Glenda Jones was the mother of Ianto Jones and Rhiannon Davies. (AUDIO: Broken) She gave her son the number of the new mobile phone her husband bought in order to keep in touch with their son, while he was in hospital before dying. (AUDIO: The House of the Dead)
While working for Torchwood Three, Ianto spoke to his mother infrequently, but he did tell her about his suicide attempt. In 2007, Glenda called Ianto to ask him to come round for tea, and to tell him the doctor had found a lump. (AUDIO: Broken)
By the time of Ianto's death in 2009, Glenda had already passed.
Six months after Ianto's death, Mr Jones, brought back from the dead by Syriath along with his child, tried to persuade him to let the entity free by advancing the idea of seeing again his mother. (AUDIO: The House of the Dead)
Behind the scenes
