Biography
In the early 1950s, Torchwood sent Lizbeth Hayhoe to visit the German equivalent to Torchwood, Project Hermod, to gain intelligence on its latest weapons. There, she discovered that Project Hermod had infected living children with alien funghi. Disgusted by what she found, Hayhoe burnt the place to the ground. This caused Reginald Rigsby, leader of Torchwood One, to demote her to Room 13. She met Norton Folgate for the first time while preparing the Skylon for the Festival of Britain. (AUDIO: Parasite)
In June 1953, Hayhoe lead a mission to round up and store those whose faces had been stolen by the Wire, an alien parasite that had attempted to invade Earth in the leadup to the coronation of Elizabeth II. (AUDIO: Parasite, TV: The Idiot's Lantern)
Shortly after, Hayhoe was joined in Room 13 by Norton Folgate, who had been stationed there after his failed attempt at a takeover of Torchwood. (AUDIO: Goodbye Piccadilly) Together, Hayhoe and Folgate were victims of memory manipulation at the hands of Adam. Adam used his powers to manipulate the memories of the Torchwood employees, temporarily depose Rigsby, and attempt an instellar war with the Kernaz. On the day of war, Hayhoe and Folgate were able to depose Adam and hand him over to the Kernaz, who banished him to the Void for the destruction of their homeworld. (AUDIO: Madam, I'm)
In the mid-1950s, Project Hermod used gangsters to smuggle packages into Torchwood itself containing the alien funghi previously thought destroyed by Hayhoe herself. This funghi quickly spread through the smog of Soho, controlling the minds of taxi drivers and policemen, in effect paralysing London from invading attacks. When the funghi took control of Torchwood, the remaining staff, including Hayhoe, closed themselves away. However, this was ineffective and both Hayhoe and Rigsby perished. After her death, Norton Folgate, Andy Davidson and new recruit Gideon Lyme defeated the funghi and started to rebuild Torchwood. (AUDIO: Parasite)
