In pure Who / classic Who I would have to go with the fourth Doctor, Romana II and Adric.

In new Who, if I really must, then I would choose the tenth Doctor, Wilf and the Master. No silly emo love stuff or playing at families in the Tardis going on, just three blokes doing what they do best.

That was my immediate reaction before I saw the OP asking about the newer series. Second Doctor Jamie and Victoria and the Fourth, Sarah Jane and Harry. Recently it would be the Ninth Doctor, Rose and Jack, by a country mile.

10th Doctor, Martha and Jack
10th Doctor, Donna and Martha
11th Doctor, Amy and River
11th Doctor, Amy and Rory


For me its 10th Doctor, Martha and Jack. I loved the chemistry between the Doctor and Martha, and then when Jack join in Utopia, they felt like the perfect group. The Doctor and Jack competing against each other, Martha and Jack both gossiping and both fancying the Doctor. The chemistry on screen between the 3 of them makes you think they are great friends as actors and when you see behind the scenes, this is a true fact, DT and JB playing tricks on FA , with the 2 of them acting like typical boys. I still like the trio of 11th Doctor, Amy and Rory, but when I compare it to this trio it feels really bland imo. The same goes with 10th, Donna and Martha, or 9th, Rose and Jack.

So what about the rest of you?

I know you're not a fan of the Doctor's relationship with Rose, so wouldn't expect you to like Rose's departure (though I do, a lot). But Tegan's departure was one of the most natural and least forced in the show's history. Her last story with the Doctor was a particularly bloody one, and it seemed very credible that she would feel she'd had enough.

Probably the most forced and clumsy departure was Mel's.

On the subject of the thread, the current trio is probably the best of those listed.
