Wilfred Mott

Wilfred was manning his newspaper stand in London, on Christmas Eve 2008, when he met the Doctor for the first time. At this point, Earth was aware of alien life and the threat they posed, and, given events surrounding the Sycorax (DW: The Christmas Invasion) and the Racnoss (DW: The Runaway Bride), believed that aliens might attack on Christmas. He claimed to the Doctor and Astrid to be the only person who has remained in London apart from Queen Elizabeth II (and her retinue in Buckingham Palace) as everyone else had fled into the countryside. He was angered when the Titanic hurtled over London.
