^^^ it's that word 'cancer' isn't it?? you can't help thinking it's a battle to survive, yet many have. Kylie is going strong again.

Hope Janet is okay soon

Anyone's who's ever met Janet, or has heard her spiky commentaries on the DVD's will know that she has far more spirit and energy and fight in her than most people. She won't let this beat her.
Brave heart Janet.

Awful news. Let's hope we don't lose another DW companion actress to that evil disease . . .

Your being very unfair there. No need to be so nasty.

What a lovely way to put it. "Brave heart Tegan" is one of my favourite lines.

I wish Janet all the best.

I always thought Janet Fielding put a lot of her own fiesty spirit into playing Tegan and hopefully she can use that same spirit to get through this.

Really hopes she does and gets better soon.

Absolutely gutted by this news. Have been having a 5th Doctor rewatch with commentaries recently so plenty of Janet at full blast livening things up and always ready for a laugh. Can only wish her all the best and hope she's around for a long time to come.

Very tempted to make this my first ever convention.

The good (and bad) news is that tickets have all sold out now.

Well given that cancer is common enough that 1 in 3 people are likely to get it in their lives it really is not surprising that in Doctor Who's history that a number have suffered, from the disease.

I've lost 3 relatives to it already and another 3 have had it.

Oh well, I was more motivated to contribute than go anyway. Good to see it sell out so quickly, I'll just have to donate directly.

I'm sure nothings going to happen in 2012. We'll survive, and I'm sure Janet will to! Here's to a speedy recovery for her!

Agreed, we all care for the professionals who worked so hard on Doctor Who especially the classic era where shooting times were so narrow.

Its nice to see how much Doctor Who fans care about the cast and crew that helped make our favourite show. I realy hope Janet sees this, hopefully it will cheer her up. One of who's most underated companions, and 100% in need of a return for the 50th x
