[edit] Wright
I have a question regarding Polly's surname of Wright. I had heard that Wright came from Polly's original character notes. If this is so shouldn't Polly be listed in the Companion Lists under the W's? As far as I know, Melanie's surname of Bush was never heard in the series but came from Mel's original character notes and yet she's still listed in the Companion List under B.
If Mel's surname of Bush can be accepted if it's only from the character notes then so can Polly's surname of Wright. -- Alan-WK 20:56, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
- The difference is that Polly's last name was never made public at the time, while Mel's last name was used in contemporary publicity and promotional literature. So it was never used in the same way that Mel's was. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 22:24, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
According to Anneke Wills herself - in her new autobiography - Polly never had a surname - Anneke is of the opinion that this has simply been invented by fans over the years, as has Polly's 'other' surname.
