David James "Dave" Oswald (TV: Death in Heaven) was the widower of Ellie Oswald and the father of Clara Oswald.

Biography

He first met Ellie in 1981, after a leaf hit his face and she saved him from being run over by a car. They fell in love, married, and had a baby called Clara. They lived together until Ellie's death on 5 March 2005. He comforted Clara at the funeral. (TV: The Rings of Akhaten)

Years later, he spoke to the Eleventh Doctor on the telephone while Clara was sleeping. He was very cross with the British government, something the Doctor wrote several pages of notes on. (TV: The Bells of Saint John)

Dave once attended Christmas dinner with his mother, Linda, and Clara. Although he had previously briefed Clara about how to cook the Christmas turkey by telephone and email, she still had difficulty doing so. He was somewhat unsettled when the Doctor, masquerading as Clara's boyfriend, arrived for dinner naked. (TV: The Time of the Doctor)

Personality

According to his daughter, his favourite James Bond movie was Live and Let Die. (COMIC: A Wing and a Prayer)
