In a strange feat of cross-over madness, the BBC will announce the next Doctor Who companion around 6 pm Saturday the 23rd of April. I don’t know who it is, and it won’t be the woman pictured. She is from something called Black Milk and an article on a range of Doctor Who outfits designed to thrill. As to the announcement, it is during half-time in the FA Cup quarter-final. Does this work? Is Peter Capaldi at Wembley?
I like football and may even be watching, but do I want a major Doctor Who announcement mid-way? Anyhow, expect lots of speculation and I told you so articles this weekend.
I’d like some of:
- Non-human
- Male of female
- Historical
- Older than recent companions
- From the future.
I expect we will get:
- British
- Female
- Mid 20s
- Contemporary
See? Vague enough so I can be right! More later this weekend.
