- For other individuals named Christopher and Marlowe, see separate entry.
Christopher "Kit" Marlowe was the greatest Elizabethan tragedian writer before William Shakespeare.
Profile
The Doctor made passing reference to Rose Tyler that Marlowe was gay or bisexual, and that the Doctor would be willing to make a pass at him if the situation called for it. (DWM: A Groatsworth of Wit) Marlowe, in fact, flirted extensively with the Doctor's companion Steven Taylor. (MA: The Empire of Glass)
Though history would recorded that Marlowe died in 1593, this was a fallacy. In fact, Marlowe had traveled to the colony of Roanoke in the future United States to spy on Sir Walter Raleigh. While there, he and the rest of the colony were abducted by the Greld, who would use them in their plan to sabotage the Armageddon Convention. He actually died in 1609 as a result of a duel. (MA: The Empire of Glass)
