I’ll just have a look at the poll as it stands right now shall I? 
But I must say, much like Benny’s middle name this is unexpected

They’re two very different characters and I refuse to name favorites when I love them both for very different reasons. Benny is such a unique and long-running companion who I think is on the same level as The Brigadier in terms of legacy to the fandom and importance to the Doctor. River has such a compelling and beautiful story that intertwines in and out of the Doctor’s. They both shine whether they are on their own or with the Doctor (and in some cases, steal the Doctor’s spotlight). Two sides of the same coin, they get along spectacularly as rivals and friends. I hope that we get another crossover between the two in the new series of The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield.

I feel that a pairing between the two is a strong enough concept to carry its own set, just like the next one for 9, honestly.

It’s been done. See “Lies in Ruins”, part 1 of The Legacy of Time.
Oh I’m aware. I’m talking about a whole set.

I saw that (and voted for Benny of course)
Wondering whether I should close this poll to maintain the current result?

There are lies, there are damn lies and then there are statistics…

Benny is cool, but River is everything. She’s Ms. Frizzle for grown-ups. I want to be her, and I want her to be my best friend.
