Henry John Parker was an millionaire entrepreneur living near Cardiff. He was a collector of alien artefacts, and thus monitored by Torchwood 3, which classified him as "mostly harmless".
He had a full life, travelling the world, fighting in the war, and eventualy starting his own business and making a fortune.
After his wife died, he stopped leaving his home. As a result, no one had seen him since 1986. He continued to collect artifacts though, and hired security personal to make his house well-guarded.
By 2008 he was dying from a failing heart. He had had three heart attacks, and a failed bypass. By this time he was eighty-odd years old. Terrified to die, he activated the Pulse, an artifact, taking it into his bed believing it to be a healing device.
