New Companion - Faye Marsay...?

[sttngfan1701d]

I like Shona well enough, but I fear that if she "does a Donna" and shows up again becoming the next companion, that it'll be a little like Rose and Donna combined. She's got Donna's personality and rapport with the Doctor combined with Rose's social position in life.

I do feel bad for her every time I rewatch the special, though. She's obviously a lonely person, desperate for connections with people. She wanted to stay in the dream to escape her regular life, wanted to keep in contact with everyone, wanted to hang out with Clara and the Doctor...and when she woke, there was such an air of resignation.

I've been lonely myself. I know what that's like.

As a film buff, do you think that she's run across the blink message in Sally's DVDs?

For all we know, she owns several "The angels have the phone box" t-shirts. (I could also see Rory owning one, though without any idea what it meant.) There's no reason why that subculture wouldn't continue to exist after "Blink."
