Sir Robert MacLeish inherited his home from his father, Sir George MacLeish. Sir Robert never understood the work that his father and Prince Albert, the Queen's consort, had undertaken in the Observatory of Torchwood House. When the Brethren came, he was unable to stop them taking the house over and setting a trap for the Queen. They held his wife, Lady Isobel, and the entire household captive, thus blackmailing him into assisting them.
After the Host escaped, Sir Robert realised that the only way to salvage his family name and reputation was to sacrifice himself to protect the Queen. So, he held the werewolf off for a few vital seconds outside the Observatory, allowing the Doctor time to find a way out, before he became its final victim. (DW: Tooth and Claw)
When Davros asked the Doctor "How many have died in your name?", Robert was one of those pictured. (DW: Journey's End)
