EJA

Fleet Captain
Who do people think was the sexiest and most beautiful out of these two companions of the Fifth Doctor (Peter Davison)? Let's get voting!
 
This poll crucially misses out by far the sexiest of Peter Davison's companions (and I'm not talking about Adric.)
 
The Plank of Traken vs the Shrew of Brisbane? Please don't force me to choose! :angryrazz:

(Both actresses were and still are lovely, charming ladies of course. )
 
I suggest a wrestling match between the two to settle it once and for all. In....jelly.
 
Nyssa!!

Tegan is one of my favoruite companions. I really engaged with her when I was younger. I think it's because she was a liberated career woman, opinionated and still stylish all at once. Also, at the time (and still now, secretly) I loved her cabin crew uniform. Also, I think she and the Doctor looked good together... if you get my drift. :alienblush:
 
Tegan, I like a woman with a bit of fight in her, and lovely as Nyssa is I do want to slap her sometimes (especially in Earthshock).
 
If this were to chose my favorite, it would be hard to choose. But hottest, that's definitely Nyssa.

Kamelion? ;)
 
For me, Nyssa was beautiful but Tegan, while not exactly beautiful, was very very sexy. Perhaps a strange distinction but it's the best I can do just waking up from a nap I wasn't supposed to even have.
 
I nostalgically remember being an admirer of Tegan's sexiness at the time.

Or Peri Brown, as played by Nicole Bryant? I agree that she was seriously gorgeous, but for now I'm just looking at Nyssa and Tegan. Though I'll probably start a thread about Peri/Nicola soon...;)
 
I find it hard choosing between the two of them. They were both gorgeous in their own way. Nyssa had a kind of delicate, elfin beauty to her that's so adorable, and after watching her in Arc of Infinity I found her to be quite sexy when she's upset or angry :adore:. But then there's Tegan's white dress in the aforementioned story, and her black leather miniskirt in Resurrection of the Daleks :drool:.
 
Nyssa, easily - my big teenage crush. If I'd actually met the characters... interesting one. If I go for any one type of woman, it's 'intelligent, and awkward', so that's one point each for Nyssa and Tegan respectively...
I did get to interview Sarah Sutton years later, and found she hd a really sparky sense of humour once she'd relaxed. If she'd been allowed to put more of that side of herself into the onscreen character, she could have given Sarah a run for the top companion slot.
