Karen Gillan cast as the new Doctor Who companion

A massive mistake this. Not only is she too young but she's a complete unknown ( I couldn't even find a decent picture of her on the net). They should have asked Catherine Tate to stay on for another season or brought Caroline Quentin in.

And there are loads of pictures of her on the net, there is a grate one on the press relese and there is that one from Fires of Pompei which is on a hole page in that dwm series 4 special.

I disagree. Since Matt Smith is very young there needed to be an older companion to balance things out and keep older viewers interested.

"And there are loads of pictures of her on the net, there is a grate one on the press relese and there is that one from Fires of Pompei which is on a hole page in that dwm series 4 special."

I tried google image and could only find a couple of poor ones.

I'd agree with Tom Baker & Nicola Bryant, although I found Freema a tad wooden.; 1 June 2009 at 13:14
