#i consider her one
Some fans have run with the idea of Philomena being a Time Lord from Doctor Who, or even a future incarnation of The Doctor themselves.[2][3] Alternatively, some see her as a companion.[4]
Fanworks often feature her talking about fictional events in her usual deadpan and frequently incorrect style.
