Jodie Whittaker shares her feelings about becoming the Thirteenth Doctor… She says:
“Chris [Chibnall] wouldn’t have cast me as the Doctor because he wanted me to repeat anything that had gone before.
And I think as a fan you don’t want to watch something that’s an imitation of something that’s gone before.
Or what would be the point of recasting?”
