SS Madame de Pompadour

The SS Madame De Pompadour was a starship built in the 51st century. It had a crew of 50 and a similar number of repair droids which were designed to repair the ship at any cost to themselves or the crew. (DW: The Girl in the Fireplace)

The ship consisted of a long cylinder with a large limb at each end. The limbs rotated counter to one another. The ship was known to contain smoking pods where the crew could smoke.

When it was 37 years old, the ship was damaged by an ion storm in the Dagmar Cluster. The Repair Robots immediately attacked the crew in order to use human body parts to repair the spacecraft. They modified the ship's warp engines to rip a hole through time to 18th century France so as to take the brain of the original Madame de Pompadour, for they believed that only it could serve as the new onboard computer. One of the holes through time briefly allowed the original Madame de Pompadour to set foot on the vessel, an experience that frightened her.(TS: Tardisode 4, DW: The Girl in the Fireplace)
