As mentioned by Deanjam in the "RTD back for Doctor Who" thread, but probably more relevant to this one, all content on the official Doctor Who social media channels - Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram (and possibly others that I'm not aware of) - appears to have been deleted. Some sort of guerilla publicity stunt for the new series?

Alberon

Will anyone but a few nerds notice?

Probably a good chance of a start date announced this weekend.

Yeah can only presume it's Chibnall's idea of generating publicity, the main indicator being it's utterly shit.

#WhereIsDoctorWho is trending. I presume it's a reaction, and not the start in itself of some oh-so-clever marketing campaign (that'd be #WhereIsTheDoctor surely?)...

It's so pointless. Any remaining interest in a third Chibnall series was wiped out the second RTD was announced to be returning.

I haven't seen a publicity stunt for a TV show this pathetic since they sent a curry into "space" for Series X of Red Dwarf.

McDead

If you google Doctor Who, all the Doctors bar Jodie are listed as "Fugitive Doctor". This and the missing social media accounts lead me to believe that there's going to be some plot point where the Time Lords (or the Doctor) wipe every trace of her from time and space. I think it's kind of neat, honestly (though I still won't be watching).

Mister Six

Don't give a fuck so long as they retcon the Timeless Child out of existence.

The Doctor going back to being am unheard-of mystery to the universe would be nice. Moffat toyed with the idea for a couple of episodes before defaulting back to big speeches and the Daleks shitting themselves whenever they see the DOC-TORR, which was a bit of a shame.

Yeah, wonder what the hell that's all about? Some prepping for the 60th, perhaps?

It will be Chibnall retconning it, though. Which at this point could be even worse than leaving it for someone more talented to retcon.

"Fugitive Doctor" was Doctor Ruth. And this presumably means every subsequent incarnation is also considered a fugitive by the Time Lords.

Anyway, there's this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/2mG0XJnLCtz7tdBGRH0vWM3/have-you-seen-the-aliens-terms-and-conditions

Eh, what? On every Google search return from every website everywhere?

Unless RTD has been a guiding hand.

It's the sort-of general "Cast List" that appears near the top of the results. Never been clear on where it pulls from, or who's responsible for maintaining it.

Oh yeah. Down in the side bar there, got it.

Looking forward to reading the Wikipedia article about why Whittaker happens not to be a fugitive doctor
