You all know now that Jenna-Louise Coleman was announced yesterday as the new Doctor Who companion.
I haven't seen her in anything before, so I don't know what she's like as an actress. However, I've heard that people who've watched her in Emmerdale didn't like her, which puts me on edge a bit, however, I am willing to keep my judgements to myself until I've seen her in Doctor Who.
First impressions however are that she's quite cute, very pretty, and looks like she has the potential to be a lot of fun.
People are complaining that Matt Smith should go with the Ponds, but I think it would be a total shame if that happened; I think it would be interesting to see him with a different companion. They could work brilliantly together. Yes, it'll be odd to see him without Amy and Rory, but it was going to happen eventually.
Everyone needs to remember that she isn't 'replacing' Amy; Amy is leaving, and a new companion has to follow, Jenna has just been given that amazing opportunity, it's unfair to hate on her for that.
I'm looking forward to seeing her, personally. I think Amy and Rory have served their time and it's time for something new. I have to admit, it took a long time for Amy to grow on me. In series 5 she was very much a stubborn, pouty, almost brattish girl, but series 6 was an improvement and she matured and I started to like her more, however I still wouldn't class her as one of my favourite companions.
I actually find it hard to register series 1-4 as the same TV show as series 5/6, so I find it weird to compare the companions. But Amy was always going to leave, someone was always going to come next.
Give Jenna-Louise a break, and wait to see her in an episode. THEN we can judge her fairly. I'm looking forward to seeing it :)
