Thomas Hardy


 * ''You may be looking for Hardy, a 26th century cargo ship crewman once encountered by the Doctor and Jo Grant

Captain Thomas Hardy was the master of HMS Victory during the Battle of Trafalgar, and the flag captain of Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson. When Ben, Polly and the Second Doctor arrived onboard the Victory, they were taken before Hardy, who seemed entirely suspicious of them. He believed them French spies or deserters from another ship. It was only because the trio had captured the interest of Nelson that they were not dealt with more harshly. (DWA: H.M.S. TARDIS)
