORSE AND DECLARE…

We are all passionate loving fans of Doctor Who.

We are all ages, all sexes, all colours, and come from all over the world:

From schoolchildren to pensioners we share one thing in common:

Doctor Who has meant the world to us and inspired us from the day we first felt its magic:

AND WE NOW DESPAIR!

Some of us did not believe the experiment of the Chibnall era and a female Doctor was ever going to work, its true:

Some of us were excited and inspired by the show taking risks and doing something new.

But now we are united when we say: where our beloved franchise is today SIMPLY WILL NOT DO!

Our show was always UNIFYING: it did not judge us, it embraced us, it did not seek to change us but inspire us: it was for everyone!

But what you have allowed it to become is terrible, a tragedy.

In place of sound fundamentals of good story telling and respect and love for the legacy tone and character of the show, you have delivered us something broken and dysfunctional that only cares for its own agenda and does not love us anymore.

Where RTD and Steven Moffat always understood the fans were the beating heart of the show, to Chris Chibnall we are an irrelevance and inconvenience, unless we mindlessly fawn over whatever scraps he throws at us.

Rather than respect us, we have been treated with contempt, rather than talk to us we have been spurned, treated like dirt on a shoe, rather than bring us with him, this showrunner has shown us only contempt and not cared about driving us away.

Neither have the actors helped matters either.

Jodie Whittaker is an actress. We don’t hate her as a person, far from it not at all, for despite the horrific abuse that has been thrown on any dissenters who have questioned what’s been going on, we only ever have wanted the show to be popular and good, healthy growing and alive.

Jodie made clear in her podcast with David Tennant just how unprepared she was for the role. She admits she was so lost she did not know how to play the scenes or what she should even seek to do. In some ways we have sympathy and can see how Chris Chibnall has let her down, but neither has she actually embraced us or shown any credible understanding of either the character the part the legacy or the show. Was she really the best choice for this role?

But you pay her £250,000 pounds a year from a TV Tax that hurts the most vulnerable in Britain and is now massively loathed by the people of Britain

Under this applying production, with actors lost in the part and writers more interested in signalling their virtue than entertaining the audience, the ratings have gone down and down and down and down.

It is no use you telling us the show is not political when its every pore now oozes politics, not as a theme or tone to explore an issue from multiple viewpoints, but as a club to beat the audience over the head, nor can you tell its joyful when it is joyless, nor fun when it is miserable, nor exciting when its dull.

Where was the “Missy” quality that made Michelle Gomez such a success? Why did we not get a River Song or a Romana, but instead have a lead who cannot carry a scene without better actors in support?

And while you have turned the audience off by abandoning the care and quality that made Doctor Who into what it WAS, the merchandising has collapsed, the show has become a laughing stock, and now has become a symbol for everything WRONG with the BBC, thats has been so arrogant and stubborn in so many ways.

Why did you do this to Doctor Who?

When will you recognise the pain you have caused and stop pretending we don’t exist?

Clearly, we are at a crisis point.

Just yesterday, fresh from insulting John Hurt’s portrayal of the Doctor for reasons we can barely understand, Jodie took it upon herself to spin to Entertainment Weekly that she has been hired for another quarter of a million pounds to drag the show even further down next year.

Where is the showrunner?

Since when does the lead of a show rehire herself?

And does she really think we are going to just accept that when the ratings are now on the floor and still dropping, or the continued disrespect from the BBC, thats done nothing to support or protect this fanbase, while Twitter accounts connected to the production office have led horrible vile online cyber bullying against true long term fans of the show, even driving some to contemplate suicide?

WE SAY NO

We will NOT go along with this. You have mismanaged and been negligent and brought the worlds greatest long running sci fi franchise to its knees, now a subject of public ridicule and contempt.

Therefore, we sign this petition today to say:

THIS WILL NOT DO!

EITHER:

Replace Jodie Whittaker, the show runner and those who have written for series 11 and 12

OR

Put the show back on hiatus to sort it out properly

EITHER WAY TO CONTINUE WITH THE CURRENT PRODUCTION TEAM IS NOW A WASTE OF LICENSE PAYERS MONEY, INCLUDING THE PENSIONERS THE BBC IS NOW GOUGING WHEN IT PROMISED NOT TO.

“When people have nothing left to lose, they lose it”, a wise saying says.

Trying to tough this out and carry on will simply no longer do.

Nothing will get better now, it will only get worse:

The BBC has lost the audience and the license payers respect and made our show a political football forgetting and abusing the trust we placed in it to be stewards and good guardians, not reckless wreckers, of our beloved show.

THEREFORE:

WE THE UNDERSIGNED DECLARE:

THE BBC MUST NOW CHANGE COURSE,

AND MAKE SURE THAT NO NEW “DOCTOR WHO” IS MADE AGAIN:

UNTIL IT IS FOR EVERYONE AND MADE WITH CARE LOVE AND QUALITY AGAIN!

WE WILL NOT ACCEPT ANOTHER YEAR OF THIS EMBARISHMENT AND SHAME.

WE INVITE ALL PRESS TO CONTACT US AND HEAR OUR MANY STORIES OF WHAT WE HAVE HAD TO ENDURE JUST FOR STAYING LOYAL TO THE SHOW WE TRULY LOVE, NOT THIS LAUGHING STOCK IT HAS BECOME

UNITED WE DECLARE: THIS IS #NotMyDoctorWho: AND JUST WON’T DO!
