They announced that a year ago and it doesn't even air until October???
What is the hold up?

(Note: I am not a Doctor Who fan.)

Well about 2 months.

Female Doctor* The character is named the Doctor the show is named Doctor Who.

Everything has to be filmed and post production has to be done as well.

There are several credits throughout the series' history where the character is credited as "doctor who" including post reboot.

Davies, and I think he was way better than Moffat.

I wonder if TC has ever watched a single season of the reboot Doctor Who. Long delays from the end of one Doctor to the beginning of the next are pretty much par for the course.

Of course, part of that is the BBC's insanely slow production schedule.

That is legit weird considering an episode even took the piss out of the whole Doctor Who being his name misconception in during the first reboot series either way the characters name is simply the Doctor.

Which episode are you referring to?

Anyway, It's been stated repeatedly in the reboot that The Doctor is the name he chose for himself. In season 10 Missy flat-out states his name is Doctor Who, but this is almost certainly a lie. The point is, the show is deliberately and consistently ambiguous about his name.

Then in "Twice Upon a Time", they had the First Doctor joke about calling himself Doctor Who because he'd tell people "I'm The Doctor" and they'd say "Doctor who?".

Which is actually a callback to the show's very first episode, when Ian confronted The Doctor; only knowing him as Susan's grandfather, he called him "Doctor Foreman", to which The Doctor replied "Doctor who?"

Dr. Who (and British TV in general) is really fucking weird about how the schedule and hype TV. They do things way in advance, have shorter 'series', and have arbitrary gaps between seasons. As far as I know, it's always been like that.

"Doctor Who?"

"Nope just the Doctor"

I kind of lost interest in Doctor Who after Tennant left the show.

I did see a few episodes with Matt Smith, but that's just because they happened to be on when there was nothing preferable on.

This conversation happens frequently on the show. It's not "taking the piss out of a misconception," it's playing up the titular joke.

RTD was good at the low-key episodes, but his big finales and myth arcs tended to be messy as hell.
