I think Rose was the best, despite some baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad episodes.
Martha, awful.
Donna, pretty good.
Jack, pretty good.
Cribbins, woo!
The Master would have been the best companion. Even if he'd been tied in a chair in the corner of the TARDIS for safety's sake.
The leather look seems to be working for a lot of people, but frankly she is not all that, and her acting is about Martha standard.
And an aristocratic jewel thief is a lazy cliche even by RTD standards.

You wouldn't want to sleep with him, though. And a good companion must have a certain Rogererability.

Racist. Didn't take long for Aaron to rub off on you.

No I wouldn't, I'd want to f**k him.
Old lady viewers may disagree.

Yeah, let's start writing that list. That'll be an effort.

Come on, she had a fiendishly clever escape plan.

Too right. How good would it have been if the Master hadn't died/'died' at the end of that series and had accompanied the Doctor as a kind of reluctant companion, f**king things up on different worlds and trying to take over rather than running around after the Doctor.
Better still - the Master should have come into the series earlier that season, nicked the TARDIS as he did, then have a couple of Doctor-less episodes while the Master travels through space and time f**king things up before he decides to become Prime Minister.
I've just noticed that when I type the f-word, it automatically puts "**" in.
I wish real life was like this - my potty mouth would get me into much less trouble!
I'd like them to bring Aunt Sally back as his companion.
It was nice to have a companion whose accent didn't sound like she'd been beamed up from EastEnders.
Yes, definitely agree with that. Toooo many cockneys.

I think you're getting cockneys and common people confused. Easy mistake.
My dad's a cockney. And quite common.
So... you may be right.
