Deborah once taught Miranda Dawkins and helped keep her safe from Ferran. Deborah was briefly the Eighth Doctor's companion. She spent several days in transit with him across the globe to steal the Atlantis. They used it to rescue Miranda, who was in a spaceship in Earth orbit. As a stowaway, Deborah was nevertheless one of the few Britons to fly on an American spacecraft. She was killed by a booby-trap in Miranda's room that Ferran had left for the Doctor. (PROSE: Father Time) The Doctor once expressed the wish that he, Debbie and Miranda could have been a family. File:CharStub.png
