John Frobisher

Frobisher was the Permanent Secretary to the Home Office and the civil servant placed in charge of the 456 incident.

Profile
Passionate and driven, his job became increasingly difficult when all around him begin to shirk any responsibility for the disaster that was unfolding.

He was part of the civil service and as such worked for the state on the prime ministers orders. He witnessed the 456 coming to earth with Dekker and was the first person to talk to the 456.

He was in charge of talking to the 456 and give information back and forward from the goverment. He was mainly used by the Prime Minister so that he would not take the blame for anything that unfolded in the dealings with the 456 and because Frobisher was 'expendable' in the eyes of the government. From that point on the Prime Minister refused any connection to what was happening putting solely Frobisher in charge.

He wanted Jack Harkness dead since he knew what really happened in 1965. This would stop Jack Harkness from spreading what they had done with the children in 1965 to the world.

When there was the meeting to figure out to give 10% of the children Brian Green told frobisher to figure out how to get the children to the 456 which he made saying that the children will be getting a shot to get rid of the stopping and the voiceing form the 456 being tapped into the children but of course they were really going to the 456.

Later he said to Brian Green that when the children get taking from the 456 they would say that the 456 took them and would tell the people of the world they did this.

He was informed by the Prime Minister, that he was to publicly hand his children over for 'inoculation,' in an attempt by the Government to portray themselves as the victims of the 456's actions, reassuring the public regarding the cover story and implicating the 456 as the real villain of the day. Knowing that instead his children would be sacrificed to the 456, he decided to murder his family and commit suicide. Bridget Spears (with knowledge of what Furbisher was about to do), made clear to Lois Habiba, that 'John Frobisher was a good man', and 'it wasn't his fault'. He was married to Anna, they had two daughters, Holly and Lilly.

He was assisted by Bridget Spears and Lois Habiba who helped to run his office.
