It occured to me that every NuWho companion we have had so far has had some sort of upgrade or enhancement since they met the Doctor or at least because of him, even if only temporarily. Except Martha. I couldn't think of one for her.

Rose - Had the whole TARDIS in her head
Jack - Became immortal
Mickey - Became an auton thingy
Donna - Became half Timelord
Amy - Spent her life with the crack running through her brain and could think things into existence
Rory - More lives than a cat. Also Auton for 2000 years
Clara - Download brain thingy

Not sure if there is a point, but there is definitely a pattern so I thought I'd state it.

I suppose it's a nice change. Usually in the classic run they just got mind controled for a few episodes. I don't think it's anything so regular that it's particularly noticeable though.

I don't think things like this really matter as long as they are different enough that it doesn't feel like it's becoming a mould. Without it pointed out on here I probably would never have connected the dots tbh.

Not sure if it would count, but Martha gained a year of worldy knowledge and military insight which she got to keep once time got rewound.
