Obviously the bad feelings from viewers about the new series which has 
seen the lost of 4/5 of the audience have now rubbed off onto the 
classic series thanks to the behaviour of Ncuti Gatwa, the perversion of 
the Timeless Child Monster, and the desire by the show runners to allow 
the show to be used to sexually groom children.

Why would Britbox and ITV want to throw their money down the toilet? 
You'd think the BBC would want all episodes on as many platforms as 
exist. Now for Disney to join them and put an end to The Adventures of 
the Timeless Child Monster.
