“But this program also has no comparison. It is part of all our vocabularies: the Tardis, Daleks, Exterminate! And the doctor of everyone until then was a white man, “he added.” They are very different actors, but they all fit a specific mold, and not. “
Whittaker also worried that the negative response to his performance as a character, performed by various actors since the program’s debut in 1963, would have a negative impact on other performers who could get the launch in the future.
