'''Harriet Jones''' was a British politician in the early 21st Century who served from 2006 till 2008 as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
'''Harriet Jones''' was a [[Great Britain|British]] politician in the early [[21st century]] who served as [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Prime Minister]] of the [[United Kingdom]].


Jones helped the [[Ninth Doctor]] fight the schemes of the [[alien]] family known as the [[Slitheen]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[Aliens of London]]''/''[[World War III]]'') Later, as [[Prime Minister]], she and the [[Tenth Doctor]] faced the [[Sycorax]].([[DW]]: ''[[The Christmas Invasion]]'')
== Biography ==
=== Early career ===
Born on [[3 June]], [[1949]]<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/s4/episodes/?episode_id=S4_12&action=photostory&itemnum=19 Doctor Who Episode Guide]: Harriet Jones. Now former, former Prime Minister. Image 19 of 19. Added on 26th June 2008</ref>{{facts}}, Harriet Jones was an unassuming career [[backbencher]] serving the [[constituency]] of [[Flydale North]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Aliens of London (TV story)}}) She was notable only for having voted against [[US]]-[[UK]] military action in the [[Middle East]] and her persistent efforts to have the British government adopt her [[Cottage Hospitals Iniative]] to improve the health service. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)}})
 
She was at [[10 Downing Street]] when an [[Slitheen craft (Aliens of London)|alien spacecraft]] [[London UFO crash|crashed in]] the [[River Thames]] on [[6 March]], [[2006]]. She was there to discuss plans for the [[Flydale Infirmary]], where her mother was staying, in her "tiny little" constituency. She soon discovered that the [[Cabinet of the United Kingdom]] had been infiltrated; the Acting [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom]], [[Jocrassa Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen|Joseph Green]], was actually one of the [[Slitheen family]] in disguise.
 
When the [[Ninth Doctor]] arrived at Downing Street to consult on the crash, she tried to warn his companion, [[Rose Tyler]], of what was happening, but the two were pursued by the unmasked aliens. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Aliens of London (TV story)}})
 
Eventually, she was trapped together with the Doctor and Rose in the [[Cabinet Room]] and aided the Doctor in determining the Slitheen's weaknesses. As the only elected representative present, Jones gave the Doctor the order to launch a [[Harpoon missile]] at Downing Street, killing the Slitheen before they could trigger off a [[nuclear war]].
 
Jones, the Doctor and Rose survived thanks to hiding inside a sturdy cupboard within the Cabinet Room. The Doctor told Rose that Jones was destined to be a Prime Minister, elected for three successive terms, and the architect of [[Britain]]'s Golden Age. ([[TV]]: {{cs|World War Three (TV story)}})
 
When she emerged from the ruins of 10 Downing Street, she provided broadcasters with an image that would be constantly replayed — the heroic survivor, striding towards the cameras with words of reassurance and pride. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)}})
 
In the [[morning]] following the Slitheen's attempted destruction of [[Earth]], [[Mickey Smith|Mickey]] wrote on [[Who is Doctor Who?|his website]] that "a woman no-one's ever heard of" was now running the [[country]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Hoax This! (short story)}})
 
In the immediate aftermath of the destruction of Number Ten, [[Major]] [[Jenny Maguire]] announced on an [[operations board]] on the [[UNIT website]] about the incident, mentioning that the "acting PM" was some woman she had never heard of, and that the PM wanted to talk to Maguire at the [[acting office]] in [[Westminster]] to ask what about what happened to [[Major]] [[Muriel Frost|Frost]]'s [[Muriel Frost's Geneva EVA team|team]] and the involvement of the Doctor; Maguire considered the PM to be gonig through that "[[star]]ry-[[eye]]d [[phase]]", though she would go to the officer after she saw the [[coffin]]s of the deceased off the [[air strip]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Number Ten (short story)}})
 
According to one account, Jones made a public tribute about the loss of the UNIT staff in the destruction of 10 Downing Street, and she blamed the attack on [[terrorist]]s, which was documented in a [[press statement]] filed by [[Corp]] [[C Powers]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Number Ten Pays Tribute to UNIT (short story)}}) However, according to a second account, the destruction of Downing Street was blamed on a [[gas]] [[explosion]]. As the clear up effort was under way, Jones called for an [[Official Enquiry]]. This news, along with pictures of her, the Doctor, and Rose exiting the rubble, was reported in a newspaper. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Secret Lives of Monsters (short story)}})
 
=== Prime Minister ===
After the incident, Harriet Jones was chosen to form a new government. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Aliens of London (TV story)}}) Her government won the election with a landslide majority. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) As incoming Prime Minister, Harriet ordered the rebuilding of both [[Big Ben]] and [[10 Downing Street]]. Unlike many former Prime Ministers, Harriet did not take residence in 10 Downing Street, as the rebuilding work was still ongoing at the time of her downfall. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)}})
 
[[Vivien Rook]] favourably called her "a modern [[Margaret Thatcher|Thatcher]]" in a post-election interview for the Sunday Mirror, referring to her landslide, political skills, and "ability to tap into the concerns of real people". While Jones admitted to certain common traits, she generally disliked the comparison and saw it as because they were both women. Jones stated her key policies included the cottage hospital reforms and national defence. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)}})
 
