The first Doctor Who series 11 trailer and lots of Yorkshire accent
I seem to recall fans urging Jodie Whittaker to keep her Yorkshire accent for Doctor Who. I don’t recall having any sort of confirmation from the Beeb as to whether that would happen.

At the start of the year PETA complained about Games Workshop depicting fur on their miniatures. That call must have had some merit as PETA are back to pitch an idea to the geek community again. This time they’ve penned an open letter (PDF) to new showrunner Chris Chibnall to ask for the Doctor to […]
