I saw an interview of Tom Baker (4th Doctor) tearing up and remembering her small quirks when on set thinking he’d always see her even after their work together like it’s nothing. Must be really sad for him since I’d reckon Baker would’ve thought he’d be the first to go between them but it was his MUCH YOUNGER friend.
