Doctor Who Companions: Amy Pond

It's a difficult task deciding which companion to do next, so I thought why not the latest, Amy Pond, the first companion to have a child or be married if I'm not mistaken. But then again Amy is nothing like any companion that came before her. First lets recap her beginning...

The TARDIS was spiraling out of control when it crashed into the backyard of seven-year-old Amelia Jessica Pond. The Doctor, still in the midst of his eleventh regeneration, bonds with the little girl over dinner, finding his new favorite meal... Fish sticks and custard. But little Amelia has a problem, an unusual crack in her bedroom wall. The Doctor must attend to the TARDIS which is going to blow, and promises to return in five minutes. Of course in true Doctor style he's late, by twelve years. Little Amelia is now Amy, a nineteen-year-old Kissagram-girl. Amy, dressed as a sexy police-woman, and the Doctor save the town, but the TARDIS was still unstable, forcing the Doctor to leave her once again and not returning until another two years later. This time he wastes no time asking her to go with him. Amy accepts, but must be back by morning. Unknown to the Doctor she is to be wed the following day.

Amy Pond is played by Karen Gillan, a twenty three-year-old actress/model originally from Inverness, Scotland. Here's a little trivia for you, Karen's cousin, Caitlin Blackwood portrayed the young Amy Pond, and Amy Pond was not the first character Karen Gillan portrayed on Doctor Who. She first appeared on the show the 2008 episode titled "The Fires of Pompeii" as the Soothsayer.

I wouldn't say that Amy (Karen Gillan) is my personal favorite companion, but she is definitely in the top five, and has to be one of the most complex companions ever.
