Now that we've begun to get hints about Series 7, any thoughts about what strange choices may pop up? I don't mean the return of the Rani -- it's a given that every female character will be thought to be the Rani. Here are a couple of my ideas:
- The preview posted on the BBC America site and currently on the Series 7 page in this wiki show a Wild West setting in America -- perhaps we will see Mark Sheppard return as Canton Everett Delaware I.
- I've suggested this elsewhere, but what do you hope to see in the new companion? I hypothesize that she will be the daughter of River Song and the Doctor. --- this will solve the problem of the Doctor's guilt about taking humans into danger. Boblipton talk to me 02:04, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
It would also solve the problem of the companion being in love with the Doctor. What I hope for in the new companion is that we will get an additional companion. The "young girl with the Doctor" is getting old. Shambala108 talk to me 02:46, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
Well, the "young girl with the Doctor" has been part of the show's formula since the beginning, and is unlikely to change any time soon. Still, I agree that it is good to mix things up a bit. America's a big enough country that the Doctor isn't likely to run into another Canton Delaware, though it isn't impossible. If he's going to the old west though, then maybe we'll finally get a reprise of The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon, which all Doctor Who fans have been waiting for for 46 years. Well, that would be kind of stupid, but hopefully there will be some kind of nod to the Gunfighters. That eyestalk at the end of the trailer looked like it could have been a Dalek eyestalk, and we haven't had any good Dalek episodes during the Moffat era. The new companion being the Doctor and River's daughter would be pretty cool, though there isn't any real reason to believe that that's the case. Besides, if a daughter of the Doctor's is going to be a character, then it would be nice to learn what hapenned to Jenny before the Doctor gets another daughter. I'm sure we'll also see more of the Silence in season 7, and possibly see the Fall of the Eleventh at the Fields of Trenzalore.Icecreamdif talk to me 01:30, March 31, 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry I wasn't more clear...I meant "young girl alone with the Doctor". I'm not much of a Smith/Amy fan but I did like the dynamic of 2 companions. I'd also like to see some more classic Who aliens. Shambala108 talk to me 04:19, March 31, 2012 (UTC)
ok, i know this probably isn't true, and is on par with assuming the new companion is the rani, but could she be a regenerated form of jenny? well, anyway, the official dw website said it wasn't going to be a typical boy meets girl story, even for doctor who. any suggestions on what people think is meant by that? Imamadmad talk to me 06:37, March 31, 2012 (UTC)
Well, if he says that it's not a typical boy meets girl story, that probably means that it is an atypical boy meets girl story, and if it is a boy meets girl story, that probably rules out the new companion being his daughter. Hopefully, she will be something a bit more interesting than a human from 21st century Earth though. I doubt that they would recast Jenny if they were to bring her back, unless the original actress really didn't want to come back. I agree that the young girl being the only companion with the Doctor gets kind of boring, but it's what the 3rd(arguably), 4th, 6th, 7th, 9th, and 10th Doctors generally did, so don't expect that pattern to go away anytime soon.Icecreamdif talk to me 07:16, March 31, 2012 (UTC)
Moffat has said the Doctor will meet the new companion in "the last place he'd ever expect". If he meant that literally (which he almost certainly doesn't), that would suggest Gallifrey.
On the "young girl alone with the Doctor" point: It depends. Rose was a "young girl alone with the Doctor" but so was Ace and the two relationships were very, very different. --89.241.78.21talk to me 02:29, April 1, 2012 (UTC)
