Meme of Fannish Fives Part the First

[misssara11]

catyuy gave me several of these, so I'll tackle them one at a time.

Up first: Top 5 Old School Companions you wish had been on screen with 10.

These aren't in any sort of order. And Sarah Jane is as much a Ten companion as the others, so she's not here.

1. Jamie, because he's Jamie and wonderful.
2. Liz Shaw, the BEST of the Old School ladies
3. The Brig, Liz needs her boy toy and he's The Brig!
4. Susan, you know, because he doesn't angst enough about things
5. Nyssa, because it would be nice to see him with someone who didn't leave on bad terms

These are all great choices.

Oh thank you.

I'm kinda hoping we might see him with the Brig in the SJA 2-parter, since Nicholas Courtney has been on SJA.

I really wanted to see him with Romana (in fact, I was originally hoping that's who Alex Kingston was really playing), because if you ignore book/audio "canon," then there's no good reason she couldn't still be out there somewhere.

I'm not a Romana fan (well Romana II and I really don't believe any thing romantic happened between them). And according to RTD, in his canon she was the president when Gallifrey was destroyed. I'm good with that.

I know Ten and the Brig were "reunited" in one of the DWM comics, but I want to see it on screen!

I'd have loved to see Rose and Jo onscreen together. Once I saw a few episodes of Three, I've become convinced that the Doctor so has a type. =)

See, I really don't like Jo and don't think she has anything in common with Rose (though I've seen the comparison before). Actually, I don't like Three, he's my least favorite. I just love the Old School UNIT folks.

I'll admit I haven't seen more than a few eps, but from the start I was all "omg it's a bra-less 70s style Rose", and the association's stuck. Though other stuff I've heard like how she left sounds right...

This is reminding me, I really need to watch those Three/UNIT eps I downloaded. Wonder where they went...
