Help! Trying to remember an episode


Was there a Third or Fourth Doctor episode where a female companion, or a possible companion candidate, dies at the end. I swear i remember an episode where a woman dies and the doctor walks away heartbroken. He's asked to stick around by UNIT or a group of soldiers who are celebrating victory thanks to the doctor. But at the same time, in a nearby sick bay, the woman dies and the doctor is so distraught that he walks away, hops aboard the tardis and goes off into time and space without saying goodbye to anyone.

No.

However the third Doctor is distraught when Jo Grant decides to leave to get married. He walks away, hops aboard Bessie and drives away. A sad ending of sorts.

THE GREEN DEATH.

This may have happened in NuWho but not in classic Who.
Adric was the only companion to die and The Doctor may have been upset , but the audience broke out the champagne to celebrate.

reply

No, not all of us did.
