Found something very interesting yesterday -
gingerminx... Oh lord, I knew I wasn't alone! :)
And in case you need more persuading that there was a viable slash pairing in Dr Who long before Captain Jack Harkness, then have a look here.

Date: 2006-09-03 10:42 pm (UTC)I adored Turlough, in a wow-he's-evil-but-strangely-hot kinda way from the moment he turned up. And Planet of Fire was the only story I taped and kept from the days when videotape was freaking expensive. But although I had an inkling of what slash was at the time--I was a teen into Star Trek and had heard the term bandied around, in a "isn't that sick" sort of tone--it would be years before I realized that *I* was a slasher and further realized why Five and Turlough had so got under my skin.

Date: 2006-09-03 11:12 pm (UTC)I loved Turlough, was one of my all time fave companions! That school uniform certainly clung in all the right places!

Date: 2006-09-03 11:17 pm (UTC)Fast forward a few years, and I found Turlough / Five slash online, and went to find the author -
Been downhill ever since. I blame Turlough for everything, including the fact that I've just been futzing about in links all over the place trying to find myself a nice picture: decided I need a ginger icon! Couldn't find what I wanted, bleh.

Date: 2006-09-04 08:11 am (UTC)But I think it's unfair to blame everything on Turlough - are you trying to say you were pure and unsullied until 1983? I find that very hard to believe! ;)
