Hi everyone. I am doing a Year 12 assignment about Doctor Who for my subject Society and Culture. The assignment explores the representation of the Doctor’s companions and whether the companions have changed and evolved to reflect the changing role of women in society over the past 50 years. It would be great if you could help me out by giving answers to the following questions:

1) Which do you prefer-the new series (2005-now) or the old (1963-1989)? Why?

2) Do you think that the female companions between 1963 and 1989 were presented in a sexist way?

3) Do you think that the female companions in the modern (post 2005 series) have been presented as stronger and more independent than the earlier companions?

4) Who is your favourite companion? Why?

5) Do you think there should be a female Doctor in the future?

6) Would you still watch the show if the Doctor was female?
