Okay, so imagine some great disaster is going to wipe out the entire human race, minus you and one other person, and you have a chance to decide who that person is, and live with them for the rest of your lives. Who would you pick?

Now, I figure from the get-go that this would be a pretty terrible thing to do to someone, so if you're at all empathetic, you probably wouldn't pick someone you love. Likewise, anyone who you know suffers from survivors guilt in general would be a bad choice.

But it would be nice to have someone you know, too. Someone with whom stories of the old days might be shared, once a lot of time has passed. So probably not a stranger. And you'd have to live with them, so nobody you hate.

That narrows your options down to people who do not overtly piss you off, but who maybe let you down - so your relationship sucks to begin with, but whatever mutual respect is there could develop again into a friendship.

So I figure mine's Conor. Not fragile, not someone I love, not someone I hate (though I'm still hurt about the way he changed his attitude toward me), and who I respect enough to profit from his conversation.
Creepy clown episode made my skin crawl a little bit.

But they're still going strong with continuity. An image from the Celestial Toymaker in Sarah Jane's research, but that's not the best. Oh no.

I'm going to be terribly disappointed if next weeks episode (Secrets of the Stars) doesn't refer to the Masque of Mandragora. Because the trailer is just 500 years off from that story, I SWEAR. (And after all, the Doctor DID say the Helix couldn't come around for another try until the end of the 20th century.....)
