Karen Gillian left Doctor who because other people really wanted to be the doctors companion. What i don't get is i would think more people would want to be the doctor than the doctors companion. I don't know. But i think it was a very sad way to end Amy and Rory's time there. Even Rose that was really sad. I wish i could be the doctors companion but i am only 12.
