The Internet Reacts to BBC News Writer stating Peter Capaldi “certainly wasn’t universally loved.”

Written with contributions from @doc_in_the_box

The internet was in an uproar over the comment made by Entertainment and Arts Reporter for BBC News, Ian Youngs, in his post titled “How will the first female Doctor shake things up?”

“And what a great way to refresh a franchise, especially after four years of Peter Capaldi, who certainly wasn’t universally loved.”

Fans across the world are more than excited for Jodie Whittaker and her debut as The Doctor. What should have been a day of full celebration for the Thirteenth Doctor’s red carpet premier in Sheffield was left bittersweet with fans feeling betrayed by the network they so love. And although we know everyone has their own unique taste in Doctors, the Internet made sure to let Mr. Youngs know just how they felt about Peter Capaldi! The hashtag #TheUniverseLovesPeterCapaldi started to trend across all social media platforms with photos, fond memories, memes, cosplay photos, and more in defense of the previous Doctor.

Me when a BBC reporter dares to imply Peter Capaldi damaged the show because he wasn’t “universally loved.”

One thought on “The Internet Reacts to BBC News Writer stating Peter Capaldi “certainly wasn’t universally loved.”

  1. I loved Capaldi as The Doctor. I hated the SJW/PC scripts that were full of Leftist/Socialist/Feminist/Man-hating propaganda. The stories for the last two seasons were horrible. The only thing worth watching was Capaldi trying to make chicken soup out of chicken $hit.
