Hells yeah.). I definitely see the appeal of Nyssa, though, but the princess dress-turned-pantsuit thing she was stuck in for so long looked kinda weird. As far as I'm concerned, Adric's greatest failing was that he didn't take Tegan with him.

Somehow the concept of a math savant from a futuristic communist collective never translated into an interesting character. He edges out Peri because, frankly, she looks better in a bathing suit.

Romana and Ace will always be first in my heart, though. (And you have no idea how pleased I am you didn't bring up Peri...)
