Rejected petition Make Danny Dyer the new Doctor Who

As Peter Capaldi moves away from playing the Doctor and the search begins for his replacement I would like to suggest that we cut the wheat from the chaff and move directly to the only realistic choice. Danny Dyer.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The BBC is an independent body governed by a Royal Charter. Under the terms of that Charter, the BBC is operationally and editorially independent of government and there is no provision for the government to intervene in the BBC’s day-to-day operations.

You might like to write to the BBC to make this suggestion.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
