Bowlestrek

Bowlestrek is a YouTuber whose work focusses on reviewing and discussing television and film.

He frequently reviews Doctor Who episodes, and comments on news about the show. Bowlestrek is opposed to the BBC's political agenda, and considers the current show-runner, Chris Chibnall, who Bowlestrek frequently refers to as "Chibs the idiot", to have irreparably destroyed the show by trying to be progressive. Bowlestrek astutely highlights this abhorrent agenda, for example, by noting that the British Prime Minister in Revolution of the Daleks is "female, of course, as the writers continue their sad attempts at being progressive", seemingly unaware of the allegory for Theresa May, who was the British Prime Minister at the time of filming said episode.

Bowlestrek has been plagued by accusations of racism, and many (though not all) of these accusations are true. For example, Bowlestrek demonstrates in his video Doctor Who's Ryan Revisits Flawed Arguments that he sympathises with the racism not only faced by the BAME community, but also the White community, noting that the Doctor Who episode Rosa "took one form of racism and replaced it with another form of racism". In the same video, Bowlestrek also points out that Tosin Cole, a lead actor in Doctor Who, "had the advantage of the BBC Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, a policy whose sole purpose is to diminish straight white males within the BBC at every level".

He is clearly biased against the Jodie Whittaker and Chris Chibnall era of the show, finding something in nearly every story of that era which he perceives as having a liberal agenda.