[[Mickey Smith]] wrote on [[www.whoisdoctorwho.co.uk|whoisdoctorwho.co.uk]] that he became suspicious of the [[Guinevere probe]] after looking at [[Guinevere website|the website]], finding that things didn't add up, as well as the involvement of Harriet Jones. He wrote about how he knew how she became the PM, having fought [[Slitheen family|Slitheen]] with [[Rose Tyler]], quipping that he [[bet]] she'd never mention that on ''[[Question Time]]''. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Mars (WiDW short story)}})
 
During Jones's tenure, she had an [[Economics|economic]] plan that would allow people to be [[£]][[18 (number)|18]] a week better off, according to [[Jackie Tyler]], and she presided over the launch of the ''[[Guinevere One]]'' [[space probe]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}})
 
=== Downfall ===
When the ''Guinevere One'' went missing, [[Major]] [[Richard Blake (The Christmas Invasion)|Richard Blake]] informed the PM, [[bet]]ting to other UNIT officers on an [[operations board]] on the [[UNIT website]] that she'd use it as an excuse to visit the [[Tower Ops]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Guinevere One (short story)}}) also known as the [[Tower of London]]. When she arrived at the Tower of London, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) Major Richard Blake told the other UNIT officers to be [[respect]]ful and [[support]]ive, but also to not let her think that she'd owned the place. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Guinevere One (short story)}})
 
It was the space programme that led to her facing [[Sycorax invasion of Earth|an alien invasion]] by the [[Sycorax]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) During the invasion attempt, Jones refused to bow to demands that the [[US President]] should take charge of the situation. Representing the Earth, she was taken aboard the Sycorax ship to act as her world's champion. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)}}) Although the invasion was averted by the [[Tenth Doctor]], Jones ordered the covert [[Torchwood Institute]] to [[Jathaa sunglider laser|shoot down]] the retreating Sycorax ship.
[[File:Don't you think she looks tired.jpg|left|thumb|The [[Tenth Doctor]] asks [[Alex Klein|Alex]], "Don't you [[Thought|think]] she looks tired?" ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}})]]
Furious with Jones, the Doctor told her he could bring her down with just six words. When she stood by her actions, he whispered those six words to her aide: "Don't you think she looks tired?" Soon she was fending off rumours of ill-health and facing a vote of no confidence, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) which she apparently lost.


Jones was a modest and intelligent middle-aged woman who had served her community faithfully for years without any real ambition beyond that. However, she was able to adapt quickly to the reality of the Slitheen threat, and took to the role of leadership easily, proceeding to reassure the public at the end that the crisis was over.
In the following [[March]], [[Harold Saxon]] grew in popularity in the wake of his unveiling of the [[Archangel Network]] at the start of the year. Before long, the "unpopular" Prime Minister, apparently ''still'' Harriet Jones, was forced to announce that the government's new [[defence minister]] would be Harry Saxon. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)}})


Jones always introduced herself by flashing her identity card and saying, "Harriet Jones, MP, [[Flydale North]]." She explained that this was because her constituency is a "tiny little place" and people would not know about it. Later, as Prime Minister, she continued to flash her card and say, "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister," to which people (including the Sycorax leader and a trio of Daleks) would invariably respond that they knew who she was. She later modified her introduction to say "Harriet Jones, Former Prime Minister".
[[Torchwood Institute]] leader [[Jack Harkness]] once rang the Prime Minister, angrily demanding to know why Torchwood files were being "given" to the [[Leader of the Opposition]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Greeks Bearing Gifts (TV story)}})


== Biography ==
[[Sarah Jane Smith]] once asked Harriet whether the Doctor "deposed" her, to which Harriet responded: "He did." She wondered for "a long time" if she was wrong about her actions, but years afterwards continued to stand by what she did. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}}) She would consider this similar to [[Winston Churchill]] being ousted after the war and wondered if he was "got at" too. Her [[political party|party]] didn't last long in government without her. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)}})
Harriet Jones was an unassuming career backbencher, serving the constituency of Flydale North, who happened to be at [[10 Downing Street]] when an [[alien]] [[spacecraft]] crash-landed in the [[River Thames]] in [[2006]]. She was there to discuss plans for the Flydale Infirmary in her "tiny little" constituency. She soon discovered that the Cabinet had been infiltrated, and that the Acting [[Prime Minister]], [[Joseph Green]], was actually one of the [[Slitheen]] family in disguise ([[DW]]: ''[[Aliens of London]]'').
 
