I'm trying to think what to say here, but Caroline John has died

:-(

ETA: On a purely self-related note, it's weird... I never set out for this to be the case, but I think in terms of sheer wordage, I've wound up writing far more for Liz Shaw than any other companion. Even if I am terribly unscientific myself. (And, damn, damn, damn, this is one of the reasons I never write death!fic. I Googled to check first, and... Anyway. Sad news.)

Damn. :(

Liz is in the fic I'm in the middle of. I've never tried to write her before. Now I feel I have to redouble my efforts to get her right.

I saw this just before heading to work - spent three hours trying not to cry my eyes out.

OMG. It feels like they're dropping like flies all of a sudden.

Although I was surprised to learn she was 71. The trouble with watching her in Doctor Who is you forget it was 40 years ago.

Can we have a Liz Shaw prompt fest on [profile] dw_straybunnies?

To paraphrase Dickens, the beauty of restored DVDs can sometimes be almost cruel.

I know. I saw the headline on the BBC website and sort of didn't register it at first. And then I thought Liz too?...

She was only on the show for a year, but that's what she's most remembered for...

RIP

I guess all I can say is that I want to hug Katy Manning and tell her to please live at least ten more years. John Levene, too.

Awwww, that was lovely, thanks. Lots of lovely Brig too! (And was that song actually about her?)
