Lily Allen to be the Doctor's Next Companion?

Category: BBC

Looks like there are more rumors about who may be venturing into the Who-verse, pop star Lily Allen is being rumoured to join the Doctor as a new companion in the future.

Chart Attack carries a small rumour article here, however it's source appears to be The Sun, a UK paper/website that has carried tons of questionable rumours about what's coming for the Doctor, remember the Ben Kingsley one?

"We've talked to her and she was excited by the idea," an unnamed source told the tabloid. "Billie used Doctor Who for her transition from music to acting. We think Lily can emulate that."
Unnamed source huh? Well, we'll see. I'm personally looking forward to seeing the Doctor and Donna together, as the chemistry between them is very enjoyable, not to mention the return of Martha.

I also tend to think that when/if it's time for a new companion, I do think there could be more choices than pop stars to take on the role. I personally would love to see Sally Sparrow join the cast as the Doctor's companion, Blink was by far my fave episode of Series 3, and Carey Mulligan, the young actress who played Sally, had to carry the majority of the episode herself, and the fan response to her was enormous.

Bring back Sally Sparrow says I!!!

What do you folks think?
