She asked if I would recommend some Tegan/Fifth Doctor fics. I'd be glad to, said I and here we go.
Now, quite a few people watch the New Who these days. To be thorough, I'll give just a bit of background here and tell you that I'm going to start by recommending three authors, not just stories, as I have yet to see anything of bad quality coming from them.
Tegan Jovanka was played by Janet Fielding, 1981-1984. She was an Australian air-hostess, short and fiesty. The Fifth Doctor was played by Peter Davison, 1981-1984. He was, and still is, the youngest actor to take the role of the Doctor in Doctor Who, Tennant included. This was 'my' TARDIS bunch and, for all intents of purpose, still is.
