 Gusworld Blog » Blog Archive » Tegan returns!
In amongst the expected casting news for the first David Tennant-starring series was the revelation that Janet Fielding had finally been persuaded to return to the role of Tegan Jovanka for Big Finish’s excellent series of audio Doctor adventures.
I’ve seen Fielding — a feisty and intelligent woman who left acting some years ago to pursue a career in writing and administration — at two Doctor Who conventions in recent years: Whovention 2003 in Sydney, which marked her return to the convention scene after a decade-long absence, and Dimensions in Stockton last year.
Doubtless part of the appeal of this model to Fielding — who has stressed this will not lead to her continuing to make appearances in the CD series — is that it will allow some character development that wouldn’t be possible in the confines of Tegan’s original series chronology.
