Important Publishing-Related* Petition
posted by Emma on June 9, 2007 08:13 PM
I should like to start a petition for the following things:
- For Carey Mulligan to immediately be installed as the new Companion.
- For Steven Moffat to write all future Doctor Who episodes.
And it didn't even contain that much David Tennant. Who'd (heh) have thought such a thing would be even barely passable? Genius!
Please sign your assent in the comments and I shall send to the BBC on the morrow.
*Er, not really.

Gets my vote too. Feisty, fun and easy on the eye.
Great script too - actually scary as well as involving - and who wouldn't like the "big ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff"?

Best yet! If i wasn't a tough, hard counter terrorism detective i'd have spent a sleepless night worried that a weeping-angel-alien-thing was hovering above the bed, thankfully i am fearless so i didn't... honest... i'm tired... mummy!

I really think Russell T Davies should step down as head-writer: the best stories for me have been from the likes of Moffat and Paul Cornell.
And apparently Moffat is only doing one episode next year, and Cornell none at all. :-(
As for Carey Mulligan for companion, then if the rumours are true then the TARDIS would become an all-female domain.

It's about time we had a female Doctor.

What a fabulous episode! I thought the preceding double-header had been pretty darn fine (I think Russell T Davies has a fuller sense of the depth of the Doctor myth than Moffat), but this latest episode was superb. Great move mostly to keep the Doctor out of it.

Hear hear and a big AMEN from me!
Sally pretty much epitomized what a companion should be for me... and Carey Mulligan did an absolutely fantastic job!
And if the Doctor won't take her... I will!!!

Brilliant episode. One of the best along with the Satan Pit. It scared the living daylights out of my non-doctor who fan friends at a sleep over party. we didn't get much sleep after that

I should say so, if they are not going to keep Martha Jones then bring in Sally (actually i'd rather Sally but only just ) but please Catherine Tate, Kylie!!. The phrase jumping the shark comes to mind.

I have liked all Steven Moffat episodes.
Did you know that peter Davidsons real name is Peter moffett? Wierd. Anyway Empty Child is my all time fave Doctor Who episode..ever! (eh eh ever)
