Featured Article
From the TARDIS Index File, the free Doctor Who reference.

Vicki was born on Earth. After her mother died, her father wanted to get away from Earth, and took a job on planet Astra in 2493. Before meeting the Doctor, Vicki and her father were on their way to their new life, when their ship crash landed on the planet Dido.

Vicki was not the only survivor of the crash. Initially most had survived, but one night all but Vicki and Bennett mysteriously died. Until she met the Doctor, Barbara Wright and Ian Chesterton, Vicki believed Bennett’s account of how the natives of Dido had killed her father and the rest of the passengers and crew.

Bennett could not walk, as far as Vicki was aware, and her study of medicine would have given her some knowledge, which would have allowed her to keep him comfortable while they waited for a rescue ship. She studied medicine 1 hour a week, and at the age of 10 she obtained a certificate in Medicine, Physics, Chemistry and other subjects.

Once Vicki learns the truth, and leaves Dido with the others, she is keen for adventure. Vicki is often bored with the travelling to their destinations, and the less adventurous moments of their lives. When the travellers are staying at a villa near Rome she quickly becomes bored, and disappointed that there is no adventure. Vicki’s innate sense of adventure is teamed with a sense of awe and wonder, and these never diminish during her travels with the Doctor. She is bursting with excitement when she first sees Nero, and the sight of Rome burning enthuses her. It is no doubt these characteristics which remind the Doctor of Susan, and Vicki certainly becomes a surrogate granddaughter.
