- You may be looking for the actor.
Barnaby Edwards was a companion of the Doctor some time after his tenth incarnation.
Barnaby and the Doctor fought the Sontarans, the Floor Manace and had many other adventures. After some time, Barnaby fell in love and left the Doctor. The Doctor entrusted him with a message for the Doctor's past self. Barnaby encountered the Tenth Doctor on his birthday while living in a care home. Barnaby was unaware that this was an incarnation of the Doctor who had yet to meet him. He gave him the message and then, according to the Doctor, went to sleep. (COMIC: Old Friend)
