There’s a bit in this for most Brits of a certain age, maybe Americans too, later on. Downunder too.

My interest in this short YT is twofold … first is to place it on the timeline and at the same time, give away my own age to a point … the other is that I missed Susan altogether, really only coming in during Zoe but even then, not really, certainly I became Who-sentient during Jon Pertwee’s time and my most sentient Who moment was Tom Baker in Pyramids of Mars.

I’ve always felt I missed the two best girls, with me being way too young, possibly them too … while Sarah-Jane and Lalla/Romana 2 didn’t quite cut it for me … did not like Leila, Jo was good. With Tegan, Romana 1 or Ace … er, sorry … feminists leave me cold. I also read that Susan became difficult off the set, thought she was much more important. Which leaves it as Zoe for mine.

Dateline, year … I was quite surprised that Pyramids of Mars was so late … 1975 … hardly in my childhood … suppose during my full-on education, I just had no time for TV watching … or else my parents hogged the set, though post-1974, I was off on my travels again. Anyway, here’s that YT:
