Biography
In the 1980s, Odessa met Jackie Tyler, Sarah, Suzie and Bev and, every Wednesday night, they all went out for wine and chips and named themselves the "Wednesday Girls". At some point she met and married Jackson Smith. (PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"])
In 1983, (PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"]) on 22 May 1984, (PROSE: "Mickey Data" [+]Part of Mickey, Loading...{"name":"\"data\"","page":"6","namedpart":"Mickey Data","1":"Mickey (reference book)"}) or in circa 1985, (PROSE: The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre [+]Loading...["The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)"]) she gave birth to Mickey Smith. (PROSE: "Mickey Data" [+]Part of Mickey, Loading...{"name":"\"data\"","page":"6","namedpart":"Mickey Data","1":"Mickey (reference book)"}, etc.) Jackie would later recall that Odessa had tightly held her hand throughout childbirth. (AUDIO: The Last Party on Earth [+]Loading...["The Last Party on Earth (audio story)"]) Odessa took Mickey to see Jackie's newborn baby, Rose Tyler, on the day that she was born circa 1986. (PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"])
On 7 November 1987, Pauline was killed by the Reapers after they entered the world following an adult Rose Tyler's attempt to save the life of her father, Pete. She was seemingly restored to life after Pete sacrificed himself to heal the wound in time. (TV: Father's Day [+]Loading...["Father's Day (TV story)"], PROSE: Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia [+]Loading...{"name":"\"encyclopedia\"","page":"322","ed":"2011 reprint","1":"Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia (reference book)"})
As her relationship with Jackson deteriorated, Odessa relied on the "Wednesday Girls" to cheer her up for the one night of laughter of the week; other nights were darker. Jackie would later say that Odessa "could never really cope with money, with men, or anything really" (PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"]) and Rose said that she "just couldn't cope". After Jackson "wandered off", (TV: Rise of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Rise of the Cybermen (TV story)"], PROSE: Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia [+]Loading...{"name":"\"encyclopedia\"","page":"322","ed":"2011 reprint","1":"Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia (reference book)"}) marrying Josette and moving to Spain, (AUDIO: The Last Party on Earth [+]Loading...["The Last Party on Earth (audio story)"], PROSE: Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia [+]Loading...{"name":"\"encyclopedia\"","page":"322","ed":"2011 reprint","1":"Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia (reference book)"}) Mickey was raised by her mother, Rita-Anne. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Rise of the Cybermen (TV story)"], PROSE: Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia [+]Loading...{"name":"\"encyclopedia\"","page":"322","ed":"2011 reprint","1":"Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia (reference book)"})
According to one account, around 1989 when Mickey was five, Odessa quietly went to her bedroom and committed suicide. (PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"]) According other accounts, she was still alive in 2005 and Rose told the Ninth Doctor that she would have to call her after believing that Mickey was dead.
