James Stevens (born 23rd November, 1945) authored Who Killed Kennedy, a book chronicling his attempts to learn more of the secretive organisation known as UNIT.
Biography
An investigate journalist with the Daily Chronicle, Stevens discovered, and found himself obsessed by, UNIT, "Dr. John Smith" and a history of alien intervention in Human affairs dating back at least to the Shoreditch Incident. He met Dodo Chaplet, a mentally broken one-time companion of the Doctor in first incarnation as an informant. However, he developed a romantic relationship until, forces determined to silence her, murdered her. At her funeral, Stevens briefly met the Doctor himself.
Having travelled to Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963 to witness the Kennedy assassination, Stevens had seen his own older self shoot Kennedy. He remained haunted by the knowledge, that, to ensure that history kept to its proper course, Stevens knew that he must eventually return to that time and place to kill Kennedy. (MA: Who Killed Kennedy)
Before leaving the present to commit the assassination of Kennedy, Stevens would mentor Ruby Duvall, a young aspiring journalist. (NA: Happy Endings)
Stevens disappeared sometime in 1995, presumably having time travelled into the past. (WEB: whoisdoctorwho.co.uk)
Behind the scenes
- Who Killed Kennedy came out with the fictional James Stevens listed as its co-author, with its real author, David Bishop. Stevens supposedly appears in the form of one of the unnamed journalists who appear in Spearhead from Space and The Mind of Evil and played by various extras. Although pseudonyms have been used on many occasions, and short stories and other minor fiction have been released credited to characters within the series, this is the only occasion to date in which a full-length novel has been credited to a character.
