They might as well be cardboard cutouts, and the episodes they are >in are much less interesting because of it... Aw, come on now. Nyssa is for us daddy's out here...very sexy AND intelligent. Never more so than in the story (i forget it's title) at the end of which she elects to stay behind and leave the Dr. (the one where lepers are sent to some planet or other to be `cured' but in reality are killed.) In every episode of that story she lost more and more of her clothing. But all `in the best possible taste'. Teegan, I admit, was a pain (to me) as was Adrick but someone must have liked them...

It comes to me as quite a surprise that the Peter Davison - Colin Baker change is not due to drowning. Would you care to set us staright on this since you seem to have more recent information? Despite satisfiying a few people's curiosity (we here in Austin probably won't get anything other that the Tom Baker shows for another year) it would also be helpful in gauging the accuracy of my source for future information.
