Doctor Who 'fresh' back then in the 1970's, with no
repeat viewings, videos or internet.
A ten year old child in front of the televison in
1976 isn't going to know or care about established
"facts" that you maintain existed.

A 6 year old child in front of the TV is going to figure out
from the start that the person whose face is on the screen is
the one who is winning. The Doctor lost and died. All the
faces after Tom Baker may as well have been those of Morbius
to the uninitiated.

Says you, because you know the story. I'm not sure a six year
old would actually care about whose faces they were, I was
around ten at the time and I didn't!

 I was fourteen and it was completely obvious on-screen and from the in-show
dialogue that the eleven faces shown going back in time were meant to be
earlier faces of the Doctor in order. And it still is when the scene is
rewatched.

No it isn't. Everything shown on screen is deliberately designed to indicate that the person who is winning the game is the one whose face is shown on screen and that is made to obvious even to a 6 year old. It's fully explained in that exact manner the original script writer himself in his own novelization of his own script.
To anyone watching the episode who has never watched Doctor Who before, and doesn't recognize Pertwee let along Hartnell it's made obvious from the start that when Tom Baker's face is not on the screen then he's losing to Morbius and the intention of the director and original script writer is that all the faces the viewer does not recognize are those generated by Morbius of himself as he appeared in the past and in disguise, since it's clearly not Tom Baker.

Or care that the producers of a TV show can change things to
suit themselves if they want to, like our friend Mr Chibnall
chose to do with Doctor Ruth!

Stop insulting the intelligence of the audience. Even a 6 year
old child knows more about story writing and can write better
Doctor Who episodes than Chris Chibnall.

Hmmm... I'm not sure that's actually correct.

 I’m sure it’s not. Chris Chibnall was never the best writer for Who but
he’s far from the worst, and ridiculous hyperbole about 6 year old children
really doesn’t help the debate.

You think Chibnall can write better than a 6 year old child? Don't make me laugh. Chibnall writes like a child with autism which has never read a book before in its entire life. He doesn't understand characters, he doesn't understand interpersonal relationships, he doesn't understand social interaction, and he doesn't understand romance. Oh, and he doesn't understand science in any way, shape, or form, whatsoever.

 

But I say, right or wrong Chris Chibnall was the showrunner of
Doctor Who so they were his calls to make. A female 13th Doctor
and the Fugitive Doctor are part of the show.

RTD is the Doctor Who showrunner now and what happens with the
15th Doctor (and his companions) are his calls to make. Just as
bigeneration is part of the show now.

Doctor Who ended in 2017 since the character of the main

You missed out the word "for me"!

As in... "Doctor Who ended for me in 2017 since the character of

 Er … it should have been
 “Doctor Who ended for me in 2017 since, in my opinion, the character of the

Doctor Who ended for everyone.

main protagonist stopped being one that I personally was prepared to
recognise as that of the Doctor."

The character of the main protagonist stop being that of the Doctor period.

 Not that Aggie has ever been capable of distinguishing between his opinions
and facts - like many people with mental health issues, he thinks they are
one and the same thing.
 

The fact that the viewership of the show and merchandise sales have totally collapsed demonstrates that I am correct. 10 million viewers down to only 4 million at best is terminal disaster. Only someone that has been brainwashed by the woke propaganda of far left which emanates the same hate filled bigotry as that of Adolf Hilter written in Mein Kampf would think differently.
