Many did,and they've got a place in my heart forever.The late Elisabeth Sladen,who played Sarah Jane,was the best female companion.Sarah was headstrong,plucky,but above all,a warm,caring person in the show.
The same could be said for this lovely lady:Nicola Byrant,who played Peri,in the show.
Now just like a lot of all the other girls in the show,Nicola's character,was a constant damsel in distress.She certainly screamed her head off a lot!
Unfortunately though,Nicola wasn't really tied up and gagged much in the show.All I can remember,is her getting the full treatment in the story 'The Trial of a Time Lord' There was so many missed opportunities for her.I had read one story:'Timelash'where in the book,Peri does get tied up,even handgagged by the main villian.Alas,this wasn't shown in the tv episode.Very disappointing overall.
At least Nicola's up there,as one of my favourite female companions,and she was a great sport too,not minding screaming her head off,as some dastardly monster had eyes on her!
Thanks for the memories,Nicola.:)
