Frazer Hines Apparently Not A Fan of “PC Storylines” in Doctor Who

Frazer Hines, better known as classic Doctor Who companion Jamie McCrimmon, has seemingly thrown his hat into the ring over recent criticisms that Doctor Who has become “too PC”.

According to The Sun:

Among those accusing the BBC series of being too politically correct in its retelling of various moments from history is show legend Frazer Hines.

The actor […] said the show has lost its way under new boss Chris Chibnall.

He said: “I’m old fashioned, I don’t want to know about Rosa Parks, I don’t want to know about whether we’d done this we could have changed history and Kennedy might not have been shot. I like bug-eyed monsters. Monster of the week, I want.”

Hines also isn’t fond of single-episode stories: “I loved it when it was episodic. Now it’s all in one, beginning, middle and an end. I liked it when it ended on a Saturday night and then Sunday in the park or on Monday in the school playground you’d be like, ‘What is going to happen? Doctor Who was caught there. Is the monster going to get him?’ Now it’s all wrapped up too quick.”
