Biography

Lockwood was the head of a Containment Team sent to the highly classified UNIT storage and research establishment known as the Warehouse after Dr. Sally Arnold had exposed a dormant Nestene pod to deep-space transmissions, re-establishing contact with the Nestene Consciousness. With the building placed under quarantine and searched by UNIT operatives, including Daniel Matthews and James Ramsay, Sally helped the team find a hidden room containing more Nestene pods and also Doctor John Smith's UHF transmitter from Black Thursday. However, though the transmitter was useful in destroying the original pod, unsealing the doors allowed the reactivation of a second pod and also of the Autons still held in the Warehouse. The Autons captured Lockwood briefly, (HOMEVID: Auton) and managed to implant a "seed" in his mind with which they could maintain a psychic connection. (HOMEVID: Auton 3: Awakening) The second Nestene pod was able to escape through an air vent and evade capture for a further two years. (HOMEVID: Auton)

Lockwood, Matthews and Arnold continued to search for the missing alien, with Matthews eventually abandoning the search to go on a trip to Africa to dig up alien artefacts, before it was eventually tracked down to Sentinel Island, where it had re-energised and taken over the island community in an attempt to revive ancient Nestene creatures buried beneath the Earth's surface. Lockwood teamed once again with Ramsay and also with a UNIT psychic named Natasha Alexander. They halted the Auton plot but not before one of the ancient Nestene creatures was brought to life. The creature suddenly vanished, with Lockwood apparently having absorbed its energy. (HOMEVID: Auton 2: Sentinel)

In the aftermath of the confrontation on Sentinel Island, Lockwood was placed in Millhampton by Ross Palmer so UNIT could monitor connection to the Nestenes. Once the facility was taken by the Autons, Lockwood was used as a conduit to communicate with the Nestene Consciousness. Using a weapon provided by Ramsay, Lockwood ended his life so that his death would prevent the Autons' taking over. (HOMEVID: Auton 3: Awakening)
