And that was it, prematurely ended by the new editorial team at the Radio Times! If all had gone to plan there would have been two more ten part stories. The two part Coda was the replacement, written to quickly round off the strip's run. Gary Russell explained more about his aborted plans for the comic strip on the Doctor Who Newsgroup rec.arts.drwho (RADW) on the 27th of September 1999 as follows:
"There were two more ten-part stories - in which Stacy was revealed to be a Zygon replacement (they were to have been the villains from the Victorian tale we did finish [Perceptions] - and then added that awful Coda to).
Story one was on an ice planet*, story two took them to the Zygon homeworld and saw Ssard rescuing the fair damsel which started the romance that finished up in Placebo Effect **."
** This story would have been called Deceptions.
** Placebo Effect is Gary's BBC Eighth Doctor book, published in 1998 (ISBN 0-563-40587-2), which effectively picks up the story from where it is left in Coda and neatly fits Stacey and Ssard (and the strip) into the same continuity as the BBC books.
