Lucy Sobel
Lucy was a co-worker of Rhys Williams at Harwood's Haulage.
She originally moved to Cardiff from Bristol. She first met Gwen at a barbecue in Ely where Rhys and a group of other guys were busking some Kaiser Chiefs music on a bass guitar. Gwen remembered that Lucy had been at least a size 16 at the time.
Desperate to lose weight, Lucy went to a clinic after seeing a flyer at a club. They gave her a consultation and some herbal pills. In her own words: "the weight just melted away".
Rhys bumped into Lucy outside the Indian Summer on the way to a date at the restaurant with Gwen. He asked Gwen if it was alright if she ate with them. Gwen received a text from Torchwood and left without them knowing.
Gwen Cooper was convinced Lucy had feelings for Rhys. After this, Lucy unexpectedly got caught up in one of Torchwood's investigations. (PROSE: Slow Decay)
