Francine Jones is the ex-wife of Clive Jones, the mother of Tish Jones, Martha Jones, and Leo Jones, the grandmother of Keisha Jones, and the aunt of the late Adeola Oshodi.

Just before Francine attended her son's 21st birthday, she fought with her ex-husband because he was bringing his girlfriend Annalise. Soon afterwards, she learned that Martha and the Royal Hope Hospital had been transported to the Moon. At the party, Annalise made a comment about Martha going into the moon, starting another fight. (DW: Smith and Jones)

She later phoned Martha to tell her that Tish had appeared on the news because she was an assistant to Richard Lazarus. That night, Francine met the Doctor. She later accused him of being a nasty man and slapped him because a man had whispered to her something bad about the Doctor. After the Doctor stopped Lazarus and left with Martha, Francine left a message for her, telling her that the doctor is bad news and is dangerous, as Harold Saxon had told her the news. (DW: The Lazarus Experiment)

Martha later phoned Francine, unaware that the phones were being bugged by Miss Dexter, a woman who worked for Harold Saxon. (DW: 42)

Francine was betrayed by Miss Dexter and was kidnapped along with the rest of her family to get Martha's attention. Francine, Clive and Tish were taken to the Valiant, where the Master released the Toclafane and sent them to decimate the Earth. (DW: The Sound of Drums)

Francine and her family were held on the Valiant as servants and hostages, while the Master continued to obssess over capturing and executing Martha. Francine swore to kill him, but was talked out of it, reminded that she was better than him and would not stop to killing. She was one of the only few who remembered the master and had knowledge of alien life. She was seen in the window of her home when Martha decided to leave the doctor. (DW: Last of the Time Lords) She will reappear in the Series 4 finale, (DW:The Stolen Earth)

Alternative Timeline

If Donna Noble had turned right to the wrong job interview then she would not have been able to save the Doctor, thus Francine would have lost her daughter Martha when she suffocated as the doctor could not save her. This would mean Francine would never have had met the doctor or been taken captive by the Master. But it is unknown if she was out of London when he Titanic hit. As she would have been in the normal Timeline but in this one on Christmas 2008 every one stayed in London. (DW: Turn Left)
