Fans pysched about the first female Doctor,Watch She is Hungry For Men Online Jodie Whittaker, think she should make the same amount as her male predecessor, Peter Capaldi, but whether that's indeed the case is still unclear.
BBC Director-General Lord Tony Hall has said two things so far on the subject: that he "would hope" they got paid the same and then that there would be "parity" between the two actor's pay. So which is which? We just don't know for sure yet as Whittaker's pay packet for the next season of Doctor Whohasn't been released and her representatives are staying mum.
SEE ALSO: Merriam-Webster had the perfect response for internet trolls after the 'Doctor Who' announcementHall was firm in his statement to the Evening Standard, stating: "Yes, there is parity for the same amount of work," adding that he's a fan of the show and excited for a female Doctor.
But he was more wishy-washy with Channel 5 News. According to the Express, he told the station: "I would hope that the new female Doctor Who, that Jodie, gets the same as Peter and I'm hugely looking forward to her taking over at Christmas."
He added that he didn't know what Capaldi earned as the Doctor.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Capaldi earned between $260,000 and $325,000 (£337,000 and £422,000) in 2016.
Equal pay for Whittaker would be sure to please fans of Doctor Who, who learned this weekend that there would be a female Doctor for the first time in the show's history.
It would also help to quell at least some of the concern that abounded when the BBC released its pay report Wednesday.
The report revealed immense disparity between men and women, and most notably, showed Top Gearhost and Radio 2 DJ Chris Evans raking in about $2.9 million (£2.2 million) in 2016. Claudia Winkleman, the best-paid female BBC star, netted between $584,000 and $649,000 (£450,000 and £500,000).
