Sally Salter was a friend of Mickey Smith. She worked with a couple of bands in the Powell Estate.

Biography

Around 2002, (PROSE: Meet Rose) Salter had a band, No Hot Ashes, (AUDIO: Ghosts) of which the "Fittest Boy" of the Powell Estate, Jimmy Stone, was a bass guitarist for. (PROSE: Meet Rose)

Born "Stephen", Sally was transgender and, by 2005, had not returned to her parents' house since transitioning, referring to it as "Stephen's house". She had no place of her own, keeping clothes and a toothbrush at five different flats across the Powell Estate, including Mickey Smith's one-bedroom. (PROSE: Rose)

Sally was in a band called Bad Wolf with her friends Mickey, Mook Jayasundera and Patrice Okereke. She was outside with Mook and Patrice when the Nestene invasion of Earth began and only narrowly survived after being cornered by several Autons. They were deactivated before delivering the killing blow. (PROSE: Rose)

Personality

Sally was sharp, cautious and cheerful. (PROSE: Rose)

Appearance

Sally had spiky hair and always wore a smile. (PROSE: Rose)

Behind the scenes

Sally was the first trans character in the DWU to be presented in a positive light, though she only had a relatively minor part in the 2018 Rose novelisation.

Around 7 months after Russell T Davies' novelisation was published, AUDIO: The Jabari Countdown by Big Finish Productions introduced the first trans character to play a major role in a DWU story, Eleanor Blake. Eleanor had a brief romance with Chris Cwej, and worked alongside the Seventh Doctor to save Earth.
