The '''First Doctor''' is the initial incarnation of [[The Doctor (Doctor Who)|the Doctor]], the protagonist of the [[BBC (Television Network)|BBC]] [[Science Fiction on Television|science fiction television]] series ''[[Doctor Who (TV Series)|Doctor Who]]''. He was portrayed by the actor [[William Hartnell]] from 1963 to 1966. Hartnell reprised the role once, in the tenth anniversary story ''[[The Three Doctors (Doctor Who Episode)|The Three Doctors]]'' (1973), although due to his ailing health the story was written so he would not have to appear very extensively.

Within the series' narrative, the Doctor is a centuries-old alien [[Time Lord]] from the planet [[Gallifrey]] who [[Time Travel in Fiction|travels in time]] and space in his [[TARDIS]], frequently with [[Companion (Doctor Who)|companions]]. When the Doctor is critically injured, he can [[Regeneration (Doctor Who)|regenerate]] his body; in doing so, his physical appearance and personality change. Hartnell's Doctor is the Doctor's "original" form. The regeneration [[Plot Device|plot device]] was introduced when Hartnell needed to leave the series, and consequently has extended the life of the show for many years.

His original companions were his granddaughter [[Susan Foreman|Susan]] ([[Carole Ann Ford]]) and her schoolteachers [[Ian Chesterton]] ([[William Russell (actor)|William Russell]]) and [[Barbara Wright (Doctor Who)|Barbara Wright]] ([[Jacqueline Hill]]). Hartnell's version of the Doctor was also the basis for the character played by the actor [[Peter Cushing]] in the 1965 and 1966 ''[[Dr. Who (Dalek films)|Dr. Who]]'' films, which do not share a continuity with the television series.
