I just watched the Tom Baker tribute special. And they discussed Sarah Jane Smith and Leela and K-9, but not Romana. Romana 2 does have a brief appearance, but how can you not list her with the Four companions? Are they doing another special just on the Time Lords? That would make some sense, I suppose. But I still think Romana should have been mentioned. And I'm not even a HUGE fan of the character. I could see not mentioning Nyssa, Adric and Tegan because they are more Five than Four.

Anyway, it was a slapped together bit of business this tribute and I expected better for Tom. He is, after all, the defining Doctor for many people. Though, it was good to see Tom and have some of his insights.

Romana 2 was my first companion so I was surprised to read that neither Romana has a feature in this Revisited.

Still have not seen this yet. Anyone have a dl? It's not up on any video streaming sites either that I can find, not YouTube, not Daily Motion, not Veoh, not Vimeo. Has BBCA gotten wise to the ways of the internet? A little late now.

There you go. And, well, it wasn't a very good tribute, is what I'm saying.

I haven't seen any of them since we don't get BBCA

I thought this too. They should have showed (more of) Romana II, damn it! D:

There was, at least, a little snippet of her. Romana I wasn't in it at all. I hope they have a revisit for the Time Lords to make up for that oversight.

I think my friend taped it but I guess I have to prepare to be disappointed, what else is new?
