Just a note: it wasn't the fandom who got Roman to stick around. Miles and Kerry realised that they loved him so much they had to write more of him.

The character the fandom got to stick around was Velvet, and she's been in maybe four scenes. Nowhere near as much as Roman, who was kept purely because the writers loved him, not because the fandom loved him (though obviously we did too).
