'''Vanessa''', previously known as "Vincent", was a [[friend]] of [[Jack Harkness]]. According to Jack, Vanessa was once a "regular guy", who had a [[Vanessa's girlfriend|girlfriend]] and liked [[sport]] and [[beer]]. Jack told [[Toshiko Sato|Toshiko]] that his friend disappeared for a couple of [[month]]s after seeming "distracted", and upon return asked to be called Vanessa. "Since then, [Jack had] always been a little nervous when a friend behave[d] out of character." ([[TV]]: ''[[Greeks Bearing Gifts (TV story)|Greeks Bearing Gifts]]'') | |||
