Naming Problems

If this caption is to be trusted, this reporter's name is "Mal Loup".

This reporter's name is the subject of some ambiguity. Her name has only been seen in a chyron once. In one account of the Slitheen infiltration of the British government by the Slitheen in World War III, her name was seen as "Mal Loup", a vague French translation for "Bad Wolf". This in-universe citation, however, was only seen on an official, but in-universe, BBC website, not in the episode as broadcast. Likewise, the name "Trinity Wells" comes only from the credits of her appearances in Turn Left onwards, not the episodes themselves. It's possible the appearance of the Mal Loup name in this instance was a manifestation of the Bad Wolf meme. (DW: The Parting of the Ways)
