100% Peri - I would love to see Matt's Doctor come face to face with a vengeful warrior Queen, still furious at being stranded by him on Thoros Beta and having to marry King Yrcanos.

Peri's story was never truly resolved, in the same way I always thought Sarah Jane's story needed a proper 'end'.

I remember being very scared by her being written out as a child. I was really disturbed when they killed her off at the beginning of the series so good idea that they revised the ending! She was such a great character her and davison were best together

Kameleon Only kidding.

I'd love to see either Jamie or Turlough, however if we can include Big Finish companions then I would really like to see Maggie Stables as Evelyn

Agree!
And if you're one of the people who choose to accept Big Finish and other media as canon, however they approached it would not conflict with the revelations of 'Peri and the Piscon Paradox' or the Virgin new Adventure story which she also appeared, think it was called Damaged Goods?

Others I would like to see are Tegan and Ace, but on the whole I'd like to see any of them, I love a bit of nostalgia!

'Peri and the Piscon Paradox' is a great story. I don't think it would completely rule out a TV return for Peri though
Spoiler
I love Big Finish!

Perri, Nyssa, Tegan, Ace, Ian, Susan,

Actually pretty much anyone who is still alive apart from Mel and even then good writing might save her.

Naturally, I have to agree with this!

Chatterton, erm, Chesterfield....

[/BillyFluffs]

I really think it would be fabulous. Even if it's just a visit from the Doctor to catch up on old times.

Questionable if Ten didn't do this already mind

Peri, Although I'd probably have it that the story the Doctor was told about her was a lie and that what he saw was in fact what happened and that she is ruling Thoros Beta possessed by the Mentor (Kiv) as a despot.

Ian - please please for the 50th!

Polly - really feel that could be interesting

Tegan - we could get some nice confrontation scenes

Mel - just to give Bonnie the oppurtunity to show she can actually act

Ace - Sophie Aldred is brilliant

And also Steven, Romana, Nyssa, Turlough and Peri in cameo roles representing the places they remained at in a meeting akin to D.O.O.P. from Futurama

Ian if Bill Russell can handle it, but if not then Ace or Peri.

But any of them would be great. I like the idea somebody came up with of Steven having become a despot after the Doctor left him.

I've only just started watching Classic Who, so I guess I vote Ian and Susan.

I was born in 77, Davison was my Doctor ...

As a young child I always liked Adric and Nyssa, but Turlough and Kamelion were for me the most interesting companions of the 80s simply because of their potential to be used against the Doctor.

I wouldn't mind seeing a Kamelion mk 2 or a grown up Turlough with a fresh set of troubles

Ace was to appear in the next season of the Sarah Jane Adventures, if the show had continued.

Sophie Aldred revealed she was lined up to guest star in the show during her big Doctor Who Magazine interview a few months back.

I know I would want Ace with me if I ran into a nest of Daleks.

Maybe they could bring it back for a bank holiday special some time under the amended title of "The Bannerman Road Adventures" or something?

They could leave "Dedicated To Elizabeth Sladen" on the titles out of respect to her work on the show and have the kids meet other former companions of the Doctor such as Jo, Ace, Tegan.

As for Sarah Jane herself ...... what better way to explain her absence than to give her what she always wanted ...... the 4th Doctor DID come back for her, but the 10th didn't want to spoil the surprise because she'd have spent her time waiting instead of saving the earth with Luke, Clyde et al.

The 50th Anniversary needs Carole Ann Ford & William Russell, even if it's just cameos as other people or them shopping in the background; however if they were to bring back any former character then Ian should be very high up their list aswell imo!

If we're talking about bringing a character back, I'd love to see Barbara return. Obviously, there would be a logistical issue preventing this ...

Ian and Barbara together would bring such gravitas, level-headedness, experience, intelligence and authority. And we really would find out if Sarah Jane was right and they hadn't aged at all ...

That's what I said

I think you've misread what I've put, I was saying however she returned it wouldn't conflict with Peri and the Piscon paradox

For the 50th, I would lOVE to see a "mega-multi" Companion story, with EVERY companion (still alive) joining forces

Just a shame SJS (ES) cannot be a part of the 50th celebrations
