Hugh Curbishley

Colonel Hugh Curbishley was a war hero with a fondness for can-can girls, often hiding magazines of them in his military memoirs. He was married to Lady Clemency Eddison and had a son named Roger. He was paralyzed from the waist down and wheelchair-bound, but this was actually a trick. He feared Clemency would leave him for another man as she was still attractive. The Colonel's son was having a secret affair with a butler called Davenport, but Hugh knew and was surprisingly quiet.

In 1926, Roger helped host Clemency's party with honoured guest Agatha Christie. The murder of their friend Professor Peach led to the Tenth Doctor and Donna Noble's investigation. This forced Reverend Arnold Golightly to reveal himself as Clemency's long-lost son; he was drowned by Donna. The investigation ended with the only heir to their fortune being murdered by his sibling.. (DW: The Unicorn and the Wasp)
