Paid Members Up Chuck Posted December 16, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted December 16, 2011 <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler I think it's about time. They've kind of run their course. I'll miss Rory, I think Darvill's become an excellent supporting actor and a really good foil for Smith and Gillan. It could've become a tiresome dynamic, but it's actually been rather fun. I like the Tardis being a bit more full. Â I don't imagine for a second that there's a chance of this happening, but if they want to go for another Doctor+female+male setup, Meera Syal and John Barrowman aren't doing much else these days, are they? I'd love them to be brave enough to have a Tardis free of female eye candy. Â [close spoiler] ");document.close(); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgmilne Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 My run through and reviews of Doctor Who has now reached the end of the Patrick Troughton era.  Check them out here  As always, keen to hear if anyone agrees or disagrees with my opinions.

iamtheman Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) and the next companion is   Jenna Louise Coleman. who you may know from emmerdale, waterloo road and a small role in Captain America  Jenna Edited March 21, 2012 by iamtheman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Up Chuck Posted March 21, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2012 They'd better have some great writing to justify yet another young female companion, but I have more faith in Moffat than anyone before to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamtheman Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) bit more from Moffat  She's funny and clever and exactly mad enough to step on board the TARDIS.  "It's not often the Doctor meets someone who can talk even faster than he does, but it's about to happen. Jenna is going to lead him his merriest dance yet. And that's all you're getting for now. Who she's playing, how the Doctor meets her, and even where he finds her, are all part of one of the biggest mysteries the Time Lord ever encounters. Even by the Doctor's standards, this isn't your usual boy meets girl."  After the initial eight episodes in 2013, there will be more later in the year – exactly how many is still under wraps. Matt Smith is contracted for all the 2013 episodes. Edited March 21, 2012 by iamtheman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I like the way Moffat reacts to complaints that he isn't any good at writing females by hiring another young obviously attractive actress. On paper it looks like rather safe and conventional casting but you get a sense from what he's suggested that the power balance between Doctor and companion might shift a little, with him following her. I don't have as much faith in Moffat as most people, in fact I find that most of the complaints people had against RTD are more true for Moffat but are conveninantly forgotten by a large proportion of the fanbase, but its obvious that he can write interesting characters. What he says about her being a mystery to the Doctor makes me think he's going to borrow the Buffy sister storyline from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which I'm not too sure will work given that we've already had River Song but its silly to read that much into what's been said anyway.

Paid Members Foale Posted March 21, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2012 PHWOAR! Step aside Karen, ya ginger mess. Â All looks exciting, and I can't wait to find out more about the 50th Anniversary plans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 My bets are on her playing either a younger Melody Pond, or his daughter from 'The Doctors Daughter' episode. Either way, she's lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GalaxyV.2 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 My bets are on her playing either a younger Melody Pond, or his daughter from 'The Doctors Daughter' episode  Nah, the Melody Pond storyline has been pretty exhausted, The Doctors Daughter wont be back for a LONG time IMO. Its possible she could be an older version of the girl in the Christmas episode (think the Doctor says something about her, I'll have to rewatch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Up Chuck Posted March 24, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) Nope. They're doing six episodes this year, including the now-mid-season Christmas special, then seven next year.
