I got as far as this..

Several of the 23 contributors to the book claim the failure to cast a black or Asian actor as the Doctor demonstrates an overarching racism.

and then I stopped reading.

Same here. Load of shite

Theres never been a black James Bond. Must be racist too.

Well it is science fiction, so Doctor Who can be anything. What about a black transgendered Chinese Jewish lesbian?

How can it be racist when it has a ginger in it.

It's actually been established within the show that Timelords can regenerate into different racial types:

Roots rather more harmful than doctor who. It's invented mythology is at least in part behind the adoption of islam by black gangs in the US, and now here, as a rejection of the slaver's religion Christianity. This is of course grandly ironic as islam was the original and enduring (even to this day) slavers religion in africa. He has whitey raiding inland Africa rather than generally buying slaves from african slavers at the coast, thus helping obscure the real history of that sorry era.

A bit of a digression, but if these busybodies want to nark about tv programmes it would be a better target than dr who!
