Theo Lawson

Theo Lawson was a human teenager who auditioned for role of the Eighth Doctor's companion in 2010. (BFA: Situation Vacant)

He was a cyber-criminal who hacked into several multinational banks and acquired enough money for the rest of his life, thereby triggering the late 2000s recession in the process. At the time that he saw the advertisement for a travelling companion, the authorities were closing in on him and he felt that travelling in the TARDIS was his only means of his escape. When the opportunity presents itself, he reprogrammes Pallister's robots to obey his commands so that he can use them to take over Earth. (BFA: Situation Vacant)
