Rickston Slade

Rickston Slade was a businessman who was aboard the Starship Titanic when it was sabotaged. Arrogant and selfish, he was also a bully, as he kept offending Foon Van Hoff and her husband Morvin, even when they were all fighting for survival.

Thanks to the Doctor, Rickston was one of the few survivors of the disaster, and ended up a wealthier man afterwards, having previously transferred all of his shares into rival companies of Max Capricorn. Due to Rickston's inappropriate satisfaction at the conclusion of the Titanic's voyage, Bayldon Copper pointed out to the Doctor that, although Rickston would not have been the one person he would have chosen to survive, if the Doctor could decide who lived and who died, it would make him a monster.
