Series 6-type stuff is exactly what I'm shooting for! The need to spread the story out across the season is precisely why I said there would be two plot episodes, four non-plot episodes, two plot episodes, three non-plot episodes, and then two plot episodes again.

It really depends on who you cast as far as companions go, as well as what type of characteristics you want to portray. The Doctor can't have a companion in Series 11 because it's not in his personality yet. But by Series 12, I'll want to sit down and give the idea of a companion for him some serious thought.

I definitely agree that humor is one of the better aspects of Doctor Who, which is precisely why I think Tom Hiddleston is a perfect candidate. The Thirteenth Doctor gets his humor from his narcissism; as for future Doctors, that will come with future development...as in, way in the future :P
