** After this story, however, additional adventures have been told which are set much closer to ''The Marian Conspiracy'' than ''Thicker Than Water''. Moreover, her appearance in the ''[[Past Doctor Adventures]]'' was part of a plan to make her a regular companion in the PDAs and predates the way her character was written out of the audio series. However, ''Instruments of Darkness'' proved to be her only appearance in the PDAs. | ** After this story, however, additional adventures have been told which are set much closer to ''The Marian Conspiracy'' than ''Thicker Than Water''.

** However, the novel range was cancelled before additional Evelyn stories could be penned, leaving her exit and subsequent first meeting with Mel at odds with the way both events were depicted in audio. Nevertheless, it is curious that [[Gary Russell]], who wrote ''Instruments of Darkness'', allowed this contradiction since he was the producer of ''Thicker Than Water''. Russell later somewhat addressed the issue in the novel ''[[Spiral Scratch]]'', in which it is suggested, though not clearly delineated, that the novel range and the audio range occur in two separate realities. | ** However, the novel range was cancelled before additional Evelyn stories could be penned, leaving her exit and subsequent first meeting with Mel at odds with the way both events were depicted in audio.

* Along with [[Charlotte Pollard]], [[Thomas Brewster]] and [[Liv Chenka]], Evelyn is one of only four companions created by Big Finish who have been depicted meeting two incarnations of the Doctor, namely the [[Sixth Doctor]] and the [[Seventh Doctor]]. After serving as the former's companion for several years, she met the latter in the audio stories ''[[Thicker Than Water (audio story)|Thicker Than Water]]'' and ''[[A Death in the Family (audio story)|A Death in the Family]]''. Prior to these encounters, she had observed the Seventh Doctor from afar. The same is also true with respect to the [[Fifth Doctor|Fifth]] and the [[Eighth Doctor]]s. On that occasion, she described the Fifth, Seventh and Eighth Doctors as "lovely," seeming like "a rather jolly man" and "charming" respectively.
