Top 10 Television Ships

#7
Rory/Amy
Played by: Arthur Darvill and Karen Gillan

            Doctor Who’s latest companions and the first married couple in the TARDIS.  I was shipping these two before they were introduced.  I had heard vague spoilers about them and saw a couple of pics but for some reason I immediately took to them as a couple.  I just knew they would end up married because otherwise it would just be a repeat of Rose/Mickey and why go there again?  Amy is a very closed off girl and doesn’t show her emotions easily.  You can tell how much she loves Rory but she just can’t say it.  Rory is so sweetly devoted to her and he knows all her issues but accepts her anyway.  Amy cried for him even when she couldn’t remember him.  Rory waited thousands of years for her.  Amy was willing to die based on the chance that she would see him again.  It’s all so dramatic and I eat up every second of it.  I’m so glad the show decided to go in a different direction instead of another ‘companion loves the Doctor’ plot.  Amy and Rory are a breath of fresh air.  They went through a lot in thirteen episodes but they still made it to ‘I do.’  I don’t know what series 6 will bring for them but I hope that whatever it is, they’ll make it through together.  They are the girl and boy who waited.
Episode to watch: Amy’s Choice

  1. They are so cute together. Im surprised they made your top ten just because of how new they are. Im glad the show chose to keep them together.
