Doctor Who: The Newbies Guide

The Android Invasion

This is the fourth story in Season 13.

Doctor

The Fourth Doctor dresses in a rather bohemian outfit, notable for its long scarf. He is somewhat alien, willing to play the fool, and almost never gets on with authority figures.

Companion(s)

Sarah Jane Smith is a journalist who, in The Time Warrior, sneaked into UNIT in search of a story and ended up accompanying the third Doctor on a trip to the middle ages. Sarah has subsequently become the Doctor's travelling companion.

Recurring and Historical Characters

Harry Sullivan is a medical officer who was assigned to UNIT when the Doctor regenerated into his fourth incarnation. He spent some time travelling with the Doctor and Sarah after this point. Harry is very much an old-school gentleman.
