I want a three way with Peri and Leela…then you can kill me, and I will die happy. 😃

Ace!!!

Followed by Romana I, Leela, Jo, and Tegan (as long as she shut up, her accent was horrific). And Zoe, I guess, with those adorable eyes.

Then I want Delta from ‘Delta and the Bannermen.’

If I were straight, I’d say Leela, hands down. You know those barbarian women are skilled in the that ol’ hot monkey love. Since I’m gay, I’d say Harry Sullivan. The trouble is that the set of Dr. Who companions is heavily skewed towards women, so a gay guy has a limited choice.

And if I had to pick an incarnation of Dr. Who to screw, it would be the cute blond one with a celery stalk on his lapel who came after Tom Baker.

Incidentally, here’s a guide to the companions:

but the photos aren’t great. I couldn’t find a better one at the moment.  
Bonnie Langford was Mel, and I thought she was a cutie.

“Carrot juice, carrot juice, carrot juice.”

Incidentally, non-companions I’d do include the female scientist from ‘Kinda’.

Mel !!! Wagh! The horrific Melanie Bush…

I thought this was a thread on Companions you’d do, not _do in!_

[sub](aka Violet Elizabeth, a role that influenced every one of my generation against Bonnie Langford. As I’m sure she’d admit)[/sub]
