A sandbox to test leads written from an out of universe perspective.
Introduced in a supporting role in the 1990 Doctor Who Magazine comic story The Mark of Mandragora by Dan Slott, Muriel Frost is a recurring character within the Wilderness Era of Doctor Who stories featuring UNIT United Kingdom. Presented as a no-nonsense and fiery tempered Captain for UNIT, Muriel Frost continued to have appearances in many stories, from the 1991 comic story Evening's Empire by Andrew Cartmel, which explored Muriel's personal life and the abuse she faced from her boyfriend, to the 2000 Big Finish Main Range audio drama The Fires of Vulcan, of which she had a minor role and was portrayed by Karen Henson.
Muriel Frost cameoed, albeit not named, in the 2005 Doctor Who television story Aliens of London, where she was unceremoniously murdered by the Slitheen family along with other alien experts in 10 Downing Street; her appearance in this story was made overt in two short stories — Operation London and Number Ten — on the website U.N.I.T. created to tie-in with Aliens of London and World War Three. Indeed, it had even been originally intended that the Ninth Doctor would directly address Muriel Frost before her death, but this line of dialogue was cut.
Muriel Frost worked for UNIT over a twenty-year period, from the 1980s to the 2000s. By the 2000s, she appeared to be also working for the US Army. Over the course of her career, she was a Captain, a Colonel, and by the end of her life, she was either a Major or a General.
On a number of occasions, she worked with the Doctor's seventh incarnation. In 2006, Frost was killed by the Slitheen family, with her loss being felt by UNIT, especially by those who had become close to her.
