Letitia "Tish" Jones was a PR executive who was propelled into jobs well above her experience level because Harold Saxon was trying to draw her sister Martha Jones — and thus the Tenth Doctor — into his trap. To her own surprise, and her sister's mild suspicion, she was put in charge of the public events that launched Richard Lazarus' de-ageing machine. She later worked in Saxon's 10 Downing Street press office. In both capacities, she had significant interaction with the Doctor.
