Sergeant Zbrigniev (PROSE: Battlefield) or Zbregniev (PROSE: First Christmas) was a Polish soldier seconded to the United Kingdom branch of UNIT.

Zbrigniev began his service under Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart and was still with UNIT years later, serving under Winifred Bambera. (TV: Battlefield)

Behind the scenes

  • Despite its spelling in the episode credits and novelisation, Zbrigniev's name was actually pronounced in the serial as "Zbigniew", a real Polish name, indicating a disconnect between auctorial intent and production reality.
  • Also, Zbigniew was stated to have been killed by Mordred when the latter and Morgaine attempted to kidnap the nuclear missile.[source needed]
