As much as I liked Rose...she's ahead of Sarah Jane - this must be rectified! Please vote!

**NOTE - towards the bottom of the page is where you select to vote - it currently says Rose vs Donna, but when you click that link it will take you to the correct page for Rose vs Sarah Jane.

Oh my, she's pretty far ahead, too...

58 to 42 last time I checked. I love Rose, but Sarah Jane was the best. No doubt about it. She was so important in the old series, and to the new. She was just as iconic as the Doctor.

Yup, couldn't have said it any better myself.

Once you vote, there is another link at the bottom of the results page for Rose vs Sarah. It's to vote for the 3rd best woman of WHO - it's Donna vs Leela. Donna looks to have quite a lead...

I think a big problem is that this is mainly new series fans voting here...

Indeed.

It's already biased towards Nu Who before it even got going.

6 years of Nu Who, with every main female companion represented. 26 years of Classic, with only 4 represented.

Then bring in all the Nu Who people that only know Nu Who that are only going to vote for the companions they are familiar with...

Maybe we should start polls for the ladies here and get a fairer perspective.

I would definitely be all over Sarah Jane for her appearances in Classic Who, Nu Who, Big Finish, and SJA. I think she was able to portray everything a companion could be before and after riding on the TARDIS.

I'm surprised nobody has done polls like that. The poll possibilities are endless with the show! The polls here generally have to do with "who's buying x item?".

You'd have to keep track of the voting manually... once upon a time didn't someone try to do a Doctor one and there is a limit to the number of choices you can put in the poll template?

The way i've seen it done that would prolly work well is listing all the female companions, then have people either have a single vote, or maybe 5 or so, then they can add a +1 to whoever they like (only one point per person). At the end of a certain time (say a week), you take off the bottom X or so. Then go again for a week with the trimmed down list, and keep going until you get a final 5, 3 etc for the grand showdown.

yeahhh, those are always fun
