Doctor Who General Discussion
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/12/16/doctor_who_new_companion/
So, new companion time.. Anyone willing to guess whether they'll be male or female this time?
I'm thinking a young River song might be on the cards?

Didn't they say it was someone 'new'. River Song is anything but
Plus it couldn't be River Song as she's been accounted for
Baby > New York - Brought up by The Silence and no Doctor
New York > Let's Kill Hitler - Grew up with Amy and Rory and no Doctor
and then she regenerates into her last incarnation which is Alex Kingston.

Re: Doctor Who : Season 7
If it was not somebody new then I would say it could have been Captain Jack, I know John Barrowman wants to appear in the new series and now Torchwood seems to be once again on hold it would be a perfect time for him to appear. I hope its not james cordon.

Re: Doctor Who : Season 7
I thought it was awful. A very thin plot, no action, not well written, just seemed thrown together to me.

Re: Doctor Who : Season 7
I enjoyed it. BTW, did anyone else spot a subtle reference to the original series?

Because it was there to be spotted by all Classic Who fans.
It wasn't really all that obscure though, the story in question was called The Caves of Androzani and was a regereration story, which heightens its status somewhat.
