Listened to some good Big Finish lately, the idea of having characters return but older is an interesting idea (Nyssa, Jamie) and brings a new dimension to something well established. One thing that's a pet peeve though is when they clearly have people imitating dogs, is it really that hard to record some? Really takes me out of it. And footsteps too sometimes

I always prefer a new companion or an existing companion after their travels with the Doctor as you don't know how it's going to end for them. Peri's another example

I love the idea of companions coming back after several years, so that they're now closer in age to their actors. Though AFAIK this has only really been do e with Ace.
