 Outpost Gallifrey: Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
It is an interesting debut for Dodo (especially with that cockney accent of hers) and she starts off in annoying manner, baiting Steven and giving the impression of being an know it all, but she settles down from The Plague (Episode 2 of the Ark) onwards, and becomes rather more likeable actually.
When Dodo's cold causes an outbreak, they suspect that the travelers are agents from Refusis, their chosen destination, trying to prevent their colonization of that planet; this immediately suggests that the Guardians are determined to colonize the planet whether the native inhabitants like it or not.
Since it is her cold that almost wipes out the human race, she is immediately given an active role, which is good way to introduce a new companion, and she immediately comes across as likeable enough, in large part due to the compassion and guilt brought out by the tragedy she unwittingly caused.

This explains a lot of Dodo's behavior in the subsequent TV story The War Machines, such as her enslavement by WOTAN and her subsequent departure, in which she couldn't even face the Doctor.
She gets expanded on and given more of a personality than she had on screen, but that in itself is not necessarily a good thing if the "newly revealed" person is stupid, unlikeable, and does incredibly foolish things for no apparent reason.
Meanwhile Dodo is the token innocent in a decadent world, explicitly targeted for corruption by one of her new-found friends (though it doesn't quite work out as he planned).

Stevens' life gets worse and worse as he discovers he's been a pawn of the Master the whole time, and is arrested for the murder of Dodo Chaplet, his lover.

The scene where Dodo tries to extract information from a Doctor dazed by a phone call from WOTAN is excellent, and Polly under the influence has her moments too.
In stark contrast to the promising new arrivals on the companion front, Miss Dodo Chaplet is very poorly acted and written, and i have to say it was a relief when she did go so early into the story, as Lane's poor performance was a millstone around the story's neck early on.
Dodo, despite being controlled by a logical, computerized mind, cannot come up with a convincing cover story and her attempts to capture the Doctor ("Let's go down into this dark alley, Doctor!") aren't exactly subtle.

Dodo Chaplet is perhaps the companion of the Doctor most in need of fleshing out.
Recognising that Dodo seemed entirely at home in the TARDIS in 'The Ark' (simply disbelieving that it could travel through time), Steve Lyons undertakes a story which establishes Dodo as part of the TARDIS crew and sees some travel in space (from England to America) that still allows her scepticism to be in place.
Mr Lyons is far kinder in his approach to Dodo than some other authors have been (see 'The Man in the Velvet Mask' and 'Who Killed Kennedy?'), but I really wonder why authors are so obsessed with giving Dodo a sex life.
