The '''Cybermen''' are a race of [[cyborg]]s who are amongst the most persistent enemies of [[the Doctor]].

(However, the First Doctor's detailed knowledge of the existence and history of the Cybermen's home planet of [[Mondas]], and [[Susan Foreman|Susan]]'s apparent familiarity with Cybermen in the [[Death Zone]], hint at a possible earlier encounter.) The Cybermen themselves are known to have first encountered the Doctor in his [[Second Doctor|second incarnation]] on [[Planet 14]], sometime prior to their first attempt to invade [[Earth]] in the [[1970s]].  They have since made numerous reappearances in their bid for world or [[Mutter's Spiral|galactic]] conquest.

Josephine Grant was placed in UNIT, against the Brigadier's wishes, by her Uncle - a high-ranking official in the UN. The Brigadier decided that Jo could replace Liz Shaw, who had returned to Cambridge, as the Doctor's research assistant. Secretly hoping that the Doctor's attitude would put Jo off UNIT, the Brigadier told the Doctor that Jo would be an admirable assitant.

Jo claimed to be a qualified agent, but she may have exaggerated about this, in the same way she exaggerated the extent of her A-Levels. After saying she took an A-Level in Science, she later revealed that "I didn't say I passed." That said, there can be no doubt of Jo's escapology abilities. She could ride a motorbike, use karate, pick locks, abseil, and even pilot a helicopter - all of which came in very useful during her time as the Doctor's assistant. These abilities combined with her enthusiasm proved Jo to be an asset to UNIT.
