Chris Chibnall’s era on Doctor Who, led by his frontwoman Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor, wasn’t exactly the most popular among fans, and now that Russell T Davies has taken over as the showrunner once more, some people feel that Whittaker’s time is being erased from the series’ history — here is what Davies has to say about that.In its 60-year run, Doctor Who has been handed from showrunner to showrunner quite a few times, but the fandom believes that the last one might have been just the worst of them all. Chibnall has sparked a lot of controversy, particularly with his Timeless Child story arc that has practically rewritten the show’s entire history, and viewers think that Doctor Who is now trying to shift the focus away from Whittaker’s Doctor and everything associated with her. In the Showrunner segment of the latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine, Davies reacted to these rumors in the most Doctor Who fitting fashion.The erasure claims are based on the fact that Whittaker’s Doctor is nowhere to be seen in the promo materials for Doctor Who’s 60th-anniversary specials, including magazine covers, and that the Thirteenth Doctor’s regeneration scene has ended with David Tennant’s Fourteenth Doctor magically dressed in his own suit, so Whittaker’s costume will probably not be spotted in the next episode.RELATED: Doctor Who Rumor: One Whovian A-Lister Is Up for a Guest Role Alongside Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor
