ORIGINAL: emogeek Always saddened me that she didn't do more stories than she did (4 in total plus the brief appearance in The Five Doctors) and that, after deciding to get rid of the character, they never gave her a proper goodbye - especially as, to my mind, she was the first companion who could be seen as an equal to the Doctor, and she always appeared to have a good chemistry with Pertwee. By all accounts the decided to write her out because of her characters intelligence, meaning they couldn't use her to ask the questions to then allow the Doctor to explain to the viewers what was going on. Hence replacing her with the slightly dizzy Jo Grant And I'm probably not the only person of a certain age who found myself remembering her every time Noomi Rapace's character was namechecked in Prometheus Caroline was also pregnant at the time , so her departure was by mutual consent I believe..
