Peri vs. Mel

[Deastrumquodvicis]

I've been thinking. Which companion do people prefer and why?

I prefer Peri, personally. Don't know why, it's just that I've never liked Mel. (Mind you I haven't actually seen her role in Trial of a Time Lord yet) Perhaps it's her voice. Or perhaps it's just that I can relate more to Peri.

I kinda of liked Mel. I heard that she's the least popular companion in history which I don't really get. Then again I'm not so much of an early Sixth Doctor fan. I'm a fan of Colin from the moment he gets put on trial. I know Peri complains a lot, but sometimes I wonder if it's because she's just a grumpy type or whether it's really because she gets treated rough and misses Peter Davidson. I can see why.

Oh, deary deary deary dear. Now I've seen the last half of Trial of a Time Lord, I'm neutral here! Mostly because in Vervoids, she's definitely my proxy! I'd so do that! Hmms...
