The actress' name, by the way, is Lalla Ward.  She actually first
appeared in "The Armageddon Factor", one episode before Romana
regenerated (involving the last segment to the key of time).  She is
also one of my personal favorites, I guess because her and the Doctor
got along so well.  And, in fact, after Lalla left the show, Tom Baker
and her did get married.  Unfortunately, the marriage only lasted about
a year because their careers went in different directions (not because
of any personal problems).
