nentariI'm reading a Fifth Doctor novel (Goth Opera by Paul Cornell), and I couldn't help but giggle when Fivey at some point jumped through a window shouting "Geronimo!"
Ah, foresight. You can be such fun sometimes.
ETA: And now I've moved on to the Terminus novelization, and I'm highly amused that Tegan thinks of Turlough as "the Brat." Speaks a lot about their early relationship.

I was very disappointed in Turlough's lack of results. :D
Of course, as a grown woman, I can certainly appreciate Five's appeal (insert eyebrow-waggle here), but as a child I really disliked him. It's actually a wonder that I continued to watch right after Four left the show...
