Steven TaylorSteven Taylor is a fictional character played by Peter Purves in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. A space pilot from Earth in the future, he was a companion of the First Doctor and a regular in the programme from 1965 to 1966. Steven first appeared in the serial The Chase, when the Doctor and his companions found him on the planet Mechanus where he had crash-landed two years before. He joined the TARDIS crew and continued to travel with the Doctor and Vicki after the conclusion of the story. Steven was a strong-willed individual, who was more capable when there was something physical to do than when there was thinking to be done. He followed the Doctor through The Daleks' Master Plan, a dark and dangerous adventure that took the lives of Sara Kingdom and Katarina. Steven had a finely developed sense of right and wrong, and placed a high value on human life. He argued with the Doctor when he refused to prevent the events of The Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve. Steven was ready to part company with the Doctor over the deaths that happened, in particular that of a woman named Anne Chaplet. He rejoined the Doctor, however, at the same time that they acquired a new travelling companion, a young woman by the name of Dorothea "Dodo" Chaplet, who was apparently a descendant of Anne's. Steven's journey eventually ended during the The Savages, when he decided to accept the responsibility of leading the combined society of Savages and Elders that was attempting a lasting peace. His life beyond that was not explored in the series. Taylor,Steven
