An adventure in time, not space, but surely one that would have seen Ace settle down (of sorts) to enjoy (and likely criticize at the same time!) the splendour and majesty entitled to being a proper 'lady' of ye olde world times, in this case Dorothee of Paris in 1887, as eventually revealed by the character's creator Ian Briggs in his novelisation of The Curse of Fenric. And, let's face it, she likely had a spare can of un-ladylike 'nitro nine' up her lengthy skirts in case of emergencies!
A lovely posed portrait session of actress Sophie Aldred used as the basis for a character painting discovered by Ace and the Doctor within Windsor castle, in a brief deleted scene from the series landmark 25th Anniversary season story, Silver Nemesis!
