Shada promo pics

More pics of Lalla in one of her fancy hats.






Sources: BBC classic series website, here, and there's a Shada gallery here, and the Who Image Archive, here.

Fowl Knits


In the 1980s Lalla Ward wrote two books on knitting (Fowl Knits and Beastly Knits) and also one on embroidery. See here for more photos, including promo pics of Lalla and Tom.

Ah Lalla!


A few posts back we looked at a collection of pics from City of Death, so time to do a little look at Romana II, played by Lalla Ward. The 'school uniform' costume she wore in City was apparently her own idea, and she obviously likes hats, so here's a few more...




Lalla Ward originally portrayed Princess Astra in The Armageddon Factor (1979). Romana 'chose' her likeness for her second incarnation, travelling with the Doctor from Destiny of the Daleks (1979) through to Warriors' Gate (1981).

There's a Lalla gallery on the Beeb's classic series website, here, and on the the Who Image Archive, here. Top picture is from The Leisure Hive.

For more information on Lalla, see the Who wiki, here.

City of Death promo pics


Here's another collection of promo pics, this time relating to Who's first filming abroad, in Paris, for the Baker classic story City of Death, written by Douglas Adams.


Lalla's definately not letting hold of Tom's scarf!


There's a whole lot more higher res pics on the Beeb's classic Who website here.
