With the departure of Chris
Eccleston, Doctor Who has continued its successful run with the Doctor being
played by David Tennant. His appointment to the role has reunited David
Tennant with the script writer Russell T Davies who also scripted Casanova.
The casting of Tennant was a ground breaking event in the history of Doctor
Who. For the first time the Moms had some 'TV Totty', which had previously
been the preserve of the Dads who take a somewhat enigmatic and
animated interest in the Doctor's assistants.
Something for
the Dads.
Something for
the Moms.
2006 also saw the exit of Rose
Tyler as the Doctor's assistant. Fear not Dads, Freema Agyeman stars as
the Doctor's new assistant. Freema managed to secure the role despite
having blotted her copybook by starring in Crossroads as 'Lola Wise'.
Perhaps in future episodes we may see the appearance of Benny and Ms
Diane.Freema's CV also includes such
classics as 'Casualty' and 'The Bill'. "Torchwood" everything will
be ok and the Doctor and Ms Jones will hit if off.
