So I could feign professional indifference and tell you that I really don't mind if you read my review of School Reunion, part of the Doctor Who week that Strange Horizons is running. But it would be a transparent lie which would shame both of us. And you wouldn't want that, would you?

There are also some great reviews from some other fine Read more... )

Returning to long-vanished companions, on the other hand, was previously unheard of (with the exception of those rare "Doctor meets Doctor" events that became a sub-genre in themselves).

Battlefield? Okay, so depending upon your definition of Companion the Brigadier may not count since (afaik) he never travelled in the TARDIS, but thematically it fits.

Nick Courtney was the only person (up until 1996) to have been on the show with all the doctors and I'm actually surprised that RTD hasn't brought the Brig out of retirement again.

Are you sure about The Three Doctors? If I remember rightly, he got zapped from our world to Omega's by the anti-matter beastie, and then travelled back via the singularity-stream-thing. He may well have been in the TARDIS, but I don't think he travelled in it.

ICBW but I thought that the Brig was in the TARDIS when Two switched the forcefield off - I guess it is semantics as to whether you count that as TARDIS travel or not...

And I could feign professional indifference and tell you that I really don't mind if you all comment here, rather than on the review itself. But that, too, would be a transparent lie that would shame both of us. I guess the difference is you probably would all want that. :p

The good news: we now have four substantive comments on the SH page. The bad news: they're by the four people who're writing this week. I'm sure there's a word for this situation...
