Mary Elson was the niece of Reverend Matthew Townsend. Her parents died in a car crash. In 1951, she accompanied her uncle to the Cardington airbase, where he became involved, where he became involved with Dionysus Project. However, he was so zealous that he overloaded the machine, tore a rip in the fabric of reality and saw the Divergence. This resulted in the death of everyone on the base including Mary.

While dealing with the aftermath of the explosion of Anti-Time, the TARDIS created a series of holographic projections, taken partly from reality and partly from the memories of the Eighth Doctor, Charley Pollard and the TARDIS itself. One such projection was the event at Cardington, looking for information on the Divergence. Inside this projection, it placed Charley in the role of a ministry driver and itself in the role the Minister for Defence. The projection of Mary was created using the image of the Fifth Doctor's former companion Erimem whereas Townsend's image was based on that of the Fifth Doctor himself. (BFA: Zagreus)
