The next companion for the 8th Doctor has been annouched!

Ruth Bradly, who some of you may know from the television show Primeval, has joined Paul McGann as the eighth Doctor's new companion in the upcoming Dark Eyes box set! Ruth plays Molly O'Sullivan a World War 1 Voluntary Aid Detachment nursing assistant.

As many of you already know, Dark Eyes takes place right after To The Death. After some tragic loses, having a new companion will hopefully bring the Doctor up from the muck and give him a little hope for the future. The Dark Eyes box set comes out in November and features the stories The Great War, Fugitives, Tangled Web, and X and the Daleks!
