Favourite Doctor Who companion
 

Rose Tyler gets my vote, though I do admit to having seen only a smattering of episodes from the original run.

I see you're not included one-time companions -- at least for the 2005-to-present incarnation (didn't check the others) -- and that's understandable. I am interested to see '06 Christmas Special's Donna Noble again as that character is to return regularly next season from what I have read; I believe she has the potential to be even better than Rose ultimately.

Where the heck is K9?

Leela. Hands up and down.

We need jerk off smiley!!! http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/doitnow.gif

Oh - that one actually works, doesn't it?

I just watched yesterdays episode (The Doctor's Daughter) and I think I have/had a new favourite companion =)

"generated anomaly" Jenny http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/heart.gif

Critics say: "cute as a button" and I agree.

Yet three companions in a single episode? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/happyno.gif

Am I bovvered?

They did show Rose a few episodes back but they didn't explain how she got back from the parallel universe.

BTW the Doctor's Daughter is TEH HOT! Genetic cloning for the win.

Edit: The actriss's name is Georgia Moffett and she became a mother at just 17! She officially gets entered into my MILF book.

Sarah Jane Smith, I had a real crush on her when I was in primary school!!

Peri was the best! http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif

Leela was hot though.

When will be finally be done with Rose Tyler?

Well at first it seems they dont want to kill companions, so they park them at another dimension/Organization/Virtual World/ Space Trip etc.
Fine by me.

Recently though they keep getting rescued which turns otherwise beautiful plots into a farce. ( 'Donna Noble has been saved' anyone? )
The End of the season where Rose got stuck in another Dimension was very good. Now it seems they just decided to bring her back? Why? It kind of takes the purpose and beauty of some other episodes away http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/frown.gif

(Although the Previews are usually misleading)

Perhaps they should start to kill passing companions for the greater good of the series. The possible Archeologist Companion which seems to start with her death seemed quite clever. I mean Her End as a fixed Situation where the story leads to? Genius!

To be honest, while I really like Rose Tyler and Martha Jones, and I can tolerate Donna Noble...

I miss having Jack Harkness in there.

Also, I'd really rather be the companion, myself.

Donna is ok. Better than Rose and Martha anyway...

QFT. It's just sloppy writing from RTD... http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/mad.gif Thank god he's handed the reins over to Steven Moffat now... Indeed! Was really happy when I saw this as the best one part episodes (Girl in the Fireplace and Blink) were done by him as well as the two parter you mentioned.

Funnily enough I researched him on wiki a couple of weeks ago and found out he wrote an obscure sitcom years back called Joking Apart that I always thought was totally brilliant and underappreciated.
