Mark Gattis would be my inside runner.
He's definitely the most likely, although I'd love them to try to get Neil Gaiman.

Yes, but it has never been as obnoxiously over the top as it has been since Whitaker became the Doctor.
The Rosa Parks episode was brilliant imo and one the whole world needed at the time (and arguably more relevant than ever)
If Social Media was around back then, The Pertwee/Barry Letts/Terrance Dicks era would have copped a lot of heat for dealing with social and economic issues that faced the world, esp Britain at the time.
Although granted it's hard to imagine many of Chibnall's PC episodes ever being as loved by fandom than say The Curse of Peladon or The Green Death
Don’t think so at all.The "PC Crap" has been with the show since inception..
What they need to stay away from is hamfisted storylines and treating viewers like their idiots who need the morals of the story spelled out..
Although with posts like the above perhaps people genuinely didn't know the point of the stories they were watching.
Don’t think so at all.
Peter Miles (Nyder) wearing an iron cross in Genesis of the daleks
Bernard Horsfall (Goth) holding Tom Baker’s head under water in The deadly assassin
Use of Caucasian actors to play Chinese characters in The Talons of Weng Chiang. Various non PC references to Chinese characters also.
Philip Madoc (Solon) blowing the guts out of Condo in the Brain of Morbius.
Have you listened to the Tom baker audiobook?Probably too big of a name to be considered now..
Eccleston was probably the only 'household' name to be cast as The Doctor since Peter Davison (Tom Baker was constriction site worker and part-time actor when Barry Letts cast him.
Maybe I read your post wrong. Are you saying that Dr Who has had PC undertones since inception?What odd references to cite when the first is a pretty clear example of politics being evoked in a Doctor Who story, and the third being a product of its time not something that was controversial back then.

Ok, got you. I thought you meant that they tried to push a politically correct agenda.I'm saying Doctor Who has had political themes and morals since inception, yes.
Have you listened to the Tom baker audiobook?
It’s phenomenal. His ability to tell a story is brilliant.No, I read his autobiography a while back, and listened to some of his work for Big Finish Productions and his narration of some his Target Novelizations for BBC Audio (of which I am a big collector of)

No haven’t read it.Have you read his Doctor Who novel? The Scratchmen I think it's called.
No haven’t read it.
He used to drink (heavily) at the colony room in SOHO. Kicked around with some interesting characters. Francis Bacon for one.
Harry was great. One of the best scenes is in Revenge of the cybermen;Very good and fun book, Fourth Doctor, Sarah and Harry, but being written by him gives it an extra something. There's a scene where he meets future Doctors too which is quite fun.
