Doctor Who... Page 140

I wonder if, when it returns for full series again, if anyone from tonights will actually appear again; Captain Jack, or any of the others? I think maybe Jack could but I wouldn't be surprised if thats it for them all; new boss, new team.

Yes. I wouldn't mind that actually. They've practically all got their own shows to be getting on with anyway.
I'd like to see a bunch of mostly new people.

Oh, and I wonder where they'll go for the next companion? Newbie, like Martha, or a known face? Probably won't get a regular one in the specials, have to wait until 2010! Maybe they'll go with someone whos known again, to give it a big push on its return?

Maaaybe.
Can you imagine it being a girl again? I want to know if it's just me who that would seem ridiculously boring to, or if it's a wider thing.

We're not sexist. We just want a good character.

Ill be surprised if it's ever just the Doc and one male companion; it would certainly be different, but I think that they think they need the Doctor-female companion dynamic, for the general 'floating' viewers to latch on to. Maybe the Doctor, a female comapnion AND a male companion?

Like Mickey, innit.

Wouldn't it feel like oh god ANOTHER woman for them to either have sexual tension with, or make a big deal about how there isn't sexual tension.

Yawn.

I think a guy for first half would be refreshing.

Nah. It's only the picky uber-fans like sootyj who make a big deal about any of that.

Don't say I'm like sooty!

Well if anyone can pull it of, it's The Moff; i'm all for it, but i do think the producers will think 'ooh, mmm, dunno; I think we need a girl in there'. For that reason Ill be surprised if it's ever just Doctor-male companion for any serious length of time.

I just want the Master back for the Doctor to travel with, and to have no companions.

Nah, you're normal. Your longing for a male companion is different to the picky, whiny nature of others.

Better that than Cousin Scampy.

That would be like 'The Pink Panther' movies, with the Master trying to kill the Doctor every time he got back in the tardis! :D
