Peter Eng:
"Doctor Who is going nowhere"

I know what you meant, but please consider your words carefully!

(I throw out lines like that without thinking. The only reason I remembered it is that it got a react today, from a Peter Capaldi. The real thing? A clever fake? I will never know.)

Fsk.

I genuinely thought that they were going to let it die and put it on another well-deserved hiatus. This just confirms what I was already afraid of- that the beeb is going to keep running Doctor Who into the ground until it's a pathetic husk of its former self. My 30 years of being a fan of it is going to wither as I watch my favorite show in the world be absolutely beaten to death.

Why couldn't they have just let it stop?

Oh good. If Disney's going to drag their feet over contracting, it's nice to hear this.
