Lousy picture, can someone get a better one? james_anatidae 07:48, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)
User:scifiradioguy, all the text you added appears to be copied directly from [1]. Can you please confirm you are the author or have been permitted to add this, or else the additional material will need to be removed. (Khaosworks has rewritten some of it so the rest can be reworked too if necessary.) --TimPope 08:11, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Better picture?
Can anyone find a more up-to-date and flattering picture of Lis? There must be plenty of possibilities what with her recent appearance on Blue Peter and of course the forthcoming Dr Who appearance. The current picture on this site really doesn't do her justice.
Khaosworks - thanks for uploading the new picture. Definitely an improvement on the older one. :-)
- Also, can someone get a picture from her Doctor Who days, possible from the show itself? I'm sure there are plenty of screenshots on Wikipedia. --Howdybob 01:31, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

- I can, but it's not needed here for this article - there's a couple of shots of her at Sarah Jane Smith, which is a more pertinent location for them. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 01:54, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
- It's relevant here; it should go in the section about her time on Doctor Who. --Howdybob 05:31, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Added a biobox, persondata and a picture I found hidden on wikipedia (the copyright status of which I am extremely unsure.) What do you think? El Zoof 04:54, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sources and Accuracy
In the third paragraph of ‘later career’ it used to state “Sladen was very heartbroken when Jon Pertwee, who was her closest friend, on Doctor Who” it now states "Sladen revealed in an interview with the BBC that in May of 1996 when Jon Pertwee (her close friend) died, she was heartbroken and cried for weeks." which is a more accurate reflection of the qoute listed in the references section. this still needs to be cited, which i do not know how to do, and fleshed out into more than just an extremly small paragraph or possibly removed altogether.--Jacobpaige (talk) 09:40, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- i've now read the article in question and have come to realise that the whole paragraph was a complete distortion of her actual words. the relevent paragraph in the interview reads "Tom Baker was always very sweet to me. It was in our interests to get on, but it was never forced. I adore seeing him now. No-one else understands what it was like. I was very sad when Jon Pertwee died. Doing the two radio stories (Paradise of Death and The Ghosts of N-Space) had brought a great deal of enjoyment to us both and given us a new relationship. We had both mellowed. Although I hadn't seen him much since then, when he died I realised how much I missed him because he was my Doctor. If I go to a convention now, Ian isn't there and Jon isn't there and you feel a bit lonely! Jon and Tom were two very different gentlemen in the way they worked – Jon enjoyed being much more protective towards the companion – and I liked the difference." Which implies that they liked each other but weren't particularly close at the time of his death.--Jacobpaige (talk) 10:38, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
