Arthur Terrall was Ruth Maxtible's fiancé in 1866.
Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
Terrall had fought in the Crimean War. He was wounded during the Battle of Inkerman.
When the Daleks invaded Theodore Maxtible's house, he was placed under the control of the Daleks and exhibited erratic behaviour due to the Daleks' control.
Terrall hired Toby to kidnap Jamie McCrimmon, but when Toby tried to get his pay, Terrall didn't remember hiring him. He later fought with Toby when Toby threatened to take the information he knew to someone who would pay for it. Toby knocked Terrall unconscious.
When Theodore Maxtible and Edward Waterfield found Toby's dead body, Terrall happened on the scene in time to prevent Maxtible from killing Waterfield and disposed of the body.
Terrall angrily interrogated the maid Mollie Dawson when she said she had heard Victoria Waterfield's voice. The Second Doctor suspected something was odd about Terrall because he never ate or drank anything in front of other people. Terrall later got into a sword fight with Jamie, but collapsed when the Daleks released their control of him. The Doctor then told Ruth to take him and Mollie as far away as possible.

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The Dalek Handbook observes that Terrall was controlled by a more advanced version of the conditioning process used on the Robomen.
