.you must be mad, or else you wouldn't have come here

By the umpteenth time she was being called 'Vic', I was all, 'Stop calling her 'Vic'!'
Yeah, it's infuriating. Those guys were insufferable, especially Hopper. I was so glad she was able to pwn him with sarcasm later on.

Screamer? NOT EVEN.
Exactly. Victoria especially has such a bad rep when it comes to screaming, so it's a good thing that her one surviving full serial is one we can rub in the haters' faces.

& also because I WILL be recapping The Three Doctors, so I SHOULD have a Three-era story or two (hee) before that, I think.
I think that's a splendid idea. Might I recommend Inferno, because it has evil!Benton, who is just incredible. I never thought John Levene could play someone so horrible and sadistic.

Would it be wise to sort of pretend that all of Jamie's Companion Chronicles are sort of a series 6B, courtesy of Big Finish?
Well, since the reference to Victoria in Helicon Prime suggests that this one takes place around The Two Doctors and that serial is seen by many fans as being a 6B story, it could be seen as such. Personally, I enjoyed Helicon Prime, but the very final sentence in the audio infuriates me so much (it's such a terrible continuity error that not even 6B can fix, as well as being a tragic thing for Two/Jamie shippers) that I prefer to think that that one is an AU adventure. Or that the final sentence was never said.
(In the Fourteenverse, The Two Doctors happens between Tomb and The Abominable Snowmen, while Helicon Prime never happened, just because I can't stand that closing sentence; I have no problem inserting Fear of the Daleks or The Great Space Elevator in there, though. We'll see about the upcoming audions when we get there - there's going to be one for Victoria as well, I've heard.)

I AM sorry for the HTML borkage in one comment - I was having a great flail whilst writing that one, so that's one error that slipped past me before I could fix it!
I figured as much, don't worry.
