Cleo Proctor was one of the hosts of The Blue Box Files, alongside her friends Abby McPhail and Shawna Thompson. By 2022, she was 26 years old.

Biography

Cleo was born in 1995 or 1996 under the deadname of Jayden. (AUDIO: Lost) She had a strained relationship with her mother growing up, which was worsened when her father disappeared in 2002[1]. She believed that his absence enabled her mother to banish her from their house when she started her transition, forcing her to live with her brother Jordan.

Cleo met Abby McPhail and Shawna Thompson during the three months when Cleo attended university and they bonded over their mutual love of murder podcasts and hatred of their "alt-right neckbeard neighbour". (AUDIO: SOS)

Cleo lived in London with Jordan in his flat by 2022 and worked as an usher at the Queen Vic Theatre. (AUDIO: Hysteria) At the same time, she became one of the hosts of The Blue Box Files alongside Abby and Shawna, although she considered herself "on the fence" about its validity. Among the people she interviewed for The Blue Box Files were someone concerning a yeti and Penny Carter, at which point she began to discover the Doctor and their friends being redacted from history. Later, when going to work, she received a call from Rani Chandra telling her to stay alert over meeting the Doctor and to contact her urgently. (AUDIO: SOS)

Although highly dubious, she eventually agreed to meet Rani at the Hotel Onyx with Jordan. Upon entering Suite 13, however, they were met by a hologram of Rani who claimed that Cleo was one of the Doctor's friends' last hopes of keeping them safe. They were eventually interrupted by a hologram of a giant robot that tried to home in on Cleo's location and kill her. (AUDIO: Hysteria)

Personality

Cleo resented her mother for chucking her out when she started to transition, and claimed that if her dad had not left by then, he would have stuck up for her. Although Jordan tried to reconnect them, Cleo was unwilling to meet with her mother again, even ten years later, as she claimed "time [wasn't] a healer". (AUDIO: SOS)

Cleo considered Jordan to be a "mummy's boy", (AUDIO: SOS) while he said she was "the ultimate daddy's girl". (AUDIO: Hysteria)
