Doctor Who: 10 Things We Want in an Anniversary Special

9. All Living Companions

THE WISH Imagine a story featuring the Doctor having to find and meet with all his various former companions. Picture him going to 18th century Scotland to find Jamie, the distant future to find Zoe, Australia to see Tegan, or to wherever the hell Torchwood is these days to meet up with Captain Jack. It would be a great way of showing us, at least briefly, what became of some of those companions since the Doctor left them. ODDS OF THIS HAPPENING Low. Probably only about 10% or so. New Who fans could pretty easily wrap their minds around seeing various versions of the Doctor from the old series, but they€™d have no clue who, say, Steven or Victoria or Nyssa were. They€™d not only not know, they wouldn€™t care. I do think we€™re probably going to see at least one or two previous companions, but certainly not the whole lot of them.
