Though some accused the producers for ruining the series, others were excited about the change. Colin Baker, who held the role of the Doctor between 1984 and 1986, said he found it "very sad" that the fans of the show were criticizing the casting of the actress. Whittaker said, "It feels completely overwhelming, as a feminist, as a woman, as an actor, as a human, as someone who wants to continually push themselves and challenge themselves, and not be boxed in by what you're told you can and can't be." She also told the viewers, not to be afraid of her gender and accept this change.
