I worry about the sanity of the 38% of dopers who would *not *shag Amy Pond.
Rose Tyler.
Mmmmm. I’ll be in my bunk.
Martha, Martha, Martha [/jan brady] So gorgeous.
Oswin - damn cute
one-off character not mentioned yet: Jenny (the Doctor’s daughter) was also pretty cute
- Romana 1 (Mary Tamm)
- Ace (Sophie Aldred)
- Peri (Nicola Bryant)
and for baddies
- Lady Adrasta (Myra Francis) “Creature from the Pit” awesome legs…
Which is why the Tenth Doctor married her.
The only thing that puts me off Billie Piper is, her lips are so big, her face looks like a jackknifed hovercraft
- Clara
- Astrid
- Martha
- Amelia
- Rose
And the 5th Doctor spawned her. Lets keep it in the family.
A young blond, eh? Saying true to his character, I see.
I am furious I’m at work and won’t be able to…uhh…verify this until much later.
Honestly, almost all of the nu-Who female companions have been cute. Of all the “proper” companions (as opposed to one-offs, or “half-panions” like Rose’s mum,) Donna is the only one I’m not attracted to.
But in the interest of being shallow and superficial, and limiting my choices, I’ll just say my top three (in no particular order) are:
Amy Pond
Oswin/Clara
Martha Jones
Wait.
Wait.
What?
When did this happen?
Amy, Peri, Teegan, Romana 2, Leela, Jo.
Preferably all at once.
I’d forgotten about her. I guess she got out of my head.
Now I think I should’ve picked Sally Sparrow.
Or Frobisher.
I would go down on Ace every day of the week, and twice on Sunday.
Limited to new Who, there’s really not a companion who I wouldn’t like to take over the Tardis console. Martha is the most beautiful, with Amy Pond maybe tying. I’m rather indifferent to Rose in pretty much every way, shape, and form, but she is nice to look at. Donna’s most like someone I’d actually want to date, and may I add, possessor of the best rack of the new companions. Bouncy castle indeed.
I need to get to know Clara first.
All the rest … meh.
The Red Nose Day 2011 short ‘Time’, which follows up after ‘Space’.
You can find it on YouTube.
Pre NuWho. Unseen by Skald, therefore does not exist, and those who claim differently are just trying to annoy me. See also: the last six seasons of Law & Order: The One With All the Rape Porn.
Pure madness, though in fact I understand it.
Though you overstate the matter, Alex Kingston is not blessed with a beautiful face. She is, however, remarkably hot.
Clara is the FIRST CHOICE IN THE POLL. And I’ve already noted that persons omitted were done so to be cruel.
As to Catherine Tate: there is no Companion by that name. I listed CHARACTERS, not actors. And while I’ll concede that Donna Noble is also less that lovely, she’s funny and engaging as hell. She’s also fairly unique among the NuWho companions in being fairly objective about the Doctor. Rose & Martha were both in love with him; River and Amy love him but can just barely stand him sometimes and periodically must withdraw from his presence to discuss his faults (or gang up on him to destroy his hats).
WHAT DID I JUST SAY?
I love Amy as a character, but damned if I trust her. She’s a two-man woman, and I’m not either of those men.
I don’t remember how I voted and I don’t know how to use the scroll button so I can’t check, but I wouldn’t call Martha gorgeous. She’s certainly beautiful
–probably the most beautiful woman on the list–but beautiful in the way of a painting. Amy is less beautiful, but more hot. River is considerably less beautiful (even allowing for the difference in age), but is far, far more hot.
Sally Sparrow is the girl from Blink. She’s current to you.
Yup, Sally Sparrow is definitely NuWho. *Blink *is easily one of the best NuWho episodes.
So is the Kylie Minogue character from the Titanic episode.
Which part of “pointless malice and childless spite” was not clear to you?
Anyway, I was only counting people who’d ridden in the Tardis. Except for Clara, because it’s clear that she will be riding in it soon and has already been inside; and except for Harriet Jones, because I felt like it. Anyway, all Rhymer poll are deliberately unjust.
Seriously, what’s the point of the SkaldFaq if nobody memorizes it?
I’ll go you one further. NuWho is the BEST NuWho episode not featuring Matt Smith, who of course is the best NuDoctor. Why? Because he’s the first one I saw, that’s why, and Rhymer are terribly provincial.
Though you overstate the matter, Alex Kingston is not blessed with a beautiful face. She is, however, remarkably hot… This, Alex is incredibly beautiful
