Synopsis:
The dazzling Thirteenth Doctor (Jodie Whittaker) falls out of the sky just in time to thwart an alien huntsman who is stalking human prey. With little time to spare and the population of Sheffield (and Earth!) at risk, the Doctor recruits three new friends - gentle Ryan (Tosin Cole), no-nonsense Yasmin (Mandip Gill) and Ryan's step-grandfather, Graham (Bradley Walsh) - who soon feel more like family than companions. Join the foursome in ten fresh and enormously thrilling roller-coaster adventures across time and the universe.

I can't give this Zero Starts - Doctor Who: New Series 11 review by MA

Spoiler Alert
29/12/2018

Confession time .... I am 55 years old woman. That's it, but during my life I have grown up with Dr Who. From the days in my playpen in-front of the old B&W TV to today's vast wide screens. It is always disconcerting when faced with a regeneration and a new actor takes the place of a beloved character; it has also led to new adventures and vile villains to defeat against all odds.

For the first time of being a loyal follower of the series I turned the TV off. It was an immensely sad decision but I was being preached to about how I should accept this or that and was so busy giving an extremist agenda that there was no story and no adventure to follow and cheer on the Doctor and her companions. It takes the position that people are not accepting of differences and must be force fed with it, whereas people as accepting but dislike it being forced on them thereby making differences and divides

Now it has become an agenda based program of tick boxes

The doctor has become focused on a northern accent and forgets to be the doctor

The police officer is as wet as a wet weekend and I would not rely on her to look for a lost cat

The young man with issues needed help rather than being taken across the universe

And the "older" bloke was just there to constantly say how old he is

Does this show the agenda of the BBC to preach an extreme agenda rather than entertain and give a balanced view Perhaps, but it has destroyed a rather fantastic series.

I love wellies! - Doctor Who: New Series 11 review by NP

Spoiler Alert
Updated 29/08/2019

As a fan of Doctor Who for many years (since the Sea Devils stomped out of the waters to menace Jon Pertwee in the early 1970s in fact), I found this latest incarnation of the show quite good. There has clearly been a decision to cut back on the continuity so beloved of recent series (which some felt alienated viewers who didn't have an A Level in Time Lord history), and it is true to say the plots have been simplified a little in favour of reeling in new viewers. New Doctor Jodie Whittaker isn't as eccentric as some earlier incarnations, but she still has moments of delightful silliness. This is still very much Doctor Who, only Chris Chibnall-style, as opposed to Steven Moffat/RTD/JNT etc-style (tick as appropriate).

For anyone who sees this series as agenda-driven, or box-ticking, there are those who found fault in previous incarnations of the show (agenda-driven is an ongoing criticism, with each show-runner accused of a different agenda). At the heart of it, for me, there's a likeable new Doctor, three very appealing (and very 'real') time-travelling companions (or friends), and some great stories (The Woman Who Fell to Earth, Kerblam!, The Witchfinders and It Takes You Away), some good (Arachnids in the UK, The Ghost Monument, Rosa) and a couple of howlers (The Tsuranga Conundrum, Demons of the Punjab). So for all the change, in many ways, it's business as usual!

Good acting but she is in the wrong film - Doctor Who: New Series 11 review by MB

Spoiler Alert
07/03/2019

The new doctor tries hard and does a good job. But I've always known the doctor as a well spoken gentleman. Now he has turned into a woman with a Liverpuddlian accent who can't talk properly (sorry but 'think I of ought to' or whatever it was is not good English). It felt a bit like turning up to a Tomb Raider movie to find the main character has become a fat bloke from Ireland.

I agree with the other reviews. I do feel Doctor Who is turning into an exercise in political correctness for the sake of it.

Critic review

Doctor Who: New Series 11 review by Mark McPherson - Cinema Paradiso

After more than 50 years of the time-traveling Doctor, the saga of Doctor Who has reached a new milestone. Jodie Whittaker has taken on the role as the first woman to be placing the titular nameless Time Lord. With a new showrunner, new writers, and even new stories that touch on more progressive subjects, Doctor Who is evolving. The only problem is that it still seems to be in transition with a rocky landing for taking this show to the next level.

A problem that some Doctor Who iterations face is what focuses the show will have. Doctors 10 and 11 have been lucky enough to have strong charismatic personalities with a story worth serializing. With Whittaker’s run as the 13th Doctor, the new Doctor seems to be stumbling to find that core of the series. The show almost seems like a throwback in how it ambles about more episodic adventures trying to find its groove. Sadly, the meandering doesn’t amount to as much as the show could be.

On a representational level, this series of Doctor Who is both well-meaning and troubling. The very fact that a Doctor Who series features a female protagonist and stories about black history and Indian culture is worth noting. And while representation certainly matters and I hold nothing against the mere presence of more diversity on television, their stories are more notable for the inclusion than their writing. So we’re placed within a troubling spot of wanting to adore a Doctor Who episode that takes note of the civil rights movement America and the almost distant way it approaches the material’s tougher obstacles while mixing in that sci-fi twist. This is to say nothing of the way the episode on Indian culture carefully stumbles around the subject of colonialism because a show such as this doesn’t seem equipped nor interested to fully explore this subject matter.

And so this series is at a crossroads of being important television representation and half-thought sci-fi adventure with characters who haven’t quite found their groove. It’s not that Whittaker is bad in her role; she’s a fine actor. She just needs to work her way into this role to define her character as her own past the mere appearance. In time and with more series, this could be doable. At the moment, however, she is still in the transitional period, as are the newbies to this franchise trying to turn something unique out of such a franchise. You need a little more than Cybermen and Daleks to make a compelling Doctor Who program that isn’t just more of the same.

Doctor Who Series 11 has great potential that has yet to be realized that I really hope it can pull through to make the next series a strong one.
