The 2005 reboot of Doctor Who brought a companion with a more complex family life than had ever been explored before in the show. Instead of a character plucked out of their time with no strong ties to make them want to go home, you have a companion with a loving mother and a boyfriend. They become involved in her adventures whether they want to be or not, and eventually – and accidentally – find themselves in the TARDIS. As the companion’s devoted friend, Mickey Smith adds a whole new dimension to the show. Join Noel Clarke as he describes his journey on Doctor Who.