=== Later life ===
Jones continued to work behind the scenes, devising ways to protect the Earth from alien intrusion should the Doctor be unavailable. With the help of the [[Mr Copper Foundation]], she developed the [[subwave network]], an intuitive system to seek out via computer anyone who had had extensive dealings with the Doctor. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}}) In public, she continued to serve as a backbencher. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)}})
 
After Christmas 2007, Jones wrote an op-ed in the [[Daily News]] in favour of [[Harold Saxon]]'s "courage and judgement" in handling [[The Runaway Bride (TV story)|an alien attack]]. However, she soon became dubious of him after he was elected. In another interview with Vivien Rook, to promote her campaign for cottage hospitals under threat, she said she'd done some digging and found too many questions about Saxon, asking Rook what was "behind him". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)}})
 
During the Dalek invasion, Jones used the subwave network to contact [[Sarah Jane Smith]], [[Martha Jones]] and the [[Torchwood Institute]] in an attempt to contact the Doctor. In doing so, she allowed the [[Dalek]]s to trace her signal and a squad of Daleks were dispatched to exterminate her. She remained defiant in her last moments, holding up her ID card and saying, "Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister." The Daleks said they knew who she was, but Jones said they knew nothing of her, telling them they would face their downfall in underestimating the [[human]] race. The Daleks then fired their [[Gunstick|weapons]] as her webcam feed died. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}})
[[File:Harriet Jones escape.jpg|right|thumb|Harriet Jones makes her escape. ([[POEM]]: {{cs|Harriet Jones, PM (poem)}})]]
Unknown to the other [[Children of Time]], she survived the Dalek attack on her house. Harriet fell through a trapdoor, landed on a mattress and sped away on a [[motorcycle]]. ([[POEM]]: {{cs|Harriet Jones, PM (poem)}})
 
=== Legacy ===
The Doctor later felt incredible remorse when he realised that, despite rejecting her, she seemingly gave her life to get him where he was supposed to be. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Journey's End (TV story)}})
 
The [[Twelfth Doctor]] mentioned Harriet as a possible candidate when asking [[the Landlord]] who the Prime Minister was. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Knock Knock (TV story)}})
 
== Alternate timelines ==
When [[Rose Tyler]] and her companion [[Clive Finch (The Endless Night)|Clive]] arrived in [[Parallel universe (The Flood)|another universe]], they found the Prime Minister was [[Margo Kinnear (The Flood)|Margo Kinnear]], while Harriet Jones was the [[Leader of the Opposition]], having lost an election. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Flood (RTDC audio story)}})


When [[Ninth Doctor|the Doctor]] arrived at Downing Street to consult on the crash, she tried to warn his companion [[Rose Tyler]] of what was happening, but the two were pursued by the unmasked aliens. Eventually she was trapped together with the Doctor and Rose in the Cabinet Rooms and aided the Doctor in determining the Slitheen's weaknesses. As the only elected representative present, Jones gave the Doctor the order to launch a [[Harpoon missile]] at Downing Street, killing the [[Slitheen]] before they could trigger off a [[nuclear war]]. Jones, the Doctor and Rose survived thanks to the reinforced steel walls of the cabinet rooms. The Doctor told Rose that Jones was destined to be a future Prime Minister, elected for three successive terms, and the architect of [[Britain]]'s Golden Age. ([[DW]]: ''[[World War Three]]'') The first of the Doctor's predictions came true some time after the Slitheen threat was ended, when she won election as prime minister. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Christmas Invasion]]'')
In another timeline, Harriet Jones had "three consecutive terms" as Prime Minister, as revealed by the Ninth Doctor. ([[TV]]: {{cs|World War Three (TV story)}})


During Jone's tenure, she presided over the launch of the ''[[Guinevere One]]'' [[space probe]] launched by the [[British Rocket Group]] and the extension of a Cottage Hospital scheme nationwide. It was the space programme that led to her being faced with an alien invasion by the [[Sycorax]]. Although the invasion was averted by [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]], Jones ordered the covert [[Torchwood Institute]] organisation to shoot down the retreating Sycorax ship. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Christmas Invasion]]'')
== Personality ==
Harriet Jones was a modest and intelligent middle-aged woman who had served her community faithfully for years without any real ambition beyond that. However, she was able to adapt quickly to the reality of the Slitheen threat. She took to the role of leadership easily, proceeding to reassure the public when the crisis was over. ([[TV]]: {{cs|World War Three (TV story)}}) The Tenth Doctor remarked how, during the destruction of Downing Street, Harriet Jones' first thought wasn't of the aliens or the war, but of her mother being on her own. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}})


Furious with Jones, the Doctor warned her he could bring her down with just six words, which he whispered to her aide: "Don't you think she looks tired?" Soon she was fending off rumours of ill-health and was facing a vote of no confidence ([[DW]]: ''[[The Christmas Invasion]]''). She was removed from office soon after, and resented the Doctor's role in her downfall, though she stuck to her beliefs that the earth needed defense from alien invasion ([[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]'').
In a crisis, Harriet was driven and willing to take charge. ([[TV]]: {{cs|World War Three (TV story)}}) She also remained cool when under pressure, even remaining calm when the [[Sycorax]] killed [[Daniel Llewellyn]] and [[Blake (The Christmas Invasion)|Major Blake]] right in front of her for next-to-no reason. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) However, she didn't take kindly to others making jokes at inappropriate times, and was less than impressed when Captain Jack Harkness started flirting with Sarah Jane Smith over the [[Sub-Wave Network]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}})


