A clone of Martha Jones was one of many clones created by the Sontarans' cloning pool to aid them in their invasion of Earth.

Biography

Martha's clone originated in the cloning pool located in the ATMOS Factory. The clone acted as the Doctor's assistant and link with UNIT. The real Martha lay in a trance state linked to technology which transferred her memories to the clone, cloned UNIT troopers having lured her into the room at the factory. "Martha" stopped UNIT's missiles from destroying the Sontaran Flagship in Earth orbit.

The Doctor had noticed many differences between the clone and the original (for one thing, according to him, she "smelled funny"), though he did not inform the copy that he had guessed until she turned a gun on him. When the Doctor disconnected the real Martha from the Sontaran technology, she began to die. (DW: The Sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky)
