Doctor Who: 10 Characters From Other TV Shows Who Would Make Terrible Companions

5. Wesley Crusher €“ Star Trek

wesley crusher Any Star Trek fans will easily see where this is about to go. Wesley Crusher didn€™t manage to get into the Starfleet Academy on his first try and yet, he always seems to have the solution, despite everyone else on board being expert crew members. He always saves the day and is loved by everyone for it. Surely, the Doctor would find this just as annoying as we do? The assistant isn€™t supposed to come up with a brilliant solution; they aid the Doctor and maybe guide him towards something he hadn€™t quite seen, something that brings out their humanity. The Doctor calls them brilliant, kisses them on the head if they€™ve done really well and then runs off to save the day. Although he€™s got experience in space and he€™s obviously great in a crisis €“ we can€™t have Wesley stealing the show! It€™s called €˜Doctor Who€™ for a reason and we want it to stay that way!
