Ross Palmer

Ross Palmer was a special operative with UNIT who had psychic powers. He seemed to have been in a relationship with Natasha Alexander – another psychic working for UNIT. When Alexander and UNIT investigator Lockwood disappeared after the confrontation with the Nestene Consciousness on Sentinel Island, Palmer took Lockwood's colleague Dr. Sally Arnold to locate them in Millhampton. He was aware that Lockwood had a psychic connection with the Nestenes and also wanted to investigate this. Shortly afterwards, Alexander sacrificed herself to allow Palmer to escape an Auton and reach the captive Lockwood, just as Lockwood's death prevented the Auton take-over. Arnold returned to her UNIT office, furious at Palmer's perceived deception (BBV: Auton 3: Awakening).
