Jenna-Louise Coleman announced as the new Doctor Who companion. More to come…

Jenna: “I want to get started already. I’m a huge fan of the show”. Of her favourite companion “Between Billie Piper & Karen Gillan.” 

“Matt Smith did my audition with me. It was fun and I felt like we were in it together.”

Steven Moffat: “We saw a lot of brilliant actresses. But Jenna was the only person going faster than Matt - he had to keep up!”

There will be 6 episodes this year, including the Xmas Special. Then 8 next year. Jenna’s character will first be seen at Xmas.

We’ll be posting more info to the Doctor Who Tumblr and BBC America Tumblr in a bit.

I share the name of two companions. Yet I hold no one’s fancy. Yet?
