'''Anne Hartman''' was the mother of [[Yvonne Hartman]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Rockery (audio story)|The Rockery]]'') and [[Yvonne Hartman's brother|her brother]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[One Rule (audio story)|One Rule]]'') | |||
== Biography == | |||
=== Early life === | |||
Anne served in the [[British Army]] until she was thirty and left "dripping in commendations". She married [[John Hartman]] and had two children; [[Yvonne Hartman's brother|a son]] and a daughter, [[Yvonne Hartman|Yvonne]]. As John worked in the army, the family moved around a lot. When John decided to work in [[security]] instead, Anne became the chief breadwinner, running acquisitions for the [[land registry]]. She was respected throughout the [[civil service]]. | |||
Although John wanted Yvonne to attend a [[boarding school]], Anne insisted that she attend the local [[comprehensive]] instead so as to allow her to mix with people of varying backgrounds. She made Yvonne a large amount of [[friendship bracelet]]s when she was thirteen until she learnt that she was selling them at school. She once read Yvonne's [[diary]]. | |||
Anne lived with John in [[Kent]], where they had a wild [[garden]] that John planned to sort out and maintain once he had [[retirement|retired]]. The two were aware of Yvonne's career at [[Torchwood One]] and knew about aliens and the like. In [[2003]], a month prior to his retirement, John suffered a [[heart attack]] at his [[desk]] and died. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Rockery (audio story)|The Rockery]]'') | |||
=== After John's death === | |||
Anne was unable to continue living in Kent and looking at the garden and so moved to [[Kensington]]. She received infrequent visits from Yvonne, sometimes at [[Christmas]], and continued to work. She suffered from [[depression]] which she tried to keep secret. She felt that Yvonne had ruined [[Yvonne Hartman's cousin|a cousin]]'s [[cremation]] by being picked up by a [[helicopter]] partway through. | |||
In [[2007]], Anne felt that her job at the land registry had become too much and she resigned. She moved to [[Shropshire]] with Yvonne's assistance. Yvonne gave her a [[haunt]] from the [[moon]] of [[Prattle]], telling her that it was her duty to help with such matters or otherwise lose her [[pension]]. Anne did not wish to care for the plant and enlisted her neighbour [[William (The Rockery)|William]] to care for it until Yvonne found out. During a depressive episode, she attempted to kill it with [[weed killer]]. | |||
Feeling bad, Anne began to care for the haunt properly, but helped Yvonne kill it after it began killing [[squirrel]]s and [[bird]]s because of her attempted killing of it some weeks prior. Yvonne told Anne that she knew of her battle with depression and she promised to visit her more often after the [[Ghost Shift]]s were concluded. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Rockery (audio story)|The Rockery]]'') | |||
=== After Yvonne's death === | |||
Yvonne died in the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]] not long after the haunt ordeal. ([[TV]]: ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'') Anne grieved for her but remained strong, receiving comfort from a regrown and peaceful haunt and from William, with whom she entered into a romantic relationship. | |||
On the one year anniversary of Yvonne's death, Anne mourned her but believed that she was in the [[Prettle]] paradise with John and that she would one day join her there. She chose not to let grief dictate her life and left the garden with William. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Rockery (audio story)|The Rockery]]'') | |||
== Personality == | |||
She did not like [[cat]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Rockery (audio story)|The Rockery]]'') | |||
