From personal experience I would have to guess that there are
more trekies than whoites.  At least in this area, Star Trek
episodes are shown pretty consistently, while Dr. Who comes and
goes.

I went to the Dr. Who Convention in Philadelphia last year 
around this time, and Tom Baker said that while Dr. Who has a
fairly large following in the U.S., there aren't really any
"whoites" in England - the show evidently isn't really all that 
big there.

I wish I could answer your question about the female character
with the hat, but, as you've probably gotten from other readers,
you'd have to be more specific.  There have been so many female
leads on Dr. Who over the years - Teegan, Nyssa, Leela, Romana
just off the top of my head.
