    It is absolute canon that during the Time War, John Hurt was down there taking names, but Leela was cliffside commanding a garrison of soldiers ripping apart Daleks for weapons. I love it.

      ​@@danielwilliamson6180...Nope and this "essentially"(wibley wobley timey whimey) canonizes the Big Finish audio series Gallifrey and the follow-up Time Wars series of which I highly recommend both.

  • @ShinyaMerveilles66
    @ShinyaMerveilles66 Před 4 měsíci +337

    For those not completely aware of big finish, this is awesome on many levels
    1: Leela was living on gallifrey for decades before big finish even began covering the gallifrey series and through that series we know she was there when the time war was officially declared so by now she's got decades if not centuries of experience
    2: the ONLY reason she fights for gallifrey is to protect Romana, who was locked in a pocket dimension. The fact that she still stands with gallifrey up to it's final day means she technically outlasted both races in the war
    3: despite being considered lesser in the eyes of gallifrey, she lasted long enough to be conferred respect befitting (possibly) a military rank
    There are few characters, much less companions, who can claim to have outlasted the time lords and daleks in the time war, and she did so more or less by being a direct combatant and fighting to the end

The 2023 Christmas Special was the most watched thing watched on BBC that day. You can say that you dislike it, fine, but just in terms of viewership even, the show's doing better than it has in years. "Tiny minority" my ass.

I've also heard rumors of a Tom-era character reappearing at some point in the new series, and I've been hoping for either more Tegan or for Leela to finally show up in the show proper. Since these box set videos seem to be leaning on the side of canon, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for more Louise!

    Leela's exit from the show was, by all accounts, terrible. She fell in love with a man she shared a single scene with.

If it weren't for the end of The Invasion of Time, we'd never have had the Gallifrey audio series, or her fantastic chemistry with Romana.

    Leela is my favourite ever companion.
    I’ve always thought Jameson perfectly captured the heightened sense of theatricality the show actorly needs, married it to characterful realism and perfectly pitched it for her portrayal of this fearless Warrior of The Sevateem. There was always a janis-thorn stabbing, jungle pungent hint of the Shakespearean lead about Leela, the young warrior, a prince among women.
    Louse is staggeringly all of that in this gorgeously written/visualised vignette, the best of the Blu-ray batch yet. This is Leela the lead, the fighter queen doubling as a bellowing, tragedian king, a perfect blend of heightened and natural.
    At long last we get her televisually facing off the Daleks and who better a companion to do just that? I love the fear Leela’s pushes to the back of her eyes to confidently confront the enemy in front of them. There’s something about fear presenting fearless making it more excitingly powerful.
    I desperately want Leela in the new series with Ncuti.
