Re: Dr Who's New assistant
Well, it'll give us non-Who fans some eye candy as we're flipping through the channels
(Billie) "Pass me K9 Dr, I'm going to blow up the Klingons"
(Dr Who) "Why are you going to do that?"
(Billie) "Because we want to, because we want to....."

Re: Dr Who's New assistant
Why do people assume she will be bad? She got good reviews for her acting in that drama she was in earlier in the year.
Anyway, she'd have to be going some to be as bad as Sophie Aldred or Bonnie Langford.

I was just coming back to say that - she did get good reviews for her part in The Canterbury Tales.

Don't mention Bonnie Langford, but Sophie Aldred was one of the best assistants ever! She wasn't simply there to scream at the monsters or be captured and require rescuing and (mostly because Sylvester McCoy hated giving long explanatory speeches) got to speak all those lines and the Doctor could just reply "Well done, Ace, you're learning!"
I'm more worried about Christopher Eccleston and the Doctor. "So you're a Dalek are you mate? Well have some of this...!" <Bash, Thump, Crash!!>

I agree on Bonnie Langford - but you must be kidding about Sophie Aldred - Ace was one of the best assistants ever, her and Sylvester made one of my favourite combinations (Jon Pertwee & Katie Manning are probably my fav duo.).

Peri is now a Grandmother, I feel so old - Janet Ellis always did 'do it' for me, though
