Crikey, it's not been a good year for the Doctor's companions has it? A sad loss.

Oh dear Romana 1 has gone

Sad news!

Very sad to hear about Mary Tamm. She was an incredibly beautiful woman and a brilliant Romana. This has been a terrible year for Doctor Who companions.

von Boom · 26 July, 2012, 04:07:02 PM

That's terrible news. Sixty-two is no kind of age. I'll remember her Romana fondly.

Oh damn no. Mary Tamm RIP.

Another of my childhood crushes gone

Amen to that Davey. Romana was the posh totty of Dr Who. Sad news indeed.

A little less recently, Margaret Mahy - NZ writer of children's books from the late 60s on, and who wrote more than just kids' books. Pretty much 'our' Roald Dahl.

Going to read 'Bubble Trouble' to the Quaglet tonight...

Gore Vidal. Clever wit, will be missed.

Most vital Vidal?
