Leela's death/reincarnation?

I don't know how many people this wiki have heard "The Time Vampire" from Big Finish - it describes the end of Leela's life. I'm having a bit of trouble making sense of it, though. Apparently, Leela's not dead. She met her past self, causing some kind of reincarnation. But is she now reborn as a baby or is she a "fravishai tempora" (I have no idea if I'm spelling that right)? If anyone else has heard this audio play, please give your opinion on what actually happened to Leela so we can figure out how to properly edit the article on her.

I'll get around to writing up something eventually, but for now I'll just say that this story doesn't make sense in isolation. Remember, it's part three of a trilogy. If you were attracted to buy it because you heard it was "the one where Leela dies", you're going to be massively confused. It makes much more sense when experienced, as intended, after The Catalyst, and Empathy Games. CzechOut | 13:57, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
I was following the trilogy before "The Time Vampire", but "Empathy Games" is practically a stand-alone story and "The Catalyst" doesn't seem to shed much light on the complexities of the third installment. Still fogged. Bluebox444 21:37, May 26, 2010 (UTC)

I agree, I relistened to the three audio plays a few times over and the Time Vampire's still confusing. K-9 retrieves her after the events involving Leela meeting her Time Vampire Self, only to return through time at the beginning of The Time Vampire where she creates herself, then it seems like she returned back to herself as a baby and was born again? Or does she remain a time Vampire perhaps, after having created herself, where she eventually gets trapped in the cage and used to create ghosts? 14thLord 13:08, February 5, 2013 (UTC)

Leela's sight

Did she ever regain her sight after losing it in the Gallifrey Big Finish audio plays?

Hasn't been stated, at the end of Gallifrey: Panacea she didn't have her sight back and as that's the last produced so far we'll just have to wait an umm...see. --Tangerineduel 13:19, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

In the audio player: Gallifrey: Annihilation, Leela drinks vampire blood, which causes her to become young again and regain her sight. She also left Romana's company on the Alternate Gallifrey in Forever, but it's ambiguous whether or not she'd return. 14thLord 13:08, February 5, 2013 (UTC)

Gallifrey miniseries info needs to be deleted

Since my addition regarding Leela's appearance in the Jago & Litefoot series has been deleted without explanation I must assume the audios are no longer considered acceptable in this wiki. If no one has any objection (don't worry, I'll wait), I'll go ahead and delete the references to the Companion Chronicles and Gallifrey series. 68.146.64.9 20:18, February 21, 2011 (UTC)
