Biography
Shockeye's fellow Androgum, Chessene of the Franzine Grig had had her intelligence artificially increased by Dastari, the commander of Chimera. The trio called in a legion of Sontarans to kill all aboard but them. They traveled to Spain and devised a plan to use the research from Chimera to uncover the secret of time travel.
When the Second Doctor was temporarily transformed into an Androgum, Shockeye and he went to Las Cadenas, a restaurant managed by Oscar Botcherby. After eating an enormous meal and running up a large bill, Oscar refused Shockeye's twenty-narg note. Infuriated, Shockeye stabbed him in the chest with a meat knife, killing him.
Back at the house, the Sontarans captured both the second and the sixth incarnations of the Doctor, and chained them up with their companions. Chessene allowed Shockeye to take Jamie to be eaten. When the sixth incarnation escaped, Shockeye was ordered to postpone the killing and chase him down. The Doctor used some cyanide left by Oscar when he was hunting butterflies to smother Shockeye, easily and uncharacteristically murdering him. He never got to taste human flesh. (DW: The Two Doctors)
