I noticed something similar when Nimoy died. The headlines screamed, “Spock is Dead,” but of course Spock has been played by at last two other actors who are very much alive. The character didn’t die, just one of his actors.
My American childhood was Grotbags-free, but having seen her for just a few minutes, I really hope someone steps forward to claim the mantle if the new Grotbags. Bonus points if she turns out to be a Time Lord.
