Louise first played the part of Leela, Warrior of the Sevateem in “The Face of Evil” (1977) and went on to become a travelling companion to the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) starring in two seasons of the show.
2013 saw the 50th anniversary of the show culminating in a huge three day celebration in London (listen to the interview with Graham Norton here). Now, in 2024, Louise continues to play Leela in the Big Finish audio productions, with the latest Fourth Doctor stories.
A word from Louise
“To every loyal Doctor Who fan out there. I can’t thank you enough for your letters and compliments and support since those heady days of Leela, Warrior of the Sevateem. That job was just 14 months of my life four decades ago, and still I am remembered for it, thanks to you.
Here’s to 2024… or to whatever year your imagination may care to take you. May you be blessed with everything you need and most of what you wish for.” – Louise Jameson
