Polly, sometimes called Polly Wright in spin-off material, is a
fictional character played by Anneke Wills in the long-running British
science fiction television series Doctor Who. A young woman from the
year 1966, she was a companion of the First and Second Doctors and a
regular in the programme from 1966 to 1967. Polly appeared in 9
stories (36 episodes). The only serial featuring Polly which is
currently complete in the BBC archive is her first, The War
Machines.Polly first appears in the First Doctor serial, The War
Machines, where she is working as a secretary to Professor Brett.
Brett develops the artificial intelligence known as WOTAN, and Polly
meets the Doctor (William Hartnell) and Dodo (Jackie Lane) when they
come to investigate it. Polly befriends Dodo and takes her to a London
nightclub called the Inferno, where they meet Ben Jackson (Michael
Craze) and try to cheer up the Royal Navy sailor. When Polly is
accosted by another patron in the Inferno, Ben comes to her rescue.
Eventually, Ben and Polly aid the Doctor in his fight against WOTAN
when the computer tries to take over the world. They are the bearers
of the news of Dodo's decision to stay in 1966 to the Doctor, and
accidentally get carried away in the TARDIS when they try to return
Dodo's key to the time machine.Polly, in contrast to Dodo, is a more
sophisticated and hip young woman of the 1960s â€" vivacious,
attractive, and alternately shy and aggressive. She and Ben make an
odd couple, but she is receptive to Ben's protective urges, and he in
turn finds her elegant and posh, giving her the nickname "Duchess".
Polly is present with Ben when the Doctor regenerates for the first
time into a new form (Patrick Troughton), and they continue to travel
with him. In The Highlanders (1966â€"67), Polly and Ben are joined on
the TARDIS by Jamie McCrimmon (Frazer Hines). Eventually, the TARDIS
finds its way back to 1966 London (in The Faceless Ones) on the very
day Ben and Polly had left (although about a year had passed for
them). They decide to remain behind to resume their lives without
disruption as the Doctor and Jamie travel on. Polly (Doctor Who) Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