After leaving office, Jones continued to work behind the scenes in devising ways to protect the earth from alien intrusion, should the Doctor ever become unavailable. With the help of the Copper Foundation (possibly connected to "Mr. Copper", a man the [[Tenth Doctor|Doctor]] once met in space ([[DW]]: ''[[Voyage of the Damned]]''), she developed the Subwave Network, an intuitive system intended to seek out via computer anyone who has had extensive dealings with the Doctor.
After her encounter with the Slitheen, Harriet became Prime Minister and proved to be a capable leader devoted to the safety of not only her country but the entire world. However, she displayed a darker side by ordering Torchwood to destroy the Sycorax even though they were retreating from Earth. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) After that decision she wondered if she had made the right choice but eventually concluded it had been necessary to defend Earth. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}}) Harriet was brave and selfless when she tried to convince the Slitheen to kill her, not Rose Tyler. ([[TV]]: {{cs|World War Three (TV story)}}) At the end of her life, Harriet said her life didn't matter if her sacrifice would save the [[Earth]], and fearlessly faced the Daleks when they arrived to exterminate her, telling them that ultimately they will fail as they do not know what humans are truly capable of. Her sacrifice allowed the Doctor and his companions to save the whole of reality. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}})


Jones later used the Subwave Network to contact [[Sarah-Jane Smith]]; [[Captain Jack Harkness]] and Torchwood; and [[Martha Jones]]; an attempt to contact [[Donna Noble]] failed although her mother and grandfather, as well as [[Rose Tyler]], were able to view the communication. She got them to pool their resources ([[Mr Smith]]; The [[Cardiff Rift]] and Martha's Phone, respecitvely) to send a signal to call the Doctor. However in doing so she allowed the Dalek's to trace her signal and a squad of Daleks were sent to exterminate her. She remained defiant in her last moments, holding up her ID card saying "Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister". She said that the Daleks would face their downfall in underestimating the Human Race. The Daleks then apparantly had her exterminated. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]'')
Jones always introduced herself by flashing her [[ID card|identity card]] and saying, "Harriet Jones, [[Member of Parliament|MP]], [[Flydale North]]," because her constituency was a "tiny little place" and people would not know about it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Aliens of London (TV story)}}) Later, as Prime Minister, she continued to flash her card and say, "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister". ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}) She later modified her introduction to say, "Harriet Jones, Former Prime Minister", flashing her passport. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}})


[[Image:FormerPM.JPG|thumb|left|250px|Harriet Jones in her last moments]]
Harriet was very knowledgeable, though often displayed knowledge on areas she arguably shouldn't know about; she knew about Torchwood despite saying herself she knew she wasn't supposed to, and had at least some understanding of the [[Osterhagen Key]], a device even Jack Harkness knew nothing about, as she ordered [[Martha Jones]] not to use or talk about it the moment she mentioned it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}})


==Parallel Earths and Timelines==
== Appearance ==
In [[Pete's World]], that reality's version of Harriet Jones became [[President]] of Great Britain after the previous incumbent was killed by the [[Cybus Cyberman|Cybermen]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[Doomsday]]'', referencing the events of ''[[Rise of the Cybermen]]'')
[[File:Harriet Jones hairstyle World War Three.jpg|thumb|right|Harriet Jones's [[hairstyle]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|World War Three (TV story)}})]]
[[Major]] [[Jenny Maguire]] considered the "acting PM" to have the same [[hairstyle]] as [[Jenny Maguire's mother|her mother]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Number Ten (short story)}})


The fact the Doctor indicated that Jones was destined to serve three terms and usher in a new golden age would suggest that an alternate timeline exists in which she did just that; this alternate timeline was created when the Doctor chose to sabotage her career after the destruction of the Sycorax ship.
== Other references ==
Unbeknownst to herself, Harriet's televised appeal for the Doctor's assistance in the face of the [[Sycorax]] on [[25 December]] [[2006]] was intercepted by the [[Third Doctor]]'s [[TARDIS scanner]]. Upon seeing the broadcast, [[Jo Grant]] suggested that {{Delgado}}, who hypothetically travelled forward in time, had [[hypnosis|hypnotised]] Harriet to lure the Doctor into a trap. However, they were proved otherwise when they visited that time; though they did not meet the Prime Minister, they did learn that the Sycorax did invade but were destroyed while the Master was prevented from interfering by animate [[tinsel]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Christmas Inversion (short story)}})

