Tommy Pierce

Thomas "Tommy" Pierce (also known as Old Tommy) worked as Head of Alien Acquisitions at Torchwood One. By 2005, he was known as one of the old guard, having worked there before the move to Canary Wharf Tower and being rather old-fashioned.

Yvonne Hartman hired Rachel Allan as Tommy's personal assistant. Rachel sowed distrust among Torchwood by getting Tommy drunk and planting retcon on him, which everybody saw as an obvious framing. Tommy was suspended and Rachel was given his job. (AUDIO: New Girl)

Tommy returned to Torchwood after Yvonne was framed for the death of Dean and Pippa appointed Rachel as director. Like the others, he blamed Yvonne. (AUDIO: Through the Ruins) Yvonne was later reinstated and Rachel exposed and retconned. (AUDIO: Uprising)

Tommy assisted Yvonne and Ianto Jones in combating the Law Machines, falling for Fiona McAndrew in the process. (AUDIO: The Law Machines)
