Keeping Up With The Jonses.

Oh happy day, have you seen the trailer for the classic Doctor Who Season Ten blu-ray Special Edition? Its a minisode with a returning Jo grant and her husband Dr Jones, returning to the Wholeweal community in Wales to face a barn full of giant hissing maggots. Spine tingling bloomin' good fun and endearingly emotional as Katy Manning channels her inner Jo. It is only a couple of minutes long but it serves as a love letter to times past and possibly an invitation to great times to be. Surely someone watching this sees fantastic mileage beyond this trailer in telling more tales using this pair of lovely adventurers.
             Katy Manning has done some outstanding work for Big Finish, demonstrating a versatility way beyond anything she was able to display during her time as The Doctor's assistant(And she did assist, as only true friends and capable agents can.) The world is now a very different place from the one when she flitted about it in The Tardis and Katy Manning has all the charisma and talent to pull off a show of her own, well equipped to deal with the absurdities of our age.
              Heres to more time in her and Mr Jones company.
