"Jodie's magnificent, iconic Doctor has exceeded all our high expectations. She's been the gold standard leading actor, shouldering the responsibility of being the first female Doctor with style, strength, warmth, generosity and humour."
Not sure I agree with Chibnall here.
I think she could have been if Chibnall had given her better material to work with.

Aye, I blame the show runner too. It's a shame she won't be there for a new direction, presuming the next show runner actually wants to mix things up a bit.

I don't think many could have done better with what she was given.

You are probably right, but doesn't matter how well you use the material if no one is watching...

Officially out of ideas?

Russell T Davies is back as showrunner.
Back to the era of good characters and goofy stories I guess.

Capaldi and Whittaker just didn't have the right show runner, they both had their moments but both let down by scripts and direction. It needs a safe hand to get it back!

When did 'Showrunner' become a thing?
I don't recall hearing it as a title or position say over ten years ago.
I really enjoyed Capaldi
and Missy.

Missy was awesome, so annoyed they killed her off! Not that killing The Master in the past has stopped anything. :)

It's a very American term isn't it! I'm not sure what things it is used for over here other than Doctor Who.

Feels like a step backwards, but so long as he can deliver (either himself or commissioned writers) good scripts then I don't care...
