Doctor Who: 10 Characters Who Should Return For Russell T Davies New Series

6. Lady Christina De Souza

Lady Christina De Souza only appeared in one TV episode (she's since made small comebacks in audios and comics), but that one live-action appearance made quite an impact. An aristocrat cat burglar, she drew parallels to Lara Croft and was a whole load of fun.

The last time we saw Lady Christina in the main series, she took off in a flying bus, aided by the Doctor and narrowly avoiding being arrested. Lady Christina is a character who deserves a comeback because, while her story felt complete at the end of Planet of the Dead, she is someone who would always be welcome by fans because she was so cool, and we want to know more about her!

While she might not have been companion material on account of the stealing and questionable morals, she would be a great ally and someone we'd love to see turn up occasionally to lend the Doctor a hand. She could get involved in the more dodgy things that the Doctor wouldn't want to be part of and be of assistance in new, fresh ways that we haven't seen before. Who needs psychic paper when Lady Christina would be five steps ahead and would have already broken in?

Simon is a writer, cat dad and presenter of a geeky radio show with his husband. He loves Doctor Who (except 10 who can get in the bin…only joking.) He idolises Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Lara Croft and would 100% be a Sith Lord in a galaxy far, far away. He wishes life was like a musical so he’d actually be a good singer.
