Artie Maitland[1] was the son of George Maitland and brother of Angie Maitland.

Biography[]

After Artie's mother passed away, Clara Oswald became his nanny. In 2013, he borrowed the book Summer Falls from Clara. (TV: The Bells of Saint John)

He and his sister discovered images through history of Clara and decided to question her. (TV: The Crimson Horror)

He was taken with his sister to Hedgewick's World of Wonders by the Eleventh Doctor and Clara. There, he was asked by the Doctor to remain in the room full of statues which Mr Webley had collected throughout his life while he investigated the Cybermites. He became afraid and when turning the light on, he was attacked by a Cyberman. Put into a walking coma and not fully upgraded, he was finally released when Mr Clever freed him and his sister once the Doctor sacrificed a chess piece in their game for control of the Doctor's mind. Clever threatened to have Webley kill them, but Emperor Ludens Nimrod Kendrick Cord Longstaff XLI used a hand pulse to deactivate him. Once the Cybermen were defeated, the Doctor returned Clara, Artie and Angie home. (TV: Nightmare in Silver)

Back in London, Clara prepared to make another of her mum's soufflés for Angie and Artie. When Clara fell asleep after reading a letter lined with soporific, George left the house and the Doctor agreed to take care of Angie and Artie. Angie and Artie wanted to go to the cinema, but the Doctor insisted they wait until Clara woke up. The siblings then tricked the Doctor into playing blind man's buff, which Clara realised after waking up was a ruse to get to the cinema. The Doctor, not amused, called them "little Daleks" for the prank. (TV: The Name of the Doctor)
