- Sorry to be non-purist, but I had the major hots for Nicola Bryant, and so
- tended to like Peri quite a bit. Aside from that, though, I agree with
- your comments, most of all about the whining.
-
- I respected what Colin Baker tried to do with the Doctor, but, personally,
- it just turned me off. I liked the idea of an "unstable" Doctor, but he
- (the Doctor) went from nasty and whiny to eventually become just too pompous
- and arrogant.
-
- I would have liked to have seen a season of Peri with Peter Davison. I
- haven't seen Planet of Fire yet, but I loved Caves of Androzani ("Sir!"),
- and thought they had a good chemistry.
-
- I also agree that she had to deliver some pretty awful lines, but boy is
- she cute. 8)

- Later,
- Ted.
