Charley Pollard was a female Human companion of the Eighth Doctor.

She was born on 15th April 1912 into a well-to-do family; her mother was Lady Louisa Pollard and she had two sisters, Margaret and Cecelia. Charley and her siblings grew up in a manor house in Hampshire, looked after by servants. Charley rebelled against this existence and, styling herself an Edwardian adventuress, ran away from home seeking excitement. Making an appointment to meet a young man in Singapore on New Year's Day 1931, she stowed away on board the R101 disguised as a male member of the crew. There, she met the Doctor and together they discovered the secret mission the airship was on. She was rescued from the fated crash of the R101 by the Doctor and taken on board the TARDIS as his newest companion.

Behind the scenes

  • Counting audio and televised adventures together, Charlie is one of the longest-serving companions. She easily has more total recorded time in the TARDIS than Jamie, Tegan or Sarah Jane. Only Peri actually has more recorded hours of travel than she at present. However, now that her adventures in the TARDIS are ostensibly over, Charley could potentially be eclipsed by Nyssa by 2010. Sarah Jane, too, has more recorded time as a character, but not as a companion of the Doctor.
