Christian Cawley and James McLean discuss the recent media reports that Ncuti Gatwa has quit Doctor Who. This is the full-length discussion, which also features exchanges on accusations of &quot;wokery&quot; across the show&#39;s recent storylines, Disney&#39;s involvement, and how the BBC still doesn&#39;t seem to know who the show&#39;s audience is.

Let us know what you think about all of this.
