Harold Chorley was a British television journalist. When the British government decided to allow only one correspondent into the London Underground to cover the British Army's fight against the Great Intelligence and its robot Yeti, Chorley was selected for the job.

At first he was proud to be chosen for this unique assignment, but when he realised the danger he was in, he panicked and attempted to flee. His disappearance caused several people, including Jamie McCrimmon, to suspect him of working for the Great Intelligence. (TV: The Web of Fear) For years after, he would attempt to reveal the existence of aliens and would keep being stonewalled by UNIT. (PROSE: The Forgotten Son original opening)

In the 1970s, he and his parallel counterpart hosted a daytime chat show called Chorley's People. (PROSE: Still Lives)

After leaving journalism, he supplemented his retirement fund by ghost-writing autobiographies. (PROSE: The Forgotten Son original opening)

With only a month left to live, Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart summoned Chorley to his nursing home and asked Chorley to help him write his memoirs. (PROSE: The Forgotten Son original opening)
