She’s getting her outfit in a charity shop – I love it. #DoctorWho

“All of this is new to you and new can be scary.” Low-key calling out all of those reluctant to accept the doctor. #DoctorWho

Wasted opportunity in #DoctorWho. When the nan fell from that crane at the end, Bradley Walsh should’ve said “For you, the chase is over”

I just found myself reassuring my 4 year old daughter that it’s going to be ok because she is the Doctor, and she’s not afraid of anything. #DoctorWho
And now I’ve got a bit of a tear in my eye.

Here’s what I liked most about tonight’s Doctor Who: it didn’t give a shit what I thought. No Daleks, no constant references to its past, not even a TARDIS. Because it’s not for me. I had it for years. Probably time kids had it, I suppose. Jodie is great though.

Must confess getting a guilty kick out of imagining all the Alt right manbabies’ brains exploding.
Hey jerks! Got your heads round the female Doctor thing yet? Wait till you get a load of the Everyone’s Black Or Asian Except Bradley Walsh thing… #DoctorWho— Mitch Deepliest Unhelpfulest Benn 🇪🇺 (@MitchBenn) October 7, 2018
