Have you ever heard any of the Kaldor City audios?

Only the fact of their existence.

They're pretty good, actually. Some nice tie ins to Blake's 7, but the fact they build towards the return of the Fendahl is pretty cool

Bit sad when he died

Could you imagine if he had lived and traveled with the doctor? Might have been more popular than K-9 (though I have no problem with the robot dog)

He would have been easier for the production team to work with I think it would have been great. One of the things that I could never understand was why they never used Kamelion very much in the series. Given he could change form it would have taken about five minutes to come with a reason for him to be an actor rather than the robot, and it would have been brilliant.

Capt-Blackadder In reply to DoctorRy [2013-02-28 01:16:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I pretty much forgot Kamelion existed until Planet of Fire. They almost might as well have not taken him. He could have been useful in the Resurrection of the Daleks

I think everyone forgot Kamelion existed until Planet of Fire He was the most pointless companion ever, but there was actually so much they could have done with him...

Capt-Blackadder In reply to DoctorRy [2013-03-01 23:48:08 +0000 UTC]

Maybe they thought that he would be too much of a deus ex machina, and only wanted him to lead to Peri's intro (did anything else happen in that episode by the way )

DoctorRy In reply to Capt-Blackadder [2013-03-03 16:40:07 +0000 UTC]

Nah, apparently the robot was too hard to program and the guy who created him died not long after the first story, so pretty much no one knew how to use him. As such, lock him away and never speak of him again (except until someone remembered him...although there was another story which had a deleted scene featuring Kamelion...)

Err, yeah, aside from Peri in a pink bikini (which is definitely the highlight of that story) the Master apparently dies and Turlough goes home

Capt-Blackadder In reply to DoctorRy [2013-03-04 03:55:02 +0000 UTC]

So he just sat in a room in the TARDIS and then suddenly activated and thought, "this is my chance to see Peri in a bikini," and then he died happy knowing he got to see her in all her glory. Sounds like I wrapped up Kamelion's story quite accurately

Hahahah How awesome to think that Kamelion was actually just a dirty perv. I have this mental vision of every time Tegan took a shower, she would turn around and find Kamelion just standing there with a towel

Capt-Blackadder In reply to DoctorRy [2013-03-07 23:43:52 +0000 UTC]

That sounds like something from the deleted scenes That also helps explain why Tegan didn't like him and why she left. (And everyone thought that it was the daleks)
