Ralph Adebayo was a crewmember on the Moonbase. He was a geologist and acted as a general handyman.

Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

Ralph was fetching supplies from the Moonbase's food store — or "shopping", as the crew thought of it (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Cybermen) — and noticed that some of the food sacks marked SUGAR had holes in them, causing him to exclaim "Anyone would think we had rats up here!" He then heard a tin can fall and saw the tall shadow of a strange figure.

When Ralph sent the newly arrived Ben to fetch items on the list, he was abducted and partially converted by the Telosian Cybermen and used by them to work the Gravitron controls. (TV: The Moonbase)
