    The BBC is old hat
    They'll try to get some sort of fangled 'censorship' clause into law, state the the BBC monitors YouTube and the like and it needs Ofcom approval and so the license fee is to protect the children - the UN will get involved, historians will rejoice that they finally get to jot down a massive guffaw in their books that won't get challenged and we'll then have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over

      What will happen to Doctor Who? Tharries and his chums have managed to save it from obliteration…is it now again under threat?!
      Whew it’s a right old rollercoaster…

        I heard Christopher Eccleston is going to get the top job at the Beeb and fire a few people BtM
        Although I don't know why an Aussie Miner would want the job

          Well Tharries’s latest bit of click bait is that Paul McGann is coming back. None of his rumours come true. I wish he would stop getting so over excited over every teeny bit of rumour that he hears.
          He even said that Doctor Who was dead and buried but it wasn’t!

            Is he still about?
            I don't even notice the lack of Tharries in any of my feeds
            I still check out Ellie though, she's lovely
            Well, apparently they're going to "Do a Tennant" and have everybody twiddle their thumbs while RTD and the Beeb figure out how to make a show that people will actually watch - only a year and two weeks to go until we figure out why Jackie Tyler's daughter is in the Tardis and wearing what Shooty was when he noped-the-fuzz out
            I'm guessing they'll go back to Jodie, and have her phasing into Tennant being a sort of turning point moment that happened, but also didn't. That would explain why Tennant wasn't wearing her garb when he 'became' "14".
            Best bet they could do is have Hurt's Doctor actually use The Moment and destroy everything, Eccelston's Doctor's regret while being inside the Time Vortex somehow alters reality and Rose/The Moment/Bad Wolf somehow have to create a splintered reality that eventually joins back into 'real' "Reality" and everything from Tennant onwards is some sort of Usborne Puzzle Adventure (But down the wrong set of pages - Clara Osborn being the clue in there). An older, knackered Ecclescake returns and goes, "Well then, that's that sorted" - cut to opening theme

              Well that all sounds very complex. How about just sacking off all that continuity with a brand new Doctor (such as Danny Dyer) and just having fresh fun new adventures free from all that pesky baggage?

                The idea that is all pesky baggage BtM
                It keeps 'fans' of that era sweet but gets back to the fun romps that made the show in the first place
                We still get the farting aliens though, and Captain Jack, so it's not all sunshine and roses

                  Well…I trust you to know what you’re doing. I just hope that you know what you’ve let yourself in for with taking on that show. It is a poisoned chalice and I would not wish it on my worst enemy!

                    Nah, it'll be alright BtM. Just wait until Bobby gets here and I can tell him all about it - he'll love it!
                    It's just a matter of herding the flock to the gates and then letting the sun set on them before the slaughter tomorrow

                      Doesn't matter. The Licence Fee is optional. I have several British friends who don’t pay and nothing comes of it.
