DR WHO, scourge of the Daleks, could face extermination because of his "massive sexism". The BBC cult show was criticised yesterday for its male dominance.
The Time Lord's girl assistants were "insultingly" portrayed as scantily-clad, screaming cowards, said a report in a fan magazine.
The sci-fi hero was last played by Sylvester McCoy.
