Biography

Born circa 1895, (PROSE: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) the Doña Arana was married to Don Vincente Arana and lived with him and their staff, including Anita's mother, (TV: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) on a thriving olive plantation in Andalusia. They had three children who all died of smallpox, after which she had a shrine built.

The Doña Arana's husband died circa the 1960s and she subsequently dismissed all of her servants and estate workers (PROSE: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) to live a reclusive life on the hacienda, occupying herself with her religion. (TV: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) What few things she needed were supplied by Father Ignatius, the only person who ever visited her.

One May, (PROSE: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) the Doña Arana was killed by Shockeye o' the Quawncing Grig so that he, Chessene o' the Franzine Grig, Joinson Dastari, Stike and Varl could use the hacienda as their base. Chessene read her mind after her death and found that it was full of her religion. (TV: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) Shockeye incinerated the body.

Legacy

The Doña Arana's disappearance was reported to the police by Father Ignatius several weeks later when he made his next visit, which had been delayed by a stroke. The mystery of what happened to her and her home was never solved by the authorities and the file was put next to the unsolved murder of Oscar Botcherby.
