- You may be looking for Minos (mythology).
Minos was an old hermit.
He and the Doctor were old friends, and since their last encounter, Minos adopted a vow of silence. He used to do dealings in parts for time machines, and when the Tenth Doctor and Donna landed at his home, Minos helped them to repair the Doctor's TARDIS.
