THIS IS A PETITION FOR FANS OF DR WHO AND OTHERS TO LET THE BBC KNOW THAT SIGOURNEY WEAVER IS A PERFECT CHOICE AS THE NEXT DOCTOR.

FIRSTLY SHE HAS ESSENTIALLY THE HIGHEST PEDIGREE AS A SCI-FI ACTOR AND DESERVES THE OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME THE FIRST FEMALE DR.

SECONDLY SIGOURNEY IS AT AN AGE WHERE TRADITION WITHIN BOTH FILM AND TELEVISION DICTATES SHE SHOULD BE IGNORED, YET SUCH A HIGHLY REGARDED ACTRESS SHOULD STILL BE IN HIGH DEMAND ACROSS EVERY MEDIUM.

FINALLY, THE DR (ALTHOUGH ALWAYS A WHITE MALE) IS REGENERATED, THEREFORE CASTING WISE, THE CHARACTER IS FITTING TO BE A FEMALE EVENTUALLY, AND WHY NOT NOW.

SIGOURNEY WEAVER IS MY CHOICE TO MAKE THE SHOW WATCHABLE AGAIN.

ALSO, IN A TIME OF HUGE SHIFTS TO ALIENATE WOMEN ACROSS THE WORLD LETS PLEASE STICK ONE TO THE MAN, AS SUCH.
