Dick Turpin
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Dick Turpin was a notorious highwayman whose exploits were later romanticised in fiction.
Charley Pollard was a fan of the stories in which Turpin appeared. Upon encountering the real Turpin, Charley inadvertently infected him with Grel particles which altered Turpin and those around him to match their fictional depictions. (AUDIO: The Doomwood Curse)
Clyde Langer asked The Dark Rider if he had known Dick Turpin, but the Dark Rider gave no reply. (TV: Mona Lisa's Revenge)
