New Doctor Who Played by Jodie Whittaker

Jodie Whittaker is married to an American actor named Christian Contreras; they had their first son in 2015. She also had a nephew named Harry Whittaker who had Down Syndrome and played Leo Goskirk, a character who had the same condition, in Emmerdale before his death in 2014 at age 3.

Jodie is known for being in many films and TV programs today; from St Trinians 1&2, to Hello Carter, Spike Island, and many more films, to TV programs such as Tess of the D’Urbervillies, Marchlands, and last but not least Broadchurch.

She has made a name for herself over the years with lots of films and TV programs and is now making more of a household name for herself as the first women Doctor, and being the 13th Doctor is going to be one good showing.

My Thoughts About Jodie Whittaker as the First Female Doctor.

As I heard the announcement, I was like no way, and when I saw her face I was like definitely no way. Jodie is an amazing actress all the way; I loved her work in Broadchurch, she brought a mother who had lost a child to life, making viewers feel her betrayal by someone she had thought she could trust.

I think personally she will bring back the fun, the excitement, the laughter, and will make every cliff hanger work well. We need someone new, vibrant, fun, active, and not so serious. I found Peter Capaldi so boring, dry, and not fun at all. I gave up watching it since Matt Smith left; Peter made me think of Christopher Eccleston, who was so boring and dull, until they brought in Jack Borrowman half way through and I was like hello sexy. Then David Tennant won me over to the end of his time; then Matt Smith won me over again but I couldn't stand his two side kicks at the time, Rory and Amy, they got way too annoying towards the end of their run.

Please don't make Jodie have an annoying sidekick who will put me off watching the show; everyone has their opinion on the doctors and who should play the character. In the world of today, we have to bring in someone new and different. In this day in age, we can't live in the world of sexism; saying that one character has to be played by a man all the time, is like saying women can't do a man’s job.

Yes, Jodie has to prove that she can portray the character of the Doctor. However, remember in Victorian times, Elizabethan times and Tudor times men dressed up in women's clothes to portray the characters of women. We have come a long way since then, but we still have a long way to go to have equal rights to men in many areas. It's just nice to see a female playing the Doctor instead of a male Doctor having a female sidekick who always has a crush on the Doctor and needs saving all the time.

It just gets too, what's the word I'm looking for, yes, that's it: cheesy. Because at the end of the day women can be heroes too and play parts that have been played by men for so many years. Just stop being so judgemental about things like that. Just get over yourselves, people. Every time there's a new Doctor coming we ask if they'll be able to pull it off. Will they fill the big shoes from the person before them? What is the stamp on the Doctor?

Just give her some credit guys and give it a try. You never know, she may impress you and you might fall in love with her.
