Three New 'Doctor Who' Companions for Season 11

Three New 'Doctor Who' Companions for Season 11

Jodie Whittaker's first female Doctor won't be adventuring through all of time and space alone. The BBC announced that several new faces will join the cast of Doctor Who when Season 11 kicks off next year. Bradley Waslh, current host of ITV quiz show The Chase, will play Graham, Toison Cole will play Ryan, and Mandip Gill will play Yasmin.

Their names are pretty much all we know about these new characters at the moment. Are they total strangers? Friends? Do they all come from the same time period? Work in the same job? Are they even all technically human? And, maybe most importantly, are they all going to be in the TARDIS together?

The official BBC annoucement names this trio as the "new regular cast", but doesn't actually say the word "companion". Apparently new showrunner Chris Chibnall is "shaking up who will travel with the Doctor in the TARDIS" next season. Yet, that also doesn't say whether or not these folks will all be traveling with the Doctor at the same time.
