Doctor Who: 10 Characters Who Should Return For Russell T Davies New Series
3. Gwen Cooper
Gwen Cooper is one of the greatest characters to come out of the Doctor Who extended universe and, as a lead character through all four seasons of Torchwood and many Torchwood audio dramas, she deserves to make a live-action return.
Gwen balances life as a professional badass, wife and mum with skill. She is fiercely protective of those she loves, and nobody would want to get on her bad side. Gwen went through a lot during her time at Torchwood and even met the Doctor during the season four finale.
It would be great to see her get more involved with the Doctor's adventures and hopefully make a return with the Torchwood gang in a new TV series. Gwen would even be a perfect candidate to be a new leader of Torchwood. It's been over ten years since the last episode of Torchwood, and we deserve more. With the return of RTD and BBC Three, it's looking more and more likely. Fingers crossed.
Earlier this year in Revolution of the Daleks, Jack mentioned Gwen by name and fans went into a frenzy. Most people were more excited by her name being dropped in one sentence than they were about Jack being in a whole episode; that speaks volumes about the power that Gwen has over audiences.
