  1. She was the companion I really recall clearly watching as I grew up. RIP

  2. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

    K9 must be heartbroken.

    I know I am. I always loved her, as one of my favorite companions. The recent episode with her and Billie Piper as Rose was one of my favorites of the Tennant years.

  4. BTW, is that TARDIS a scratchbuild? I think I need to do one for random placement on tables as we game.

  5. Thanks for the comments, gents, yes, truly a sad loss - it's always hard when you see those icons of our youth pass away - for me, from the Planet of the Spiders onwards, she was always the definitive companion - I also hadn't realised that the Actor who played 'the Brigadier', Nicholas Courtney, had also passed away earlier this year - at least they will live on in some of the best Dr Who episodes ever....

    Hi J, yes, that little Tardis is a scratch-build, or, in my normal style, merely a conglomeration of odd bits of rubbish laying around - the paintjob is also more expressive than accurate, but I kind of like it!

    Hi Tas, well, Holy Heck, I can only say that I am stunned and honoured by your generous nomination - not quite sure I can live up to such a title, but I am certainly very grateful for the thought - I really appreciate all the support you have shown from the start, and can't thank you enough for the recognition - all I can say is that I am standing on the shoulders of Giants, yourself included....

  7. Thanks Jim, you're a gent - and it's not as if I can even dream of approaching your own amazing work rate, so I think given the quality of your own Blog, any nominations should have been the other way round!
