Controller (Bad Wolf): Difference between revisions

}}

Blind and connected to [[Satellite Five]] feeds at the age of five by dozens of cables, '''the Controller''' acted as the eyes and ears of the [[Dalek]]s. Aided by programmers, she constantly monitoring the transmissions that flowed through her. ([[DW]]: ''[[Bad Wolf (TV story)|Bad Wolf]]'') Essentially, she served a similar function to [[the Editor]] and the [[Jagrafess]] a century before, who also had occupied Floor 500 of the satellite, though the Controller had less say over her actions. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Long Game]]'')

Nevertheless, the Controller loathed and plotted against the Daleks, ensuring that the Doctor and his companions would appear in game shows on Satellite Five (now called the Game Station), which the Daleks ignored. She waited until a rare [[solar flare]]s would temporarily disrupt communications between the Dalek fleet and the Daleks could not monitor her thoughts, enabling her to warn the [[Ninth Doctor|the Doctor]] of the enemy "waiting in the dark" and pass on to him the co-ordinates of [[Rose Tyler]], which would enable him to rescue her, though she did not at that point reveal to the Doctor and his allies the identity of her "masters".
