Mandy Tanner

Mandy Tanner was a twelve year old girl travelling aboard the Starship UK. She was friends with Timmy, and whilst she got good marks in a test, he received a zero and was consequently sent below.

Mandy knew he was sent below due to his disappearance. She was being watched by The Doctor and Amy Pond from the TARDIS, and later on in London Market. She confronted Amy, after having noticed that the Doctor had deliberately pickpocketed her.

She and Amy then found a hole in the road, and Mandy tried to warn her not to go in the tent above the hole. Amy went in and came back out in shock, then she was knocked out by the Winders. Mandy waited for her in the voting booth, and explained to the Doctor, who had just joined them, that everyone chooses to forget what they have learnt. When the Doctor pressed the Protest button, Mandy was locked outside, whilst Amy and the Doctor were dropping down a shoot, to the beast below. The Queen then approached her in a mask and this scared Mandy, but she showed herself, and Mandy went with her to find the Doctor and Amy. They found her, and witnessed the queen shoot some Smilers. She was then taken to the tower of London with them all, and found Timmy. A part of the star whale then approached Mandy and Timmy, and was gentle with them. Amy then realised that the Star Whale volunteered for the job of taking the ship, due to it not wanting to see the children cry. She was noted by the Queen as being very brave (DW: The Beast Below).
