He's going to have a field day with the overnight ratings. Something along
the lines of 2.2 million. At least he won't be able to call for Chibnall and
Whittaker to be sacked. But he also won't put the ratings into any sort of
context. I haven't watched the show yet - I was busy yesterday. But I expect
it'll be a bit of fun when I do. Yads and Aggy both watched it, and they
both knew they were going to hate it. But then, I live in 2022. They're
still trapped in the seventies. Oh, and I have a life. I'm not sure if they
do...

And it was up against the first week of new Britain’s Got Talent, which had
skipped a year after the huge challenges they faced in 2020. Loathe it or
hate it, BGT is one of the biggest shows on TV and kids love it. 7 and 28
day results will give a better feel for what the viewership really was.

Wasn't great, wasn't crap, just average. To be honest I was expecting more
considering it is part of a series of 'specials'.

Yes Tim, they could. No Tim, they won't.

Even if they did manage to contact RTD, he's got better things to do than
wade through their gibberish. And even if he worked out any of their
demands, he'd completely ignore them. He's going to do it his way, not
theirs. And it's not something Peter Capaldi would do, either. Apart from
the fact he's got no desire to return to Doctor Who, he's got absolutely no
problem with the Doctor being played by a woman.

Tell you what though, Tim - if it's something you want so desperately, why
don't you write to RTD yourself?

Why are you struggling with this so much, Tim? RTD doesn't want Capaldi to
redo the regeneration scene. Capaldi doesn't want to redo the regeneration
scene. Capaldi was the 12th Doctor. Whittaker is the 13th Doctor. The next
actor will be the 14th Doctor, whether you like it or not.

"Legend of the Sea Devils" is probably the most un-special of all the
'specials' so far it must be said. So I also thought it was an
average episode... it was a bit of a fun romp though.

The new 'pirate' Sea Devil's are kind of cool but I think I prefer
the menace of the originals walking out of the sea. (Maybe if I was
seven year's old again I might have found these versions scary!)

_All_ linear broadcast TV drama has drastically declining

A couple of examples to set context (the appalling Aggie hates context.
Context destroys his arguments).

* The BBC’s flagship period drama “Gentleman Jack” in its first season
opener a couple of years ago (an unknown show, not an already perceived
success) got 5.1m overnight. It returned for a second season on April 10th.
It got 3.1m viewers overnight. But on the 17th, the second episode got
2.3m, just barely edging Doctor Who into third place drama for the day.

* ITV ran a new 6 part adaptation of The Ipcress File recently in a prime
drama slot. The final episode pulled in 1.9m viewers.

* The BBC’s highly acclaimed divorce lawyer drama The Split, back for its
third season, is drawing in 2.1m per episode, down from 3.5m for season 2
in 2020.

Aggie will tell you these aren’t the same kinds of show as Doctor Who. And
he’s right - they aren’t. They’re the sort of show that BBC and ITV get
their best numbers with - the massive successes. And those best numbers are
tiny compared to days gone by.

In terms of overnight viewers in years gone by, it’s true that “Sea Devils”
at 2.2m overnight would be considered to be doing poorly. But in the
landscape of British broadcast TV in 2022, it’s still a solid performer.
Probably doing a little better than I would say it deserves at present, to
be honest.

Why? The current "Doctor Who" Executive Producer is being replaced.
What would an emergency meeting decide to do, sack Chibnall?!!!

A whole emergency meeting just to discuss one show
that the BBC doesn’t even care about and which will be
getting a major makeover in a couple of episodes anyway?

It doesn’t seem likely to me.

Don’t forget, the BBC is a bureaucratic organisation. Even
if there were an emergency meeting, the decision would
be “just wait until after that major makeover and see if
it improves things.”

RTD will take the show in the direction that he wants, and he'll very
probably just ignore a lot of what went on during Jodie's era... the
14th Doctor will be a new era for the show.

Don't be stupid! The next "Doctor Who" episode will [probably] end with
the regeneration of the 13th Doctor. So logically, if that episode was
cancelled you'd be stuck with the 13th Doctor forever!!!

Only the two dimwits of RADW would think that was a "sensible"

Do you think the BBC executives care whether the fans
watching are the “respectable” ones or not? Do you think
they care enough to hold a special emergency meeting
about it?

And since you’ve been watching the show all this time,
does that make you a non-respectable suckup?

He isn’t a BBC executive. We were discussing what BBC

The executives don’t know or even care about what Yads

He could, but he won't. Why would he? What practical results would

What everyone should be aware of here is the context. And the context is
that the BBC has transferred day to day creative control of Doctor Who to
Bad Wolf Studios (now owned by Sony) and commissioned a 60th Anniversary
show and a season of shows (length unknown) from them, under the eye of
Russell T Davies, for 2023-2024. So the BBC no Ionger has its eye on the
ball as far as Doctor Who is concerned. Chris Chibnall has delivered all
his content for them (with the possible exception of some post production
work on Jodie’s final episode).

Bad Wolf may (or may not) provide a finish to the regeneration scene which
would reveal the identity of the next Doctor. But the show is certainly
going to get a soft reboot, with new music, new TARDIS interior, new look
and feel. So all we can do is wait.

But the BBC are done caring. If series 14 delivers what they want from it -
for the money the BBC is prepared to provide - then the show will go on. If
the BBC then no longer want the show, and are happy to take their cut on
the IP alone, then Bad Wolf will shop it around and the show will go on on
one of the global streaming services, and maybe the BBC will take it on a
cheap second run, a la the deal BBCA made with Amazon for Good Omens.

I fed it into DuckDuckGo and it came up with lots of articles about
"Piers Wenger" and a lot of Photos of "Peris Wenger", but, when you
