Although we've yet to find out how Amy will leave the scene, the new companion has been announced!

Jenna-Louise Coleman (Emmerdale / Waterloo Road) is to play the part of "someone who can talk even faster than [the Doctor] does". Judging by the comments the Moff has made about her, her character's identity will be a major part of the build-up to the 50th anniversary bonanza we all know the writers are planning. Whether or not this means we'll have another go-around with the River Song trope (that annoying "Who are you?" "Not telling" game we just got finished with at the end of last season), it's sure to be interesting.

Personally, I'm hoping she won't be another romantic interest for the Doctor. What with last season's finale and the long time it took most people to accept River Song, adding more love to the show would just be... well, it'd just be too much. In a perfect world, she'd be an alien who actually has an INTELLECT - someone who can give the Doctor a run for his money, like the old Classic Who companions used to do.

What do you all think about Miss Avocado? She seems intelligent and funny - she's certainly pretty - and she's a good actor as well. And, knowing the Moff, her character will be absolutely out of this world (quite literally, too, if we're lucky). Will she be a Time Lord? Or an alternate Doctor? Or a regeneration of Jenny's? Or - God forbid - another human? Tell me! I really want to know what you all think.
