Random Thought

[drakyndra]

Does anyone else think it would be neat if in say 10-15 years or so, Maria from the Sarah Jane Adventures were to become a companion?

Because, well, it'd mean a companion who is completely competent at alien fighting and world-saving to start with. Which could be interesting.

Also, instant character backstory (or prequels, for that matter).

Luke is too similar to the Doctor to work as a companion, I think.

Nononono that's the beauty of it! Awkward 5th Doctor trying to connect with enthusiastic but emotionally-naive genius child, only not Adric so it don't suck! Underscoring the ineptly-parental role and yet imbuing it with sweetness! Also, and this was my main point, NOT ADRIC

I might be misreading things here, but I am getting a mild suspicion that you like this idea because of a slight... "not-Adric"-ness of it all.

You have to admit, she makes a compelling argument, there.