== Behind the scenes ==
*[http://www.niftygirl.net/architect/ Harriet Jones fanlisting]
* Harriet's ousting from the role of Prime Minister was going to be directly referenced in {{cs|Last of the Time Lords (TV story)}}, with the Master making the point that the Doctor's actions had in fact aided in Harold Saxon's rise to power, but this was deemed as one reference point too many for the narrative of the episode.
* During the ''[[Doctor Who: Lockdown!]]'' re-watch of ''{{cs|The Stolen Earth (TV story)}}, [[Russell T Davies]] revealed that he was originally undecided as to who would be running the [[Sub-Wave Network]] and briefly considered several other characters including; [[Elton Pope]], [[Polly Wright]], [[Tegan Jovanka]], or even [[Donna Noble]] (returning for the first time since {{cs|The Runaway Bride (TV story)}} before it was decided that she would be the companion in [[Series 4 (Doctor Who 2005)|Series 4]]). Eventually, RTD decided to go with Harriet as a favour to producer [[Phil Collinson]] (as Harriet was his favourite character and he long wished for her to be redeemed after the end of {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}}). However, RTD failed to tell Collinson about Harriet's ultimate demise.
* In the book ''[[Now We Are Six Hundred (anthology)|Now We Are Six Hundred]]'' a poem shows an alternative fate for Harriet, with the character plunging through a trap door and onto a [[motorbike]] to avoid [[extermination]] by the [[Dalek]]s. Regarding the change RTD explained, "[Collison], who was the producer on ''[[Doctor Who (TV story)|Doctor Who]]'' when we killed Harriet Jones has nagged me about that ever since. So the first thing I did was send [the poem] to him". When asked "if it counted", he replied, "Absolutely. She's my character, that’s my episode, I say that's true."<ref>[http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2017-09-13/russell-t-davies-reveals-a-certain-doctor-who-character-isnt-dead-after-all/ Russell T Davies reveals a certain Doctor Who character isn't dead after all]</ref> On [[Twitter]], RTD later expanded his tale of Harriet's escape; "Harriet escaped! Her bike zoomed under the [[Dalek saucer]], into the helicarrier of Miss Fitzpatrick's Collection, a cabal of billionaires. And far away, [[the Trickster]] smiled as another piece in his long game fell into place...".
* Harriet refers to herself as not being "one of the babes", a reference to the recent-past term "[[Tony Blair|Blair]]'s babes"; referring to the large number of women MP's elected with [[Tony Blair]] in the 1997 general election.
* Harriet is the namesake of a track on the [[Doctor Who - Series 1 and 2 (soundtrack)|Doctor Who - Series 1 and 2]], "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister".
* Harriet has spawned a running gag; whenever she introduces herself, everyone (including the [[Dalek]]s and the [[Sycorax]]) would respond, "Yes, we know who you are".
** This was echoed in {{cs|The Zygon Invasion (TV story)}} when the [[Twelfth Doctor]] introduced himself as "the President of the World ... The Doctor" and [[Walsh (The Zygon Invasion)|Colonel Walsh]] answered "Yes, we know who you are." ([[TV]]: ''[[The Zygon Invasion (TV story)|The Zygon Invasion]]'')
* The website [[doctorwho.tv]] interestingly claimed that Harriet ''did'' serve three consecutive terms as Prime Minister before being removed.<ref>[https://www.doctorwho.tv/characters/harriet-jones Harriet Jones on doctorwho.tv]</ref>
* Harriet Jones's [[political party]] is left intentionally vague. In the real world, the [[Labour Party]] were in power at the time {{cs|Aliens of London (TV story)}} and {{cs|The Christmas Invasion (TV story)}} take place. In ''Aliens of London'', Harriet's attempts to speak to the Prime Minister and her referring to herself as "hardly one of the babes" implies that she may have been a Labour MP, although not one elected in the 1997 intake. Likewise, with the unnamed Prime Minister in {{cs|Aliens of London (TV story)}} heavily implied to have been [[Tony Blair]], Harriet Jones replacing him would indicate that she was a member of the governing party, rather than the opposition. In ''The Christmas Invasion'', Harriet states that she won a "landslide majority" at a general election, although it is unclear whether she came to office that way or if she called the election herself.
** The short story {{cs|Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)}} depicts the journalist [[Vivien Rook]] comparing Harriet to the [[Conservative Party|Conservative]] Prime Minister [[Margaret Thatcher]], although this is a comparison Harriet seemingly dislikes.

Harriet Jones
Appearances

Harriet Jones was a British politician in the early 21st century who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

Early career[[edit] | [edit source]]

Born on 3 June, 1949[1][additional sources needed], Harriet Jones was an unassuming career backbencher serving the constituency of Flydale North. (TV: Aliens of London [+]Loading...["Aliens of London (TV story)"]) She was notable only for having voted against US-UK military action in the Middle East and her persistent efforts to have the British government adopt her Cottage Hospitals Iniative to improve the health service. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"])

She was at 10 Downing Street when an alien spacecraft crashed in the River Thames on 6 March, 2006. She was there to discuss plans for the Flydale Infirmary, where her mother was staying, in her "tiny little" constituency. She soon discovered that the Cabinet of the United Kingdom had been infiltrated; the Acting Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Joseph Green, was actually one of the Slitheen family in disguise.

When the Ninth Doctor arrived at Downing Street to consult on the crash, she tried to warn his companion, Rose Tyler, of what was happening, but the two were pursued by the unmasked aliens. (TV: Aliens of London [+]Loading...["Aliens of London (TV story)"])

Eventually, she was trapped together with the Doctor and Rose in the Cabinet Room and aided the Doctor in determining the Slitheen's weaknesses. As the only elected representative present, Jones gave the Doctor the order to launch a Harpoon missile at Downing Street, killing the Slitheen before they could trigger off a nuclear war.

