The current Tardis team consists of the fantastic four – Jodie Whittaker’s Thirteenth Doctor and her pals Graham (Bradley Walsh), Ryan (Tosin Cole) and Yaz (Mandip Gill). They have great chemistry together, but having to juggle four leads has proven to be a bit of an issue over the course of Doctor Who season 11, which just wrapped this evening with an underwhelming finale.
This is an age-old problem for the show, though. Back in the early 1980s, the Fifth Doctor was also accompanied by three companions – Australian air hostess Tegan (Janet Fielding), alien teen prodigy Adric (Matthew Waterhouse) and gentle, smart Nyssa (Sarah Sutton). The foursome’s adventures have now been re-released on Blu-Ray and one of the special features sees Peter Davison laying bare his feelings about his era of Doctor Who.
Among other things, the actor revealed that he thinks having four characters in the Tardis makes the time machine too crowded.
