Aw, that's too bad. I've been impressed by Yasmin Paige's performance as Maria, it'll be a shame to see the character leave. One of the highlights of the show, IMO.

Yeah, I'll miss Maria and Alan (he wins father of the year award), too. I wonder why the decided to write her out so soon and yet kept Clyde?
Pity, but at least it's for a good reason (as oppose to contract negotiations breaking down or some bullshit like that).
Indeed.
Well, he was an alien, but by his species standards, he was a teenager (but a highly educated one...well, at least in mathematics).
Adric is divorced from any personal or familial context- however old he is, he doesn't feel like a child in quite the way Maria does.
Anyway, keeping her alive allows for the possibility of the character's return in a third series- RTD hints that she and her family might return in the future.

not sure how him being a teenage, or good at maths make it any different, however to guess I would say he was 16 or 17, which is not quite as bad as killing 14 year old Maria Jackson.Well, he was an alien, but by his species standards, he was a teenager (but a highly educated one...well, at least in mathematics).
but theres only so many seats in SaraJanes car, she cant fit Maria, Rani, Luke & Cylde in there, its not like the TARDIS where the Doctor can have all his ex companions meet up inside it.
Still future Maria episodes are something worth not killing her for, maybe she can return when she & Luke head off to university
I'm sure Rani and her family would be moving back out if Maria returned full-time.
that seems unfair on Rani, to only ever be Maria's stand in.
I don't think so- we have no way of knowing whether Rani is intended as a permanent or temporary replacement. Even if she's only going to be in S2, they're not going to sabotage the character by saying as much.
yeah this isnt on BBC 3 you know.They could have Mickey join the group. I can see it now. Mickey Smith living across with Alan. They start as roommates. Then we'll see where it goes.
Which channel would have had Maria and Alan fighting over who got to take Mickey to dinner and a movie?
