Yeah, I can imagine the Powers That Be are desperate for a steady captain. It's a flagship show, and the fans are... not happy. Of course the fans are never happy but they are a lot more UNHAPPY than normal. (not surprisingly.)
Fingers crossed. (I'm hoping for Lydia West.) Mmmm. And she's been in two RTD shows. Hmmm. Is she quirky enough? I have only seen her in Dracula (where she was great) but don't know anything about her personally. Jodie was such great casting because she is completely bonkers IRL.

There's grumbling and then there's a large number of people yelling "WTF IS THIS" very loudly. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I do wonder why they thought Chibnall's 'master plan' would go over well.

Lydia's IG seems promising when it comes to quirky but not sure. Jodie IS wonderfully bonkers in real life but they haven't allowed much of that to actually come through on screen, that's the issue. The 13th Doctor is a very safe kind of 'quirky'. ://

I was positively disposed towards the master plan, but I remember it as being a five year plan, which apparently was never going to happen. Esp since in the first year NOTHING happened at all.

And I can't imagine that he'll cast someone white straight & male.
