I think the writers confirmed that she really was 15. But I don't have paperwork that backs that up :-)

2022-08-20 20:36:23 +0000 UTCYeah, that's part of what makes her character so confusing. One minute she's extremely intelligent, strong-willed, and/or mature, and the next minute she's a clumsy, screaming, emotionally-fragile mess. 🤷♀️

2022-08-20 20:36:06 +0000 UTCWell, this does make me feel better. And, even if you did jump to that conclusion, I think I'll jump right with you ... even though he looks like he was in 30's. lol

2022-08-20 20:34:27 +0000 UTCBTW, why are we commenting on this in a reaction to Plant of Giants..? :D

2022-08-17 15:17:24 +0000 UTC...additionally, because she's Gallifreyan, Susan may be the teenage equivalent of our age fifteen - so,100 years old maybe! When Jess (Seskasays) reacted to this she fell into hysterics at the thought of Ian being involved in a penetration explosion. I have no idea why :/

2022-08-17 15:15:14 +0000 UTCThe problem I think also is Susan just feels younger than she is by the way she acts, and is treated, which I guess in those days was the norm. She may be 16, but she comes across emotionally as 12 often to me.

2022-08-17 13:46:53 +0000 UTCSusan was 15 when we first saw her, but by now she is 16ish. I believe David was roughly 18ish, although I have zero memory of where I got that info from, and maybe I just jumped to that conclusion. Susan was definitely that age, but you do make a good point about how such long-lived beings could confuse things a bit.
