Georgia Moffett did a great job and I'd love to see her reprise the role. Perhaps as the Doctor is saving some alien world, she interrupts and does it herself.
I imagine River Song's main arc will be wrapped up in Series 6, so if she were to come back as a one-off returning character, early Series 7 would be my best bet.
Alternatively, and I like this idea a lot, she could always return as a successor to Rory and Amy...it'd make for a very different slant on the companion role for Nu-Who. Amy and Rory are the first married couple to travel in the TARDIS, perhaps Moffat will make Jenny the Doctor's first technical relative to travel in the TARDIS in Nu-Who
Sooner the better and would be great for the show even if just a couple of episodes..
If this is the case, then there is a slightly greater likelihood she will have (if not already) some part within Moffat's era... Or, and I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case, he requested that as some HUGE Red Herring that no one but the Whovians would care about :P
I remember reading that, too.
Ahh... Fair enough... Guess it's always good to keep one's mind open, just in case, though...
... You know the deceptive mind of the Moff 'n' all ^_^
IF Jenny returns we should pray to god she isn't played by Georgia Moffet. Okay, it's fantastic that she's Peter Davison's daughter (and, yes, rather lush...) but she's not a decent actress and it's just crazy to expect us to buy her as Matt's daughter...
What about Susan?
Completely agree, she's a dreadful actress.
I've never seen classic Who, but from what I was aware she never married whilst travelling with the Doctor. I could be wrong though
Either way, its a different slant to the companion role in Nu-Who
If they ever decide to kill off The Doctor... and lets face it, if they can kill off Superman, they can kill off The Doctor.... then there is an option there to continue the series with a new slant and a new following.
I realise that this may not sit well with a lot of people, but it never has to actually come to fruition, so long as the idea to have an option, any option, is mooted, it can be filmed.... It's also part of a scriptwriters job to build sustainability into an idea, and giving options to "get out of jail free" of any kind, would be valuable, if never taken up..
Who foresaw Jack and Vera Duckworth dying ?
D
She was Hartnell's granddaughter - series 1 - even before my time.
Seems strange to put a limit on New Who assistants rather than include all of them.
It does mean that the door is open for her to come back if Moffat does decide to take that route though. I wouldn't mind if she did; Georgia Moffet is very attractive, and I think she's OK as an actress.
There's no need to kill the Doctor, though. That's the beauty of regeneration. They can replace the character and actor at will, essentially rewriting him as they see fit and still maintain the show.
You don't need to kill off and replace the character when he already has an inbuilt sustainability that allows him to change appearance and personality at will.
Regeneration was a wonderful idea invented by the early writers that has allowed the series to continually replace its lead character, whilst maintaining its continuity. I wonder if those writers who first dreamed up the idea had any notion of how freeing the concept truly was for the show? Without it, Doctor Who would probably have died a long time ago.
Just look at the next most long-lived sci-fi show; Star Trek. It's only continued through its ability to replace the entire cast and concept, yet remain tied to the basic mythology. It's an acheivement that they pulled that off, but we can see how it clearly had long-term problems when they failed to replace the cast and concept successfully (eg. Voyager)
Doctor Who has managed to create the ultimate get-out card, meaning that it never has to face that issue. You can reinvent it at any moment by having the Doctor get injured and regenerate.
Brilliant idea that guarantees the option of freshness. No need for replacing the character ever, due to this.
Surely there ought to be an IMHO there since "Voyager" ran for seven seasons and had the best viewing figures of all the new Treks whereas Enterprise (cast by numbers imho) died on its arse after a really rocky four seasons the third of which was embarrassing.
Agree about Who though
why do you have something about cornation street on here
Why is the concept of Jenny bad? Even if you accept the unknown EOT woman as being a relative, they are relatives in a completely different manner, and in fact the existence of one defines the Doctor's reaction to the other.
The Doctor had got used to the idea that his family were gone, that he caused their destruction - having a brand new family member forced upon him unexpectedly was an unwanted reminder of what he'd done.

if thats true congrats to her...:)
Tennant looks like he has been living on the streets....:o
as for Jenny, not a fan of the character really, but it wouldn't surprise me if she returned one day, it was left quite open ended.
I don't know... just thinking quickly. Okay, so it was a bad analogy, but what I was trying to say was that any TV series can have anyone pop their clogs without exception.
One of the things about new Battlestar Galactica that kept me on my toes and always kept me guessing what was going to happen next was that the script could and did kill off absolutly anyone. No one was above the scriptwriters sword.. so it appears to be in Corrie and so, I believe, it could be in Doctor Who.
I would not be at all surprised if in twenty or thirty years time the script calls for a new change of direction and they do just that to re-energise the series.
Just what I was trying to say
