The Politics of Doctor Who
, Television">
Well, I'm interested anyway:
In general, we noticed the Doctor is more likely to overthrow the
government on alien planets, or in the distant future. When he visits
present-day Earth or our history, he's an arch-conservative. (He ousts
Harriet Jones as prime minister of England in "The Christmas Invasion,"
but that's not the same as destroying the whole government.) Also, the
Doctor acted out way more during the Thatcher era than any other
period. During the Blair/Gordon Brown eras, he's been quite
well-behaved.
