| {{dab page|Susan}}'''Susan''' was the granddaughter of the [[human]] scientist [[Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|Dr. Who]], who invented the time and space machine [[TARDIS (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|''Tardis'']]. She lived with him and her elder sister [[Barbara (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|Barbara]] in a cottage in [[England]].

| == Biography ==
| |
| Susan shared her grandfather's genius and passion for science, and this contributed to her being a highly precocious child. She was extremely curious and fearless when it came to discovering new places.
| |
| | |
| Susan helped her grandfather construct ''Tardis, ''and understood the theories behind how it worked.
| |
| | |
| She accompanied Dr. Who on his first trip to the [[planet]] [[Skaro]] in ''Tardis'', as did Barbara and her boyfriend [[Ian Chesterton (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|Ian Chesterton]]. During her travels, she met the [[Dalek]]s and then an ancient [[Rome|Roman]] legion in [[64]] AD. ([[NOTVALID]]: ''[[Dr. Who and the Daleks]]'', ''[[Dr Who and the House on Oldark Moor (short story)|Dr Who and the House on Oldark Moor]]'')
| |
| | |
| They subsequently travelled to [[Oldark Moor]] and met Count [[Tarkin (Dr Who and the House on Oldark Moor)|Tarkin]]. ([[NOTVALID]]: ''[[Dr Who and the House on Oldark Moor (short story)|Dr Who and the House on Oldark Moor]]'')

| |
| After Ian and Barbara had seemingly left ''Tardis'', she and her grandfather travelled to [[Mars]] with his niece [[Louise (Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.)|Louise]], where they once again encountered the Daleks as well as the telepathic native [[Martian (Daleks Versus the Martians)|Martians]]. After Louise was captured by the Daleks, Dr. Who learned that the [[Martian Sphinx]] was in fact an ancient weapon whose secret had been forgotten. He was able to reactivate the Sphinx and used it to destroy the invading Dalek forces, only moments after he had rescued Louise from the [[Dalek flying saucer]]. ([[NOTVALID]]: ''[[Daleks Versus the Martians (comic story)|Daleks Versus the Martians]]'')
| |
| | |
| Dr. Who, Susan, Louise and a police constable named [[Tom Campbell]] later travelled to [[London]] in [[22nd century|2150]] AD and found that it had been devastated by a Dalek invasion years earlier. Once there, she assisted in freeing Earth from Dalek occupation. ([[NOTVALID]]: ''[[Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.]]'')

| According to one account, Dr. Who and Susan eventually realised that they were only fictional characters within the works of [[the Scriptwriter]]. Partway through the script of what would have been a third movie with the characters, in which Dr. Who had greatly aged and was now nearly senile (though still inventive and self-reliant, notably creating himself a [[turbo-charged walking frame]]), Susan decided that she had had enough of the Scriptwriter putting them through one ridiculous situation after another — especially as, being a child actor, Susan would only get the pay on her 21st birthday. Pulling out a hammer and a wooden stake, props saved from [[Peter Cushing|her Grandfather]]'s [[Van Helsing|last acting job]], Susan somehow reached beyond her fictionality and staked the Scriptwriter through the heart, putting an end to the Dr. Who movies once and for all. Upon reading through the unfinished script, [[Peter Cushing]] tried to "burn, drown and throttle it" but was unable to destroy it, merely losing it; it was later found and the truth discovered.

| * Susan was based on [[the Doctor]]'s granddaughter [[Susan Foreman]], who was an older and almost entirely different character. While a few reference works indicate that Susan's full name is Susan Who, this is not supported by any on-screen evidence. On-screen, her grandfather was literally called [[Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|Dr. Who]], so if Susan's last name truly is "Who", this would imply that Dr. Who is her paternal grandfather.
