I've loved Tara King ever since I first saw her back in 1986 or whenever it was. She wasn't always blessed with sympathetic writing but Linda Thorson makes her so loveable. I love that she can be truly kooky and eccentric and have fun with the role.
It was tough though as I also love Purdey but for me she comes alive when paired with Gambit - they are one in my eyes.

I think Purdey is the character Tara should have been.
Tara was a bit inconsistant. Purdey was well-rounded, albeit mad as a box of frogs.
I felt I fully understood Purdey but I still don't really know Tara. I don't think anyone did. I think they hit the ground running when they created Tara and she was a bit all over the place.
