Where would Doctor Who be without the ladies? Not even half as awesome as it is, if you ask me. For a start, it's just not Doctor Who without the female companions. The Doctor without a companion is like having nooks without crannies. You just can't have one by itself. And a lot of the story is seen through the eyes of the companion. The human. The character the audience should be able to relate to. And the companions have come from different walks of life to try and help that along. You've got Rose, the kid who lives with her mother in a flat and with no real direction in her life yet. Martha, studying hard to be a doctor. Donna, seems to still be living at home and is going from workplace to workplace as a temp.
The female characters on this show literally do come in all shapes, sizes, races, species and roles. They are the companions with the Doctor, the mothers fretting about where in space and time their daughters have vanished to, the names which have gone down in history, the alien race which may or may not come in peace and so much more.
This picspam only uses images from the regular episodes of the new series (Ninth Doctor upwards) - no specials (although there are two shots of Catherine Tate in a wedding dress because I couldn't resist). I only really know the newer series at the moment. No shots are used of specials because, well, this thing turned out huge enough. Sorry about that. Caps aren't strictly in order either, but that doesn't take away the awesome.
Warning: HUGELY image heavy (35 lots of 960x675), spoilers for (new) series 1-4.
