Doctor who hot take incoming. A lot of people are like, “Doctor who has always been left where the heck did all these conservative complainers come from? I bet they’re fake fans,” and while I do understand this sentiment, I also think new who does have a more conservative bent in some areas than classic. This is an American perspective so take it with a grain of salt.
In s2’s tooth and claw, the Doctor and Rose, with help from Queen Victoria herself, fight a werewolf in one of the queen’s castles in Scotland and the Koh-i-Noor diamond saves the day.

Meanwhile in classic who s16’s the Pirate Planet, the Doctor, Romana, and K9 find a planet that travels across the universe pillaging and capturing other worlds all to prop up/extend a nearly dead queen’s life and increase her power. They save the day by destroying the bridge, as in what is controlling and allowing the planet to move like this, and the queen herself.

In new who, the spoils of colonialism and imperialism save the day.
In classic who, destroying the mechanisms of colonialism and imperialism saves the day.
I’m not saying this was an intentional shift. But it is noticeable and why I think some conservatives have gravitated towards New Who specifically.
And I realize the counter argument is that this is s2, there are 11 other seasons you can look at where they grew past this. But based on what I’ve seen so far I’m honestly not sure about that. (I just finished Hellbent) But that’s a whole other argument that can be saved for another time. My point is that in new who’s most popular era, the 10th Doctor, this is the subtext, intentional or not. And I am not trying to say classic who is some bastion of leftism. My point is more there is a nationalist bent in new who. So it’s not a stretch to see why it’s got conservative fans.

Why didn’t anyone tell me the Highlanders had one of the best one off Who characters?
Tumblr media
This dude, Lt. Algernon Ffinch, is just a lot of fun. You feel bad (or at least I did) for how many times Polly keeps ruining his day, stealing all his money, blackmailing him, and even Ben has him at knifepoint towards the end. Then the dude finds out he’s been helping some this greedy asshole prison warden trick/sell the rebels he’s been fighting into slavery and just switched sides. Even lets the tardis team leave INCLUDING JAMIE!
Granted it’s sorta implied he did it cuz he liked Polly too, but that just means that despite her constantly treating him like crap, once he figured out why she was doing all of this he started to like her. Also it’s not like he proposes or anything. She just gives him a kiss on the cheek and he leaves. Never to be heard from again.
But I’ll remember him.
Idk I get James Norrington but more of a doofus vibes from this guy and so I can’t help but like him. Overall fun side character I wanted to highlight.

Started watching classic who recently and I'm a big fan of how these two are always clinging on one another. I want Donna to find out about this somehow maybe a meta crisis remnant manifest in a dream. "It was never that far from the surface mate, I always thought-"

tf2 will get the much-needed major update but only if the minimum wage becomes 950% higher than $7.25.
