How about a male? That would draw two lines under the previous companion visually showing the changes.

I agree with you, but I have been told several times in this forum that we can no longer have two guys in the Tardis (despite how good Troughton and Jamie were together). Apparently there is some kind of quota system going on and, as long as The Doctor remains male (as he should), the (main) companion will always be female. Apparently this is why The Doctor shucks off male companions as fast as he can these days, but he allows just about any female the run of the Tardis.

But then it was hardly ever just Troughton and Jamie. Other than introductory stories where the new female arrived, they always had Ben/Polly, Victoria or Zoe with them as well
The Doctor has had the chance this century to pick up several male companions. He even turned one down cold when the potential companion asked to go with him (the fake tour guide and Earth history buff from the Christmas Special with the Titanic spaceship). He only takes on board males if the primary female companion insists on them coming along and then he ditches them as soon as he can (think Adam). I am just saying that, if you wanted a nice change of pace with the companion, make the companion male and not the ever-so-amazing, really, really pretty, even-ever-more-amazing-and-special-than-the-last-one, 20 something female. That is what has gotten really, really stale; with the exception of Donna, all of the rest of the 21st Century long-term primary companions are all variations on that theme. |

It seems like next week we're getting announcements for Class, so my guess is that they'll leave the companion announcement until the first half of April.

What about having a companion from a Doctor Who comic stories brought into the 10th series? I have had a brief look and there's a companion called Heather McCrimmon who travelled with the Tenth doctor in the Doctor Who Adventures magazines comic strips.
Here's a link to her wikia page: http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Heather_McCrimmon What about Hannah Spearitt portraying her? |

I was definately on the policeman's side when it came to her Ladyship! Rich, bored and played without any (desperately needed) charm, I recall. (Admit I haven't watched the episode since 2009...wasn't impressed.)

What about Jake Simmonds played by Andrew Hayden Smith who featured in three episodes of Series 2. Rise of the Cybermen, The Age of Steel and Doomsday.

^Isn't he retired from acting? Last I heard he became a continuity announcer.

I would love to see either Gemma Arterton or Anna Friel cast as the new companion.

I imagine they'll go for someone relatively unknown |

What about Sally Sparrow? Carey Mulligan would make a great companion!
I know she moved to America to star in a lot of Movies over there, but she could take a year out to film her parts for a series of Doctor Who, surely.Failing that, what about Grace Holloway played by Daphne Ashbrook from The TV Movie? I liked her.Also, Georgia Tennant (formerly Moffett), back as Jenny? She definitely needs to come back.

I didn't think she was that bad, I certainly agreed with the IDEA of her, as having a super confident, wealthy and morally dubious Companion would have been an interesting contrast to the usual main Companions.
