Last week, suffering various horrors, I went through all of Doctor Who mentally working out the most attractive female guest character...
Skipping stories with no candidates, they are: extra who poses with skeleton, Dyoni, n/a, Ping-Cho, Sabetha, Cameca, Carol, n/a, n/a, Jenny.
n/a, Poppaea, Vrestin, Maimuna, n/a, n/a, Edith, Beautiful Zelda from Galaxy Four, n/a...
Cassandra, Saloon Bar Girl, Ann, the lovely ladies of The Ark...
n/a, Kate, Nanina, Kitty, n/a, n/a. Can continue into Troughton era if wanted.
Continuing by popular demand. Janley, Kirsty, Ara, n/a, Chicki & Sunaa...
Samantha & Jean, Ruth, Kaftan, n/a.
Miss Garrett, Astrid & Fariah, Anne Travers...
Maggie, Tanya, Kando, Rapunzel...
Isobel, Vana, Gia, Madeleine...
...and Lady Jennifer. Phew. And that just about wraps it up for the 1960s.
Into the 70s, where the female characters sometimes don't even have names... UNIT Officer, Miss Dawson, Control Room Assistant, Petra.
n/a, Corporal Bell & Chin lee, n/a, Gail from Coronation Street, n/a, Anat, n/a, n/a, n/a...
Ruth, Queen Thalira and Lakis, n/a, Claire Daly...
The President of Earth, Latep, n/a, n/a, n/a, Jill Tarrant, Thalira, Rega. Not a lot of female guest stars in Pertwee era alas.
Hilda Winters (v. scary, reminds me of someone, can't think who), Vira, n/a, Bettan, n/a, n/a, n/a, n/a, Tessa...
Ohica, n/a, n/a, Lady Eldrad, n/a, n/a, Toos, Theresa the racist cockney prostitute. What a great era for women that was.
Adelaide, n/a, Thea, Marn, Tala...
Rodan, n/a, Nurse Xanxia & Mula, Lady Camper...
Madame Lamia, n/a, Princess Astra, Agella, Countess Scarlioni, Lady Adrasta...
Della, Teka and the dark-haired Anethan girl played by Cathy Munroe, they never finished it but if they had Claire, Mena.
Lexa, Keara, Camilla, Tharil girl...
Kassia and n/a (if you want to include Aunt Vanessa in your own list, go ahead, I'm just not including her in mine).
Davison era: n/a, Enlightenment, Todd, Elizabeth, Ann Talbot...
Snyder, Angela, Youth Hostel Receptionist, n/a, n/a, Kari...
Captain Rack, Lady Isabella, n/a, Karina & Preston...
Jane, Norna, Zena & Osborne...

A bonus nomination from the swinging village of Morten Harwood. And from the films, the film Dyoni.
