Re: Favourite and Least Favourite Doctors, Companions, Anything!

Verily, in article <xn0p8d5gi8hb3s8002@post.eweka.nl>, did
blueshirt@indigo.news deliver unto us this message:

They were both part of the new-Who syndrome of the companions
being 'special'... and it all being about them. Which as it
goes on just makes good companions become annoying and for me,
devalues the role of the Doctor.
 
In "Doctor Who" a companion was [generally] there for the Doctor
to explain his cleverness too, asking questions so explanations
[for the viewer] were supplied ... and needing to be rescued by
the hero of the show - The Doctor.

The Doctor himself wasn't the fulcrum of the universe, either. He knew
much more than the humans, but among his own mighty race, he was a
duffer.

That was part of his charm. He traveled time and space, but he was also
just some guy.
