Look at the first three doctors. William Hartnell was quite a serious, grandfatherly figure, who seems to prefer to think his way through problems. Patrick Troughton was a clown, and often nervous. John Pertwee was a bit of a dandy, capable of a lot of humour and would frequently fight his way out of a problem.
Davison also thinks having a woman Dr. is a naff idea. He got hounded out of social media for having that opinion.
