Bumblepatch? That's the actor, right?

Well, umm. No offense intended, but why do you care about it?

Why do I care about it? Why miss, if Samuel Smith-Jesson Jr is considered the 15th Inspector Spacetime and treated as such in the anniversary movie, it will mess up... no DESTROY the continuity of the series! We don't want that, right?

I don't know... can you even watch the movie? After all you're, well...

Lady, the internet doesn't care if you're an alien, dog, or sentient giant tank.

That's a good point, but I wonder about logistics about ordering a movie online... do you have money?

Anyway. That's not the point! Will the movie really be ruined if the actor is changed?

Of course! You see, Inspector Spacetime has limited incarnation through the authority given by his title. The character incarnation played by Cadbury Bumblepatch only appear in an interstitial between-arc episode as temporary incarnation. But that means he must be considered the 15th Inspector! It's not like Samuel-Smith Jesson Jr's incarnation is a bad one, despite what many blogs would tell you. But since this movie focus on the special time-fate of every third inspector, this distinction is important! This movie has a very specific premise! If they break the rule on this one, it will break the decade long continuity of the series! And that, is why this petition is significant. This isn't just about this one movie, the whole series is at stake.

So, it's very important. For the storyline, and for the fans.

[At least some fans, as Setsuko sees.]

I think the writers realize that too. Maybe there's another reason why Bumblepatch cannot play the role? For example, he's busy. Or they cannot secure a contact with him anymore.
