I lack the childhood nostalgia many people have for that era, and it coming directly after the Two era in the marathon probably made its chances worse!

I understand that you dislike it, but I don't think its popularity at this point is really due to childhood nostalgia! As I said, it really wasn't that available to most current DW fans at that age - generally people came in with one wave of New Who or the other and latched onto whichever Classic era they happened to prefer when they tried it. And no matter how unaccountable it seems, some people like Three! I hang around with an awful lot of them!

Jo is not Liz, and that step-down was undeniably sexist, but she's also not a bimbo - and an awful lot of her quirkiness is straight up Katy Manning herself, as you'll see if you catch any interviews or commentaries with her at any point.

Though I'm sure you will be delighted to see that whenever there is a multi-Doctor episode, Two and Three don't get on much, and bicker a lot!
