Reviewing this! Been recently dipping my toes back into DW after a little while away, so figure it's a good start. It's my first review, so apologies if I goof anything up.
Overall: On one hand, I lean towards ALT1 as it's less technical/DW knowledge-based than the original hook, but on the other, the original hook is also a bit more positive/"fun," to say the least. Otherwise, not seeing any issues - Earwig didn't pick up anything besides the attributed quotes, the article is extremely well-written (being a new GA), and the original hook + ALT1 are interesting facts to the average reader.

@Lbal:@The Kip:Comment, but as the one who promoted this to GA in the first place I do oppose the usage of ALT1. The Junkee source is the only source that's saying this in the article; using it as a blanket statement as if every critic was saying the same is just inaccurate, and citing only one critic's opinion just isn't really interesting and can show potentially UNDUE weight towards one specific idea. This criticism of the character is valid, but when it's the only source actually saying this, I feel touting it by itself as if it's the only point being said just doesn't really work no matter how you slice it.
ALT5: ... that Fugitive Doctor actress Jo Martin was not told she would be playing the character until the role was offered to her after her audition for science-fiction television series Doctor Who?

Can obviously be trimmed or adjusted a little bit but I do believe at least one of these could serve as a replacement to ALT1; I'm similarly a bit iffy on ALT2 since the whole timeline thing kinda hinges on you caring about said timeline in the first place, so hopefully these will be helpful in that regard if you're still iffy on it.

I do quite prefer ALT3 and ALT4, I'd be willing to have those replace ALT1 and ALT2.
