Talk:School Reunion (TV story)

Companions...again
There's something of an edit war brewing concerning Sarah Jane as a companion in this story.

Please see Companion, Talk:Companion, Forum:Disputed Companions and Forum:Who counts as a companion? before engaging in any further edits.

There are two fields on the infobox that are of note to this discussion; companion and featuring.

Rose Tyler is the only companion in this story, as in she was travelling with the Doctor prior to this story. Her name goes in the companion field.

Sarah Jane Smith, Mickey Smith and K9 weren't travelling with the Doctor prior to this story. Mickey becomes a companion after this story. All their names go in the featuring field.

Just because Sarah and K9 help the Doctor in this story does not make them a companion in this story, Canton Delaware does the same thing (even more) and is not a companion. --Tangerineduel / talk 17:01, June 13, 2012 (UTC)

Removed item
I removed the following item from Story Notes:


 * Although strongly implied in the case of Rose since at least TV: The Parting of the Ways and discounting the unique case of one-off companion Grace Holloway in TV: Doctor Who, this episode marks the first time a companion has expressed having anything beyond platonic feelings towards the Doctor. Later, Rose, Martha Jones and Jack Harkness would make their feelings known as well. In a related vein, this episode marks the first time the Doctor has explained at any length how the departure of companions affects him, although he stops short of mirroring Sarah Jane's feelings.

There is no reason to discount Grace, she is a proper companion no matter how many episodes, so this episode does not mark the first instance of companion interest in the Doctor. Shambala108 ☎  04:37, September 27, 2013 (UTC)
