Joshua Naismith

Joshua Naismith was a 21st century Earth billionaire who played a major role in the plans of the newly resurected Master. He lived in Great Britain and was known to employ a private army and keep a large stable. He was responsible for Neon, a phone advertised on the side of the 200. He also wrote the book Fighting the Future.

Biography
After the fall of the Torchwood Institute, he acquired the Immortality Gate, a device of Vinvocci design. He captured the Master and forced him to repair it. He wanted to use it to give his daughter Abigail immortality. Instead, the Master used it to turn everyone in the world into a copy of himself, including Naismith. The Master's work was undone by Rassilon, and Naismith and his daughter fled from their mansion, witnessing Gallifrey about to crash into Earth. Naismith and Abigail were later mentioned to have been arrested for "crimes undisclosed", and put into prison. (DW: The End of Time)
