Madge Arwell

Madge Arwell was the mother of Cyril and Lily Arwell and became a brief companion of the Eleventh Doctor. She was a terrible driver, given her tendency to bump into things even when parked. Her husband was Reg Arwell, a fighter pilot in the Second World War. Her efforts to save her children and herself caused Reg's original disappearance, but in the same moment, he was returned safe and well due to her strength.

She helped the Doctor out in 1938 and was told he would return her favour to him if she made a wish. The Doctor kept this word and returned in 1941 to give her children the best Christmas ever.

Later, as the Doctor bade farewell to her, Madge insisted he spend Christmas day with family. Madge's persistence led to the Doctor visiting his in-laws, Amy Pond and Rory Williams for Christmas dinner in 2013. (DW: The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe)
