About time there was a back lash.

I originally trained to be a infant school teacher and I was disgusted by some of the insinuation about a male wanting to be an infant school teacher. Despite the fact that in inner city schools there are few positive male role models.

I ended up leaving the profession (that not being the only factor I should mention!)

Papers like the Daily Mail and NOTW are some of the worse offenders in this. Some people are actually genuinely nice and shouldn't be looked on with suspicion.

However we should be vigilant and protect our children from those elements in society but we should take a measured approach.

Unfortunately there are large swathes of people that believe everything they read and watch and these are the people that are most dangerous.

Making sweeping statements about very complex issues.

Anyway thats my rant for the day!

View it for what it is.

Dr Who seriously suffers from Star Wars syndrome. I love Star Wars but the majority of people hate it and Jar Jar Binks but the kids love it as they were the intended audience.

The number of times we apply adult ideology and subtext to something which is aimed at kids and is family entertainment.

Dr Who like many shows has its ups and downs and but I go with it and enjoy it for what it is. I have a film degree and deconstruct to a subatomic level but what's the point in that? (Please refer to the Simpson's episode staring Poochy the dog!!)

RTD did a good job and was part of a wider team, who also did a good job. David Tennant is regarded by many as the most popular doctor so that says something about the how the show has developed.

Moffat is an excellent choice to take over and I think Blink was brilliant for its simplicity. It didn't have to have amazing special effects is was just brilliantly executed, but to keep the show going it does need to go to a new direction and maybe explore the time wars more.

There is a dark side to the doctor, but then again if we go too dark it stops being family entertainment which whether we like it or not is its intended audience.

Lets not view the show the adult eyes but appreciate it for what its worth.

At the end of a day a cake is sometimes a cake! (Special browney points if you know where the reference is from!!)