Jones, the Doctor and Rose survived thanks to hiding inside a sturdy cupboard within the Cabinet Room. The Doctor told Rose that Jones was destined to be a Prime Minister, elected for three successive terms, and the architect of Britain's Golden Age.

When she emerged from the ruins of 10 Downing Street, she provided broadcasters with an image that would be constantly replayed — the heroic survivor, striding towards the cameras with words of reassurance and pride. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"])

In the morning following the Slitheen's attempted destruction of Earth, Mickey wrote on his website that "a woman no-one's ever heard of" was now running the country. (PROSE: Hoax This! [+]Loading...["Hoax This! (short story)"])

In the immediate aftermath of the destruction of Number Ten, Major Jenny Maguire announced on an operations board on the UNIT website about the incident, mentioning that the "acting PM" was some woman she had never heard of, and that the PM wanted to talk to Maguire at the acting office in Westminster to ask what about what happened to Major Frost's team and the involvement of the Doctor; Maguire considered the PM to be gonig through that "starry-eyed phase", though she would go to the officer after she saw the coffins of the deceased off the air strip. (PROSE: Number Ten [+]Loading...["Number Ten (short story)"])

According to one account, Jones made a public tribute about the loss of the UNIT staff in the destruction of 10 Downing Street, and she blamed the attack on terrorists, which was documented in a press statement filed by Corp C Powers. (PROSE: Number Ten Pays Tribute to UNIT [+]Loading...["Number Ten Pays Tribute to UNIT (short story)"]) However, according to a second account, the destruction of Downing Street was blamed on a gas explosion. As the clear up effort was under way, Jones called for an Official Enquiry. This news, along with pictures of her, the Doctor, and Rose exiting the rubble, was reported in a newspaper. (PROSE: The Secret Lives of Monsters [+]Loading...["The Secret Lives of Monsters (short story)"])

Prime Minister[[edit] | [edit source]]

After the incident, Harriet Jones was chosen to form a new government. (TV: Aliens of London [+]Loading...["Aliens of London (TV story)"]) Her government won the election with a landslide majority. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) As incoming Prime Minister, Harriet ordered the rebuilding of both Big Ben and 10 Downing Street. Unlike many former Prime Ministers, Harriet did not take residence in 10 Downing Street, as the rebuilding work was still ongoing at the time of her downfall. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"])

Vivien Rook favourably called her "a modern Thatcher" in a post-election interview for the Sunday Mirror, referring to her landslide, political skills, and "ability to tap into the concerns of real people". While Jones admitted to certain common traits, she generally disliked the comparison and saw it as because they were both women. Jones stated her key policies included the cottage hospital reforms and national defence. (PROSE: Judge, Jury and Executioner [+]Loading...["Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)"])

Mickey Smith wrote on whoisdoctorwho.co.uk that he became suspicious of the Guinevere probe after looking at the website, finding that things didn't add up, as well as the involvement of Harriet Jones. He wrote about how he knew how she became the PM, having fought Slitheen with Rose Tyler, quipping that he bet she'd never mention that on Question Time. (PROSE: Mars [+]Loading...["Mars (WiDW short story)"])

During Jones's tenure, she had an economic plan that would allow people to be £18 a week better off, according to Jackie Tyler, and she presided over the launch of the Guinevere One space probe. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"])

Downfall[[edit] | [edit source]]

When the Guinevere One went missing, Major Richard Blake informed the PM, betting to other UNIT officers on an operations board on the UNIT website that she'd use it as an excuse to visit the Tower Ops, (PROSE: Guinevere One [+]Loading...["Guinevere One (short story)"]) also known as the Tower of London. When she arrived at the Tower of London, (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) Major Richard Blake told the other UNIT officers to be respectful and supportive, but also to not let her think that she'd owned the place. (PROSE: Guinevere One [+]Loading...["Guinevere One (short story)"])

It was the space programme that led to her facing an alien invasion by the Sycorax. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) During the invasion attempt, Jones refused to bow to demands that the US President should take charge of the situation. Representing the Earth, she was taken aboard the Sycorax ship to act as her world's champion. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"]) Although the invasion was averted by the Tenth Doctor, Jones ordered the covert Torchwood Institute to shoot down the retreating Sycorax ship.

The Tenth Doctor asks Alex, "Don't you think she looks tired?" (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"])

Furious with Jones, the Doctor told her he could bring her down with just six words. When she stood by her actions, he whispered those six words to her aide: "Don't you think she looks tired?" Soon she was fending off rumours of ill-health and facing a vote of no confidence, (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) which she apparently lost.

