DOCTOR WHO To
Get New Companion!!

I am – Hercules!!


“Doctor Who” will get a new companion for all 13 episodes of its fourth season, while Freema Agyeman, who played season-three companion Martha Jones, will miss the first half of season four, according to the BBC.

The actor playing the new companion has not been revealed, but should be soon. Shooting on season four begins this month.

“Who's” third season begins Friday on America's SciFi Channel.

Perhaps current “Who” showrunner Russell T. Davies, who earlier created “Queer As Folk,” will be bringing in a male companion?
