Karen Gillan to be the next Dr Who companion

I hope there's more to her than her looks; television is overran by dumb mannequins; not to mention the last 4 mind-numbing years of a once-great show... at least Steven Moffatt is the producer, so maybe it'll be more than just looks, emotional tugging, and the usual second rate allusions of the Doctor being Christ... :eyes:

1. I had the same reaction
I'm afraid Doctor Who is becoming Gallifrey 90210. One of the strengths of the old show was that personality and intelligence mattered, not just youth and looks.
