'''Shockeye o' the Quawncing Grig''' was an [[Androgum]] [[cook]] aboard [[Space Station Camera]]. He had a yearning for [[human]] [[flesh]], and tried several times to kill and eat [[Jamie McCrimmon]] and [[Peri Brown]]. | |||
== Biography == | |||
Along with fellow Androgum, [[Chessene of the Franzine Grig]], and scientist [[Dastari]], Shockeye allied with a legion of [[Sontaran]]s, including [[Group Marshal]] [[Stike]] and [[Major]] [[Varl]], to kill all aboard the space station but them. They then travelled to [[20th century]] [[Spain]] and devised a plan to use the research from Camera to uncover the secret of [[time travel]]. | |||
When the [[Second Doctor]] was temporarily transformed into an Androgum, Shockeye killed a [[lorry]] driver to acquire his vehicle and brought the Doctor to [[Las Cadenas]], a [[restaurant]] managed by [[Oscar Botcherby]] and his girlfriend [[Anita (The Two Doctors)|Anita]] in [[Seville]]. After eating an enormous meal and running up a bill of 81,600 [[peseta]]s, Shockeye promised to pay with a twenty-[[narg]] note, but Oscar refused. Enraged, Shockeye stabbed him to death with a meat knife. | |||
Later, back at the house, Chessene allowed Shockeye to take the captured Jamie to the kitchens to be eaten. When the [[Sixth Doctor]] escaped the group's capture, Shockeye was commanded to postpone the killing and chase him down. The Doctor used some [[cyanide]] left by Oscar when he was hunting [[moth]]s to smother Shockeye and kill him. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Two Doctors (TV story)|The Two Doctors]]'') | |||
== Appearance == | |||
Shockeye had [[Ginger (trait)|ginger]] [[hair]] and wrinkly grey [[skin]] with [[wart]]-like growths, broad shoulders and thick legs. [[Jamie McCrimmon]] believed that he was one of the ugliest [[alien]]s he had encountered to that point. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Two Doctors (novelisation)}}) | |||
