Past Companions Every fan of Doctor Who has one companion they love, and they will enjoy the return of that companion. Well, according to this article from Radio Times, Chris Chibnall has the same idea. The truth here is most if not all past companions were great. Whovians love them, and it was hard to see them go. Of course, Adric cannot return because he died helping the Doctor defeat the Cybermen. Then are others who we will not see…

Welcome Return Not knowing that the Sixth Doctor and Peri had an audio adventure in 2014, this is a welcome return of one of my favorite combinations. Everyone who has ever watched the Sixth Doctor does not forget Peri. She was for many a favorite as well as this fan. So, when the BBC thought about canceling the show the first time, those fans were hurt. The hiatus which took place not long after Colin Baker became the Doctor was…

When Russell T Davies cast her as Donna, he did something different from the previous companions as well as the ones to follow. She challenged…

Doc Alright, for what seems to be for the First time, a companion refers to the Doctor as Doc. So, what do fans think about that? Is there something special about Graham calling her by that name? Maybe there isn’t a reason for it, but it does seem a bit strange to some fans. As long as Doctor Who has been on the air, there does not seem to any other time where one of the companions call him/her Doc.…
