{{quote|Played by: Janet Fielding (1981-84)}}
 
A brash [[Australia (continentcountry)||Australian]], inadvertently kidnapped from 1981 just as she was about to start a new job as a flight attendant. Created to help sell the show to Australia. Once described herself as "just a mouth on legs". One of a very few companions seen to pilot the TARDIS, albeit not very well. Longest-serving companion if you count by consecutive years active.
 
* [[Eighties Hair]]: The short, Sheena Easton variety.
