Totally agree. I've stopped watching it now.

Not to mention of course the obvious pc choice of the doctor himself (oh, sorry, herself now).
We await the inevitable gay/trans black female doctor
In fact, they've already gone part of the way with that mystery black woman
Rewriting/retro fitting the whole Doctor/Timelord concept and back story to suit the latest agenda's.

Whilst I'm all for equality etc, the BBC is now trying to brainwash people. You're right, it isn't even subtle. They stick black issues/people into programmes for the sake of it, to a point where they are overrepresented.
It's counter productive to what they are trying to achieve.
It's not just Dr Who, Radio 4 is absolutely shocking now. Every genre of programming from plays to religious programmes, from comedy to history is all black, black, black. I'm sick of hearing about it now.
Yes, in the 70's they were underrepresented or always portrayed in a negative light, then things became more balanced, but it's absolutely ridiculous now.
I find the odd programme about it interesting, but not to this level
Would I like to see more disabled people on TV/radio, yes, but not being shoehorned into every damn programme for the sake of it until the point where people resent it.
As usual, it's probably not black people doing this and if you complain you're labelled 'racist' to shut you up because they know this will work with most folk these days.
I actually think that the next Dr will be a woman as to not do this would make them look like what they did was a mistake.
To me, the doctor will always be male, just like Father Christmas. Conversely, Mother Nature will never be male.
