David Tennant is to stand down as Doctor Who, after becoming one of the most popular Time Lords in the history of the BBC science fiction show.

Gee I wonder why. He was phenomenal!

He's quitting too early.

Yeah but he doesn't want to end up being type cast and also he is doing very well on stage doing Hamlet.

His facial expressions and overall behavior and attitude just made him the perfect Doctor. Especially since he wanted to be the Doctor since he was little.

^^^^^^^^ - Just look at his expression! You know something good is going on.

David Tennant was a decent doctor - right up there with some of the classics. It'll be a shame to watch him go.

i would be so bold as to say that he is the best docto:p:p but then again, i havent seen the old doctors.

sad though, but 2010 is long way off.

NO!!!!!!!!!!! Tennant was the best Doctor by far! it will be shame to see him go :( still, all good things must come to an end I suppose. Let's hope the 11th Doctor is a worthy replacement...

EDIT: To be fair though, when the new series first started with Christopher Eccleston, I quite liked him and was annoyed when I found out he was leaving after only a season and then his replacement turned out to be a far better Doctor. Perhaps the same will happen again (maybe).

Being fairly old in actual years I always thought Tom Baker was THE best Doctor ever (possibly due to me actually meeting him and K9 and him sharing his jelly beans/babies).

That was until Tennant came along and I am now afraid that Mr Baker is the #2 all time best.

Shame he is leaving, but he is leaving on top of his game - people will talk about him at the height of his popularity and not in the 'oh when is he leaving' type way.

Shame though, he was spot on.

True he will be missed.

However, hopefully moffat might be able to speed up production. ?It takes bloody ages to produce Dr Who and?some of?the scripts seem?rather?corny, hopefully Moffat can?work?some?magic?and pick writers that can write scary stories yet solid in acting and quality.

    • Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups

      By zikalify · Posted

      Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups by Paul Hill Fears that increasing government control of social media risks regulatory capture by the biggest social media firms were raised again recently. Bluesky’s chief operating officer said in an interview that social media bans for children and tighter regulations for social media firms risk creating a world where there are only a few social media platforms run by companies with the deepest pockets. Regulations on social media firms have been very lax since they appeared for mainstream users in the 2000’s. This gave Meta, Snapchat, and Google time to build up their user bases and get entrenched, with Meta being the most successful. Now that Meta has succeeded, it has been attempting regulatory capture. By pushing for more regulations of social media, Meta hopes to make it more difficult for rivals to challenge it. For its part, it doesn’t need to worry about the cost of regulation because it has a lot of money to spend, whereas startups do not. Speaking to CNBC, Rose Wang, Bluesky’s chief operating officer, said: “I support the protection and the safety of youth, the question that we have then is at what cost, because essentially what I’m scared of is in the long term, we’re headed to a world where there’s about three to five platforms, and extreme heavy regulation of those platforms, and basically the whole compliance teams of these platforms are 10 times the size of our entire team. So, basically, we’re living in a world where it’s almost impossible for smaller entrants to come in and build healthier spaces. These platforms have led to a place where the bottom line is the thing that drives what they do... so I understand why governments have to step in and regulate, because the platforms have done nothing right.” She said that while she is not against regulation, there needs to be more channels between the small to mid-sized players and regulators to help protect them. She says that big tech players, on the other hand, “who we know are circumventing regulation,” need to be regulated. Essentially, the Bluesky position is one of nuance, rather than absolutes. While Bluesky’s proposal may preserve competition in the social media space, it still doesn’t address the massive privacy implications these age verification measures introduce, such as handing over sensitive identity documents to access age-gated content.