In the following March, Harold Saxon grew in popularity in the wake of his unveiling of the Archangel Network at the start of the year. Before long, the "unpopular" Prime Minister, apparently still Harriet Jones, was forced to announce that the government's new defence minister would be Harry Saxon. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"])

Torchwood Institute leader Jack Harkness once rang the Prime Minister, angrily demanding to know why Torchwood files were being "given" to the Leader of the Opposition. (TV: Greeks Bearing Gifts [+]Loading...["Greeks Bearing Gifts (TV story)"])

Sarah Jane Smith once asked Harriet whether the Doctor "deposed" her, to which Harriet responded: "He did." She wondered for "a long time" if she was wrong about her actions, but years afterwards continued to stand by what she did. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"]) She would consider this similar to Winston Churchill being ousted after the war and wondered if he was "got at" too. Her party didn't last long in government without her. (PROSE: Judge, Jury and Executioner [+]Loading...["Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)"])

Later life[[edit] | [edit source]]

Jones continued to work behind the scenes, devising ways to protect the Earth from alien intrusion should the Doctor be unavailable. With the help of the Mr Copper Foundation, she developed the subwave network, an intuitive system to seek out via computer anyone who had had extensive dealings with the Doctor. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"]) In public, she continued to serve as a backbencher. (PROSE: Judge, Jury and Executioner [+]Loading...["Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)"])

After Christmas 2007, Jones wrote an op-ed in the Daily News in favour of Harold Saxon's "courage and judgement" in handling an alien attack. However, she soon became dubious of him after he was elected. In another interview with Vivien Rook, to promote her campaign for cottage hospitals under threat, she said she'd done some digging and found too many questions about Saxon, asking Rook what was "behind him". (PROSE: Judge, Jury and Executioner [+]Loading...["Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)"])

During the Dalek invasion, Jones used the subwave network to contact Sarah Jane Smith, Martha Jones and the Torchwood Institute in an attempt to contact the Doctor. In doing so, she allowed the Daleks to trace her signal and a squad of Daleks were dispatched to exterminate her. She remained defiant in her last moments, holding up her ID card and saying, "Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister." The Daleks said they knew who she was, but Jones said they knew nothing of her, telling them they would face their downfall in underestimating the human race. The Daleks then fired their weapons as her webcam feed died. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"])

Harriet Jones makes her escape. (POEM: Harriet Jones, PM [+]Loading...["Harriet Jones, PM (poem)"])

Unknown to the other Children of Time, she survived the Dalek attack on her house. Harriet fell through a trapdoor, landed on a mattress and sped away on a motorcycle. (POEM: Harriet Jones, PM [+]Loading...["Harriet Jones, PM (poem)"])

Legacy[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor later felt incredible remorse when he realised that, despite rejecting her, she seemingly gave her life to get him where he was supposed to be. (TV: Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"])

The Twelfth Doctor mentioned Harriet as a possible candidate when asking the Landlord who the Prime Minister was. (TV: Knock Knock [+]Loading...["Knock Knock (TV story)"])

Alternate timelines[[edit] | [edit source]]

When Rose Tyler and her companion Clive arrived in another universe, they found the Prime Minister was Margo Kinnear, while Harriet Jones was the Leader of the Opposition, having lost an election. (AUDIO: The Flood [+]Loading...["The Flood (RTDC audio story)"])

In another timeline, Harriet Jones had "three consecutive terms" as Prime Minister, as revealed by the Ninth Doctor. (TV: World War Three [+]Loading...["World War Three (TV story)"])

Personality[[edit] | [edit source]]

Harriet Jones was a modest and intelligent middle-aged woman who had served her community faithfully for years without any real ambition beyond that. However, she was able to adapt quickly to the reality of the Slitheen threat. She took to the role of leadership easily, proceeding to reassure the public when the crisis was over. (TV: World War Three [+]Loading...["World War Three (TV story)"]) The Tenth Doctor remarked how, during the destruction of Downing Street, Harriet Jones' first thought wasn't of the aliens or the war, but of her mother being on her own. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"])

In a crisis, Harriet was driven and willing to take charge. (TV: World War Three [+]Loading...["World War Three (TV story)"]) She also remained cool when under pressure, even remaining calm when the Sycorax killed Daniel Llewellyn and Major Blake right in front of her for next-to-no reason. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) However, she didn't take kindly to others making jokes at inappropriate times, and was less than impressed when Captain Jack Harkness started flirting with Sarah Jane Smith over the Sub-Wave Network. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"])

After her encounter with the Slitheen, Harriet became Prime Minister and proved to be a capable leader devoted to the safety of not only her country but the entire world. However, she displayed a darker side by ordering Torchwood to destroy the Sycorax even though they were retreating from Earth. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) After that decision she wondered if she had made the right choice but eventually concluded it had been necessary to defend Earth. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"]) Harriet was brave and selfless when she tried to convince the Slitheen to kill her, not Rose Tyler. (TV: World War Three [+]Loading...["World War Three (TV story)"]) At the end of her life, Harriet said her life didn't matter if her sacrifice would save the Earth, and fearlessly faced the Daleks when they arrived to exterminate her, telling them that ultimately they will fail as they do not know what humans are truly capable of. Her sacrifice allowed the Doctor and his companions to save the whole of reality. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"])

Jones always introduced herself by flashing her identity card and saying, "Harriet Jones, MP, Flydale North," because her constituency was a "tiny little place" and people would not know about it. (TV: Aliens of London [+]Loading...["Aliens of London (TV story)"]) Later, as Prime Minister, she continued to flash her card and say, "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister". (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]) She later modified her introduction to say, "Harriet Jones, Former Prime Minister", flashing her passport. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"])

