Soldier (Greeks Bearing Gifts)

A soldier served in the British Army during the early 19th century. He was with a prostitute named Mary in a forest in Cardiff in 1812. When she said something which the soldier found offensive (suggesting that it was his "first time"), he slapped her twice. In response, Mary scratched his face and ran further into the forest. She was possessed by an Arcateenian when the soldier caught up. He shot her but, as she was possessed, she survived and killed him. Almost two hundred years later, in 2007, his remains were found and analysed by Torchwood Three. (TV: Greeks Bearing Gifts)
