The Top Ten Hottest 'Doctor Who' Companions

Doctor Who returns tonight on BBC America with the all-new episode "The Bells of St. John." Fans of the show will finally get to see their beloved hero again, and they'll finally get more monsters, and they'll finally get more timey-wimey goodness! But most of all, fans will finally get some intel on the very sexy and mysterious new companion, Clara Oswin Oswald.

Even though Doctor Who has been on the air for almost 50 years, often it's not the Doctor the fans care about as much as his human companions. After all, the Doctor has the hook up to the TARDIS, one of the only vehicles in the universe that can take you anywhere you want in time and space, which means the Doctor has his pick of companions...and only the smartest, bravest and hottest will do.

So who's the hottest companion? Well, that's tricky to say. We went back in time through all of the episodes and all of the companions and ranked according to sex appeal (which is a combination of looks and personality).

There was only room for ten companions on our list, which means numerous honorable mentions have to go out to the likes of Mickey Smith, River Song, Ace, Victoria, Polly and Peri and...well, let's just say the Doctor got around. Judging by our Top Ten, we don't think he minded the journey...