Harriet was very knowledgeable, though often displayed knowledge on areas she arguably shouldn't know about; she knew about Torchwood despite saying herself she knew she wasn't supposed to, and had at least some understanding of the Osterhagen Key, a device even Jack Harkness knew nothing about, as she ordered Martha Jones not to use or talk about it the moment she mentioned it. (TV: The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"], The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"])

Appearance[[edit] | [edit source]]

Harriet Jones's hairstyle. (TV: World War Three [+]Loading...["World War Three (TV story)"])

Major Jenny Maguire considered the "acting PM" to have the same hairstyle as her mother. (PROSE: Number Ten [+]Loading...["Number Ten (short story)"])

Other references[[edit] | [edit source]]

Unbeknownst to herself, Harriet's televised appeal for the Doctor's assistance in the face of the Sycorax on 25 December 2006 was intercepted by the Third Doctor's TARDIS scanner. Upon seeing the broadcast, Jo Grant suggested that the Master, who hypothetically travelled forward in time, had hypnotised Harriet to lure the Doctor into a trap. However, they were proved otherwise when they visited that time; though they did not meet the Prime Minister, they did learn that the Sycorax did invade but were destroyed while the Master was prevented from interfering by animate tinsel. (PROSE: The Christmas Inversion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Inversion (short story)"])

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • Harriet's ousting from the role of Prime Minister was going to be directly referenced in Last of the Time Lords [+]Loading...["Last of the Time Lords (TV story)"], with the Master making the point that the Doctor's actions had in fact aided in Harold Saxon's rise to power, but this was deemed as one reference point too many for the narrative of the episode.
  • During the Doctor Who: Lockdown! re-watch of The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"], Russell T Davies revealed that he was originally undecided as to who would be running the Sub-Wave Network and briefly considered several other characters including; Elton Pope, Polly Wright, Tegan Jovanka, or even Donna Noble (returning for the first time since The Runaway Bride [+]Loading...["The Runaway Bride (TV story)"] before it was decided that she would be the companion in Series 4). Eventually, RTD decided to go with Harriet as a favour to producer Phil Collinson (as Harriet was his favourite character and he long wished for her to be redeemed after the end of The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"]). However, RTD failed to tell Collinson about Harriet's ultimate demise.
  • In the book Now We Are Six Hundred a poem shows an alternative fate for Harriet, with the character plunging through a trap door and onto a motorbike to avoid extermination by the Daleks. Regarding the change RTD explained, "[Collison], who was the producer on Doctor Who when we killed Harriet Jones has nagged me about that ever since. So the first thing I did was send [the poem] to him". When asked "if it counted", he replied, "Absolutely. She's my character, that’s my episode, I say that's true."[2] On Twitter, RTD later expanded his tale of Harriet's escape; "Harriet escaped! Her bike zoomed under the Dalek saucer, into the helicarrier of Miss Fitzpatrick's Collection, a cabal of billionaires. And far away, the Trickster smiled as another piece in his long game fell into place...".
  • Harriet refers to herself as not being "one of the babes", a reference to the recent-past term "Blair's babes"; referring to the large number of women MP's elected with Tony Blair in the 1997 general election.
  • Harriet is the namesake of a track on the Doctor Who - Series 1 and 2, "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister".
  • Harriet has spawned a running gag; whenever she introduces herself, everyone (including the Daleks and the Sycorax) would respond, "Yes, we know who you are".
  • The website doctorwho.tv interestingly claimed that Harriet did serve three consecutive terms as Prime Minister before being removed.[3]
  • Harriet Jones's political party is left intentionally vague. In the real world, the Labour Party were in power at the time Aliens of London [+]Loading...["Aliens of London (TV story)"] and The Christmas Invasion [+]Loading...["The Christmas Invasion (TV story)"] take place. In Aliens of London, Harriet's attempts to speak to the Prime Minister and her referring to herself as "hardly one of the babes" implies that she may have been a Labour MP, although not one elected in the 1997 intake. Likewise, with the unnamed Prime Minister in Aliens of London [+]Loading...["Aliens of London (TV story)"] heavily implied to have been Tony Blair, Harriet Jones replacing him would indicate that she was a member of the governing party, rather than the opposition. In The Christmas Invasion, Harriet states that she won a "landslide majority" at a general election, although it is unclear whether she came to office that way or if she called the election herself.
    • The short story Judge, Jury and Executioner [+]Loading...["Judge, Jury and Executioner (short story)"] depicts the journalist Vivien Rook comparing Harriet to the Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, although this is a comparison Harriet seemingly dislikes. Her actions in The Christmas Invasion were interpreted by some viewers as a direct analogy of Margaret Thatcher, particularly her destruction of the Sycorax ship being an analogy of Thatcher's decision to sink the Argentine warship ARA General Belgrano.[4] Phil Collinson stated in the DVD commentary of The Christmas Invasion that Jones's downfall could be seen as a "hark to Thatcher", with one of Thatcher's aides reportedly having remarked that she looked tired during her final years in office.
