Personality
History
Sullivan was a doctor in the Royal Navy, who was attached as medical officer to the United Nations Intelligence Taskforce, the military organisation to which the Doctor acted as the scientific advisor. Sullivan was first mentioned (though not seen) in Planet of the Spiders, when the Brigadier thought that the Third Doctor had gone into a coma. The Brigadier called Sullivan and asked him to come to the Doctor's laboratory, but told him not to bother after Sergeant Benton was able to wake the Doctor up by offering him a cup of coffee. In the next serial, Robot, after the Doctor's third regeneration, Sullivan was called in to attend him, and ended up travelling aboard the TARDIS with the Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith for several subsequent adventures.
Sullivan's last regular appearance was in the season thirteen opener Terror of the Zygons. At the conclusion of this story he is seen choosing to return to London by train rather than by TARDIS with the Doctor and Sarah, who continue their adventures without him. He does, however, reappear two stories later in The Android Invasion, both as the original Harry and an android double. This was the character's final appearance in the programme, and there was no proper "farewell scene" for him.
Harry is mentioned later as having been "seconded to NATO" and was last heard of "doing something 'hush-hush' at Porton Down." He eventually offered a job at MI5, which he accepted, and rose through the ranks until he attracted the attention of the Torchwood Institute.
