Character history
Adam first appears in "Dalek", cataloguing extraterrestrial artefacts in an underground bunker in Utah called the Vault. Henry van Statten has been collecting these artefacts for years, reverse engineering them to create technologies such as broadband Internet which he then sold. Adam is also a genius, having successfully hacked into the United States Department of Defense computers when he was eight years old, nearly causing, in his own words, World War III. He is eventually recruited by van Statten.

Van Statten has one living specimen in his museum, which he terms a "metaltron", but is actually a Dalek. The Dalek manages to break free and slaughter its way through the base, and Adam finds himself running from it along with Rose, the Doctor's companion. At the end of the episode, Rose asks the Doctor to take Adam along with them in the TARDIS as Adam has told her earlier that he has always wanted to see the stars. It is implied that she also finds Adam attractive. Despite the Doctor's skepticism about Adam as a potential fellow traveller, he agrees.

Adam's travels with the Doctor and Rose do not last long. During "The Long Game", taking place in the year 200,000, Adam is overwhelmed by the wealth of information and technology available to him and very quickly gives in to temptation. He has an advanced computer interface port (activated by a snap of the fingers) installed in his head that partially reveals his brain so he could access the future's computer systems, and attempts to transmit information back to 21st century Earth using Rose's modified mobile phone, dubbed the "Superphone". The 21st century is the present century of the Anno Domini (common) era, in accordance with the Gregorian calendar. ...

Discovering this breach of his trust, the Doctor returns Adam to his home despite Adam's apologetic pleading, leaving him there after destroying the answering machine which had received the information. The Doctor observes that Adam will have to live a quiet life from now on, lest someone discover the implant in his head and dissect him to uncover its secrets. The ease at which this could happen is demonstrated when Adam's mother returned home and snaps her fingers, inadvertently activating the implant. What happens to Adam next is, as yet, unchronicled.
Adam is the only on-screen companion to be actually expelled from the TARDIS crew due to bad behaviour.
On the DVD audio commentary for the episode "Dalek", writer Rob Shearman reveals that in early drafts, Adam was the son of Henry van Statten.

As well as being the first male companion since Turlough, Adam is the first companion to never have any scenes inside the TARDIS. Even though we see him going into and coming out of the TARDIS (meaning he must have been in the console room), Adam was never seen in the console room.
Other appearances In the week in which "The Long Game" was first broadcast, the website "Who is Doctor Who?" announced that "14 year-old Adam Mitchell from Nottingham" had won a competition arranged by van Statten the previous week. Adam's winning essay on "Why I Want To Meet An Alien" focuses on acquiring advanced knowledge from them ("I don't think it's cheating, really. It's just a shortcut"), foreshadowing both his work for van Statten and his actions in the 2001st century. The canonicity of the material on the website is unclear. The 2005 series revival of the long-running British science fiction television programme Doctor Who features several tie-in websites produced by the BBC website team that viewers can access on the Internet. ...
