"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!

So glad you enjoyed this one! This is one of my favorite stories of the entire classic run; IMO very few others match it in terms of artistic craft and feel.

I always imagined (semi-seriously) that the Doctor came up with the "noblest Romana" thing ages ago and thought it'd be a good way to say goodbye if she ever decided to go. To me, that's why he throws it in at the last second; like he just remembered he'd planned on saying it and thought he'd better get it in before he missed his chance.
