Titolo: Janet Fielding

I come out of lurker mode with what may be a stupid question.
Everything I read on the subject suggests (IMO) that Janet Fielding's time
on Doctor Who was a bit frustrating, what with JNT having her costumed as
'eye-candy' and such.  Add on to that what I read in that paperback about
Peter Davison's tenure as the Doc about how he didn't exactly favor the
character of Tegan (he doesn't say anything negative about Janet, but he
definitely preferred Nyssa).  Can anybody give me the scoop on how she looks
back on the show?  I'd like to know...
wondering why Sontarans look like potatoes,
Jack

	Speaking of Sontarans, I've decided to get off my lurker butt and 
type something.
	Who here thinks that the Sontarans are one of the most underused 
alien races?  I think they are fantastic.
	I've read 'Shakedown' and its prequel (I can't remember its 
name!), but is there any more novels with the Sontarans?

Don't you think that it was the Sontarans who gave the specs for the 
space ship in 'Contact'?  ;)

The Infinity Doctors has them and the Rutans in it.  I've only just started
reading it, so I don't know how much they'll feature in the story, and I
don't want to give too much away as yet... even though it's probably been
discussed to death already :-)
Catcha!

I think the Ice Warriors were, but you're right... looking back a lot of
them gave up the idea of sex as something that would detract from their game
of universal conquest :-)
On the other hand... I wouldn't like to hear what's at the end of a dalek
sex line either :-)

Hmm. Well only the mad-one-off types are common. Most of the races
seem otherwise.

Yeah, I once wrote an article called "Womb of the Cybermen," the thesis of 
which was that the Cybermen's aggressiveness is sublimated sexual 
frustration, since, as far as I can tell, there ain't no Cyberwomen.

So that's why The Doctor fought the Sontarans so often he wanted to make
Vodka out of them.... That explanes why he always smiled.

 I would like to see a Sontaran history, much in the manner of David Banks' Cybermen history, that explains how a cloned race can go from three fingers, to five and back to three...
Perhaps they weren't all cloned from the same person?  One source
Sontaran for
one specialization, and another for a different specialization?
And please, don't go quoting The Infinity Doctors at me.

That's just tempting fate. But no, the stuff about all of them being cloned
from General Sontaras (sp. prob.) was floating around years ago. I assume
it's mentioned somewhere in "The Invasion of Time".

Really? I don't recall ever hearing it before.  And I think you spell it
Sontar, but then I don't have the book on hand, and it's been nine months
since I've read it. 8)

 And I think you spell it Sontar
   I think that comes from either the novelization of The Sontaran
Experiment or one of the DW Weekly back-up comic-strips...
