I know Dgem, CD and I got a little obsessed with Who

But general Who knowledge anyway (plus a couple about the Inn and one that isn't really related at all. But hey we're Whoonies. You can't blame us for not being general enough )

Just a quick question, didnt Rose appear in more stories than Amy? (even tho I put Jamie down for my answer )
davrosdodebird
07-11-2012
I thought so at first, but I had to do a recount after Outside put Amy as his answer.

If I'm right, Rose appeared in 28 stories, and after a quick count, Amy has 29. Mainly because series 6 hadfewer two parters (unless you count AGMGTW/ LKH as one, which most don't.)

"What was the first story to feature more than one doctor in any way? "

The Chase with the robotic duplicate.

My train service was FUBAR this morning, so I didn't get into work until just 10 and was too late to transcribe my answers from the (gasp) piece of paper I'd been working from!

Pipped by Amy as of Series 7. Helped, of course, by the amount of mini-stories.

Meanwhile in the TARDIS 1
Meanwhile in the TARDIS 2
Space/Time
Bad Night
Good Night
Good as Gold
Pond Life

Jamie has it for most episodes, however.

But of course the minisodes don't count towards the total of main series episodes which form the answer to this quiz

If you want to PM me your answers at some point please do, and ignore the tempting answers above

I don't think we specified that, but the answer is the same regardless.
TRT1968
07-11-2012
Also:
"Which companion was in the series for the most number of years?"

I had put The Brigadier as my answer. 1968-1989 on and off, continuously from 1970-1975. Though he only did 23 stories, he has appeared in more episodes than Amy or Rose. I think.

I would have given you the brig, and would have deducted a point from outie and webby. This is how difficult a quiz on DW is, there are so many anwers

Spoiler
