Augustus Pond was Tabetha Pond's husband and Amy Pond's father. He was also Rory Williams' father-in-law, and the maternal grandfather of River Song and (by adoption) Anthony Williams.

Biography

Augustus met his wife at some point after 1984. (PROSE: Nothing O'Clock) He and his family were from Scotland before moving to Leadworth, Gloucestershire. August and Tabetha were lost to the Time Field and erased from reality some time before Easter 1996. Then-seven-year-old Amy was raised by her Aunt Sharon. After reality was rebooted by the Doctor's use of the Pandorica and his exploding TARDIS, Augustus and Tabetha were restored to reality and attended Amy's wedding to Rory Williams on 26 June 2010. (TV: The Big Bang)

Behind the scenes

  • Augustus Pond shares his first name with that of the first Roman emperor. Given Amy's noted interest in Roman history, this may not be a coincidence.
