Rita was an English medical student who was abducted as her shift was starting and brought abroad the Prison Ship. She was astute, quickly diagnosing a situation based on her observations. The Doctor immediately took a liking to her.
Biography
Rita was a devout Muslim. Though she accepted the Doctor's claims that the "hotel" did not exist on Earth, Rita thought it was actually Jahannam (the Muslim equivalent of the Christian Hell). She was observant and told the Doctor he had a "god complex". Her admirable qualities led the Doctor to jokingly fire Amy and offer Rita her place in the TARDIS.
Rita had already become the the third human the Doctor encountered to be possessed by the Minotaur. Her fear was revealed to be her father, a medical doctor whose constant berating her over her grades made her feel deep shame.
Subsequently, Rita hid her devotions to the Minotaur from the Doctor and the others. She separated herself from them. She asked the Doctor to turn off the camera before she died, to remember her as she was, before her faith was stolen from her. The Doctor shut of the camera so they could not witness her death. (DW: The God Complex)
