Wrong Dave... as usual.

Please reference a post where myself, or anyone here actually, has
been pro-Chibnall... You can't, as it's just another one of your
delusions.

Just because we don't agree with your misogynist nonsense and one
line gobbledygook I don't recall anyone here saying that the Chris
Chibnall era of Doctor Who was brilliant!

I would prefer Jodie Whittaker's Doctor above Sylvester McCoy's
though...

Yes Dave, well done... but we all know there was budget
restrictions. Nobody is saying there wasn't. Every era of Doctor Who
has had budget constraints of some sort. Even now with Disney money
I'm sure RTD can't do everything that he would like to do.

So yes, the reduced budget was a contributory factor, one of many,
but it wasn't the sole reason the Sylvester McCoy era of Doctor Who
was not well received by the British public.

DBurns? Nope. But if he ever returns I'm sure he'd agree with me!

I'll go with semi-sabotaged... but Doctor Who had been in decline
for a few years before McCoy came in. Some would say since Tom Baker
left even. So the writing was on the wall.

The cancellation of �Doctor Who� in 1989 was due to a combination of factors:

1) Declining Popularity: The show was trapped in a vicious circle of declining
popularity amongst viewers and neglect from the powers-that-be at the
BBC.

2) Budget Constraints: Despite sustained periods of great success, interviews
with cast and crew in more recent years have revealed that the fate of
the series was often uncertain, with deadlines and budget restrictions
causing constant issues.

3) Poor Reception: According to an internal BBC document that has since
surfaced, McCoy�s Doctor, his assistant Mel and Doctor Who�s stories
were also all scoring abysmally with test audiences.

4) Disdain from BBC Executives: Three senior BBC executives generally share
the blame for Doctor Who�s cancellation - Peter Cregeen, the BBC�s Head
of Series in 1989, who ultimately made the decision to drop the show;
Jonathan Powell, then Controller of BBC One; and Michael Grade, who had
preceded Powell in BBC One�s top job. Both Powell�s and Grade�s disdain
for Doctor Who was well documented.

It�s important to note that despite these challenges, the show made a
triumphant return in 2005 and has since transformed into a global sensation.
