Throughout the long-running BBC series Doctor Who, the Doctor has
rarely been alone-his companions are essential. Male or female,
human or alien, young or old, the dozens of companions who have
travelled with him over the past 50 years have served as
sympathetic proxies for the audience. Through their adventures the
companions are perfected, facing danger and thus discovering their
strengths and weaknesses. Yet they all pay a price, losing their
innocence and sometimes their lives. This collection of new essays
examines the role of the companion as an intermediate between
viewers and the Doctor. The contributors discuss who travels with
the Doctor and why, how they interact, how the companions influence
the narrative and how their journeys change them.
