Polly
Polly (possibly Polly Wright, although no surname is used onscreen) is a fairly upper-class young woman in the 60s, working as secretary to Professor Brett on his WOTAN project, during which she's hypnotised by WOTAN. Afterwards, in company with Ben Jackson, a c0ckney sailor with whom she's developed a friendship, she inadvertently gets whisked off in the TARDIS. During her stay, she battles Cybermen, Daleks and Macra, among others, eventually being returned to the exact day of her departure.
Polly and Ben have a very "opposites attract" relationship, and seem close even though they're constantly quarrelling. Ben usually calls Polly "Duchess". Nothing is known of what happened to them after leaving the TARDIS, but in 2010 Sarah Jane suggests that Ben and Polly are running an orphanage in India.
