Meet Eleven's companion.


Karen Gillan.
Well...
She is absolutely beautiful, I'll admit that. But I just worry that combined with Matt Smith being in his mid 20s and Gillan being so young too (she's 21) the show will veer into some 'hip young world savers' angsty love crap and I've had enough of the unrequited love interest with Martha and the god awful pathetic mooning of Rose (who is a complete Mary Sue of Russell T Davies - I love you Russell but it was a bad move doing what you did with that stupid clone human Doctor.) Donna was such a step up (I'll never forgive them for fucking her over like that) and this feels like a little bit of a disappointment. I was hoping for a male companion, or at least somebody who looked older than Smith, it would have added an interesting dynamic to the pairing. Oh well, can't really complain until I see the finished product so Moffat, the ball is in your court.

She is really beautiful. I was hoping for maybe two companions, I like multiple companions. What I really want is for her to be from the future/past/other planet.
I think Moffat is smart enough the avoid bad romance, I remember a panel where he didn't exactly seemkeen on the whole Rose thing.
It's so far away that at this stage I'd be content to know what her character's name is.
