Thanks to everyone who voted in Round Thirteen 
It was a close run thing this time around with one companion on their own at the top and two others just one point behind. So, with votes from 45% of you it's the "metal mutt" aka K9 that gets sent off for an early bath.
Four of you predicted K9 for a top five placing and, oddly enough each of you are people who had a clean sheet upto this point so you've all fallen from 5 predictions left to four:-
01=) 5 Predictions Left:
+ allisonbm2
+ Eowyn W
+ Gutted Girl
+ TimCypher
+ WelshNige
+ Wryip
07=) 4 Predictions Left:
+ Analysethis
+ brouhaha
+ carefactornil
+ chuffnobbler
+ crazzyaz7
+ kazzabee
+ Solamenn
+ solgang
+ syramu
+ unit4plus2
17=) 3 Predictions Left:
+ KrisHayward
+ Muttley76
+ SheMoore19
+ Verence
As with the last round then as you now need to pick which of the TWO companions listed below you like the least then send them to me via PM. The one with the most votes will be evicted from the game. If you'd like any that aren't evicted to roll forward into the next round all you need to do is type "auto" with your votes & any that have Survived will automatically roll forward into the next round. In the event of a tie cumulative votes will be taken into account.
Here's the Round Fourteen question:-
Some of the Classic series companions had rather poor send offs, particularly when you consider that most of them had spent months on the TV.
Do you think that the production team should have "done an Adric" with one of the other companions and killed them off?
If so, which companion should it have been and how should they have been killed off?
So, it's time to pick your TWO least favourite companions from:-
01) Jamie McCrimmon
02) Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart
03) Sarah Jane Smith
04) Harry Sullivan
05) Leela
06) Romana Mark I (Mary Tamm)
07) Romana Mark II (Lalla Ward)
08) Tegan Jovanka
Remember to submit them via PM!!!

I reakon Ace would have been a good one to kill off, would have made a more dramatic end to the classic series.
On a purely personal, vindictive level, I'm with the posters above on Mel! And Ace, while we're at it
Who could have been killed off? Leela would have had dramatic impact. Her death would have left the impervious fourth Doctor seeming a lot less infallible and confident. When to kill her off, though? Something noble, or something pointless?
Adric's death is a really shocking moment, and I think it has such effect because it's so unique. Kamelion's destruction also has a bit of wallop to it, as the Doctor is forced into "murder".
(Okay, so Sara and Katarina also die, and both deaths are awesome on the soundtrack, but they were only shortlived companions and no-one has seen those scenes since 1965!)
Votes PM'd. Really surprised that K9 has gone, and really surprised that Harry is still there.
No, not my lovely Ace!
