Doctor Who: 10 Worst Things Amy Pond Has Ever Done

1. Rory Williams Or The Doctor?

When we first meet adult Amy Pond we learn that her first encounter with the Doctor when she was younger left quite the impression. The little girl from Leadworth had everything from custom figures of the Doctor and TARDIS to making her future husband dress up in 'cosplay' of him.

But a thread of Amy's character, especially in her first two series, is whether the Doctor or Rory was more important to her. Yes, both characters were significant in her life from a young age, but were both vastly different from one another, obviously. As shown by a previous entry in this list, in the end Amy risks time itself, but before that Rory still questioned their relationship.

Most of us know what it's like to compared to someone else, but imagine that person is a 1,200 year old Time Lord? How does one live up to that. Particular examples include Vampires in Venice and the Day of the Moon, where Rory feels totally overlooked compared to the Doctor. An argument can be made that Rory is very insecure about the situation and should simply trust his Fiancé. However, we've all seen the Eleventh Hour to the Angels Take Manhatten, and whilst we do see the couple grow, we also see Rory get unfairly treated from time to time.

Technically the Williams get their happily ever after, but her early treatment of Rory is largely wrong. Amy is an exceptional companion, but just not always the best person, especially to her Rory...
