My theory on favourite Dr Who's assistant is based on how old you were when you saw them... Tegan or Peri when I was in my mid-to-late-teens would be my favourites. Leela used to run around in a bikini most episodes (from memory) but I was only about 10 or 11 when she started so didn't really care. I preferred the dark haired Romana to the ratty one - I do remember that. Though I'm a big fan of Dawkins now so go figure.

Edit - and the ratty Romana had played a princess or somesuch in a previous episode and taken on her likeness when the hot Romana regenerated. Stupid regeneration. Should have stuck with the same face and maybe bigger boobs. Now THAT'S regeneration.
