I was worried you'd hate this being the way K9 left the show. Years later, when doing the commentary, writer Steve Gallagher wished he could've built up to Romana's decision to leave a bit more. Rather rushed through but still very fitting, as you said. I'll miss them too.

"You won't get the Doctor's help by pointing guns at him.", Romana, "Warriors' Gate" Although not mentioned in the credits, Graeme Harper did some directing in this story (the original director was fired and later reinstated). So this can be considered Graeme Harper's first opportunity in Doctor Who as director. Graeme will do more Classic Who stories and then, later, a bunch of New Who episodes in David's run - and he also did some Sarah Jane stories. I did like the repetition of the dialogue between the Doctor and Romana, and then Romana and Adric about staying behind in the TARDIS. "I'll miss you. You were the noblest Romana of them all.", The Doctor, "Warriors' Gate" I like a Shakespearean reference as much as the next person, but this line never worked for me. I mean, what Romanas can the Doctor be comparing: Mary vs Lalla? No, they were both absolutely fantastic. Thanks for pointing out that there was more-to-do here and therefore we can end our story with work unfinished. I had not thought of that aspect of it. "Will Romana be all right?", "All right? She'll be superb!", Adric and the Doctor, "Warriors' Gate" Romana and K9 will be superb!
