Dr who - USA: Day Four


Miss Brown - better known as Peri - became the Time Lord's first American companion and was by his side when he regenerated in the following adventure. She initially endured a rocky relationship with the Sixth Doctor, with arguments and disagreements rife in the TARDIS. But as his character stabilised their friendship grew smoother and she proved a staunch ally as he fought Daleks, Cybermen, the Master and many more monsters.

Peri was played by Nicola Bryant and travelled with the Doctor from early 1984 to 1986. She bowed out in a story called Trial of a Time Lord, bidding farewell to the TARDIS to start a new life with Yrcanos, a warrior king whom the Doctor encountered on Thoros Beta.

The wallpapers below offer some snapshots of Peri's adventures across the cosmos. The Doctor may have travelled with companions from as far afield as Australia and Gallifrey, but Perpugilliam Brown, the student from the States, was the first American companion. And for that, we salute her!
