Karen Gillan to play Matt Smith's Doctor's Assistant

I'm sold. She doesn't even have to talk as long as she doesn't dye her hair and wears outfits like that.

By the way, anyone else getting a much younger Catherine Tate vibe here?

If this "regeneration" is like some r-tarded make younger plot device thing, Im firebombing the BBC.

I doubt it, throughout the show's history most companions have been quite young, so I don't see her as atypical, it's only Smith who's an anomolly (but in the same way Davison was, he's only a few years younger)

So long as Smith can play 900 and Karen is more Zoe/Leela/Sarah Jane/ Tegan/ Donna and less Peri/Mel/Martha then I won't complain...
 
Despite that, there are a couple of wags at Outpost Gallifrey trying to convince people that Karen will be playing Donna as a teenager, the Doctor having realized that interfering in her past is the only way for her to escape her fate from Journey's End... ;)

dont you just love on OG has gone from "Donna will destroy the show, this is the end of Doctor Who" to "this new companion is a younger Donna, if the show does not have Donna involved in some form, it will die"
 
She could of course be the young River Song. It would explain why the Press Release told us nothing about the character she's playing, not even her name.

now that really is crazy talk

Almost certainly.

However there's certainly nothing at the moment to disprove it...
that argument could prove anything, it could prove that she is an Ice Warrior sent by the other Ice Warriors to capture the Doctor, and take them to there top secert Ice Warrior base.

Wamdue, do you even know what an Ice Warrior looks like?

There's no sodding way that you could mistake Karen Gillen for an Ice Warrior. Unless Moffat and Wenger are planning on putting her inside a rubber suit, and I really don't see them doing that.
 
I wonder if she's any relation to Ian Gillan?

I think she and Matt Smith will look good together on screen. I hope they have as good chemistry together as the producers seem to think.
 
She seems to have the minimum qualifications necessary to be a Doctor Who companion. Hopefully she can also act and has a compelling back story for her character.
 
I have to say, this girl looks proper dead scottish and that, namsay?

Which is why they stole Time Lord technology and cloaked one of their number with a chameleon circuit, dumbass! :p



(you're not a dumb ass, that was friendly banter NEROON YOU POWER DRUNK FUCK)

(you're not a power drunk fuck, Neroon, that was just friendly banter SPACEMANSPIFF YOU DRIBBLING BELLEND ON THE COCKTIP OF HUMANITY)

(Oh Spiffy, how could you doubt the love that swells between us? EAT THAT BONZY)

I'm gonna go and lie down.
