    Ace: bringing NuWho-like character to a DW companion before it was cool.
    Edit: Not saying the Classic companions before her didn't have character - the original TARDIS team is my personal favourite. And yes I have watched Classic Who... Around 60% of it so far.

    My kids don't understand that if you missed a programme back then, you missed it (Unless you had a video) it was rarely repeated. I missed an episode of Robin of Sherwood in 1984 and didn't see that until I bought the VHS ten years later.

British comedy duo Hale and Pace as shop keepers, Lisa Bowerman's Karra, Stuntman Tip Tipping doubling for Sylvester McCoy's motorbike joust, Doctor/Master fisticuffs and the "Cities Made Of Song" speech that was tacked on cuz it was decided to end it for 6 years!

      He got much better after they toned down the comedy. Which might have been odd for a naturally funny man like McCoy, but it worked for him and it worked for Jon Pertwee, who was renowned for his comedy roles but (wisely) played his Doctor straight.
