:::: Yes, that's true, and I think that is a very good argument in favour of her companion status, however I feel she should be considered a companion even if this weren't the case. That said, I am not familiar with the convention for such determinations. | :::: Yes, that's true, and I think that is a very good argument in favour of her companion status, however I feel she should be considered a companion even if this weren't the case.

::::Anyway, are there any objections to this? I know it was OncomingStorm12th who originally reverted their companion status, but we haven't had any input from them on this issue yet.

: So, for benefit of future readers of this discussion, I'll link to the [https://www.facebook.com/thebigfinish/posts/2598145690214597?comment_id=2598982303464269&reply_comment_id=2599619343400565&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%22%7D Facebook post] which originated my removal of her status as a companion. Even though there isn't really a policy towards this and, in many cases there is a clear consensus on who's a companion and who's not, it seems that this isn't one. I completly agree that the narrative supports her being a companion and all, but when the producers of the stories themselves come foward and say: "River is not a companion so Brooke would not be applicable either", I think we ''could'' reconsider. After all, we consider [[Heather Threadstone]] a companion based solely on a behind the scenes comment from Colin Baker. | |||
: And I agree there are several instances of "companion turned enemy", from BF stories in itself: [[Mathew Sharpe]] and [[Daniel Hopkins]] for example. All in all, I wouldn't be opposed to returning both Brooke and River to the companion categories, but if even Big Finish don't consider them to be companions, why would we?
