Besides Rose the only other companions I liked were the Ponds. Clara is ok, snarky at times, but she was no amy or rory or Rose.
I'm trying to get into Capaldi, but I just haven't had the time to sit down and marathon ALL of S8 to see if there is something about him I like. __________________

I feel Clara improved in s8. I just couldn't get myself to care much about her in s7. But no, she's no Donna or Amy. Went to a DW con a couple of weeks back, and one of the guests said he thought Capaldi needed a Donna, and no matter how much I think Clara has improved, I think he's right. We need a stronger female companion to match Capaldi's Doctor. Someone to properly put him in his place when he needs it. Clara does it a little bit here and there, but I don't think she does it enough

I really haven;t watched much of S8 beyond the first episode and I only watched that because of Vastra, Jenny, and Strax! LOL!! Love them!! But i can agree that 12 needs a Donna like character. Donna had a knack for putting 10 in his place when he needed it.

One of my fave moments has to be when River slapped Vastra to make her wake up! LAMO! I was like "Damn River!!!" Hahahahah!!

From the sound of it, I can believe it was a hard slap.

Poor Neve, but she always tells the story with a smile and laugh. She was actually asked about the slap at the con I was at last month, but I can't remember specifically what she said, which really bugs me. I hate how bad my memory is sometimes...

I would love to meet her at a Con some time!! She just seems like a great person! And if she tells the story with a smile and laugh, it couldn't have been too too terrible !LOL!

Well, if any of you are in or can easily get to the UK, my favourite organizer is doing two DW cons (and one Torchwood one) next year. In May, July and December
