The Third Doctor and Jo Grant

from

Day of the Daleks

Jo: I thought the TARDIS was working again.
The Doctor: What gave you that idea?
Jo: Oh, being dragged off to an alien planet 500 years in the future, for example. You know, all that business with the miners and the colonists.
The Doctor: My dear Jo, the TARDIS was being operated under remote control by the High Council of the Time Lords.
Jo: Well, if it worked for them...
The Doctor: I don't want it to work for them. I want it to work for me.

Jo Grant was the niece of a cabinet minister who had her assigned to UNIT, and the Brigadier asked her to be the Doctor's assistant. She was trained in cryptology, escapology, safebreaking and explosives.

She made a good impression on her first assignment by getting hypnotised by the Master and trying to explode a bomb in UNIT HQ.

She left to get married and go down the Amazon.
