Miranda Gerhardt was the wife of Bruce, (PROSE: The Novel of the Film) the paramedic whose body was taken over by the Old Master.

On the night of 30 December 1999, Miranda was being kept awake by Bruce's snoring. The problem was solved when, unbeknownst to her, the Master's Deathworm killed him and took over his body. The next morning, she was killed by the Bruce Master when he broke her neck. (TV: Doctor Who, PROSE: The Novel of the Film)

Behind the scenes

  • Miranda was played by Eliza Roberts, the real-world wife of Eric Roberts, who played Bruce and the Master.
  • For the UK transmissions of Doctor Who, only the sound effect of Miranda's neck breaking was removed; the picture remained intact.
