You first met Dr Hugh when you were a child and he reappeared in your life as you prepared to get married to Ruari. You both travel through time with The Doctor.

You are very nationalistic and you would do anything to undermine Austria-Hungary. You and six friends have come to Sarajevo in Bosnia to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand. So far you have thrown bombs at him and missed. You had almost given up and gone for a sandwich in Schiller’s Cafe when the Archduke’s car does a three point turn directly in front of you. In real life, you shoot him in the throat and Sophie, his wife in the stomach and kill them both. This event sparks off the First World War. In this script, you don’t manage to kill either of them. You are travelling through space and time with Aimee and Ruari when he secretly alters the co-ordinates to land the time machine in Sarajevo in Bosnia on 28th June 1914. Ruari has decided to prevent the outbreak of the First World War by saving Archduke Franz Ferdinand from being assassinated. You know that it is against intergalactic law to interfere in a fixed point in time and that Ruari’s actions mean he will be tried in front of the Judges of the Shadow Counsell. You hire the best Addlepose Defence Lawyer and set about explaining the many origins of the First World War to get Ruari off the hook. Costume: Jacket, shirt and bow tie. Trousers at half mast.
