yay! romana, while i thought mary tamm was a better condescending sort of character; you couldn't deny how well tom baker and lala ward played on screen.

I'm not wildly fond of most of the companions (don't get me started on Bonnie Langford) but she was at least good eye candy and he did have a twinkle in his eye most of the time.

you know, i never saw a single story bonnie langford was in? she was during the strange states/scotland period of my life so i missed that entire block.

i'm just glad catherine tate turned out far better than i feared; but like most comedic actors that come to who, she went more serious and that worked way better than freyma-i-act-like-i'm-reading-an-autocue.

Oh Gwen - did you really think Ianto and Jack would come up with a bolt hole and leave a way out?

Oh what is Itosh up to?

silly teach, going and thinking gwen's *smart* or something...

maybe iTosh is busy having her nails done, or calculating PI to 10 million decimals.

both Romana's were cool. ice queen romana and female doctor romana... i'm not saying this is romana II, maybe she's regenerated again.

follow the tangential storyline.

yeah! Romana! I was right. *g*

I'm really curious as to why iTosh is ignoring both Gwen and Ianto. I assume she has outside information.

This is really exciting. I love the pace in which this is unfolding.

congratulations. anyone that watched the baker era probably remembers warrior's gate, but i did expect some people to maybe think it was jenny.

iTosh is busy at the spa, she can't be bothered with petty requests right now.

we'll be pressing down on the pedal a bit now.

I figured it was either Romana or perhaps Rani. I haven't watched much of the Baker era. I'm actually a bigger fan of even earlier and the First Doctor.

iTosh should enjoy her time in the spa. Spa time is very, very important.

the Rani never appeared in the Tom Baker era. she was later.

but now that you mention her... no. i shall say no more. i was always fond of pertwee, tom baker, davidson and mccoy. davidson and colin baker were flops in my book; troughton was too "too". and i've only ever seen i think 2 hartnell stories.

iTosh agrees with you, she's enjoying her seaweed wrap right now.
