Lisa Hallett worked at Torchwood Tower in London during the time of the Battle of Canary Wharf. Along with many others of the Torchwood personnel she was partially upgraded into a Cyberman. Not a victim of the full cyber-conversion process, she had Cyber-technology added on to her Human body. After the battle, her boyfriend, Ianto Jones, also in the employ of the Torchwood Institute, transported her to Torchwood 3 in Cardiff.

Dr. Tanizaki was brought in by Ianto to attempt to help remove the Cyber-implants, he was killed by Hallett either because of her Cyber-programming or through some twisted desire to thank him. She transplanted her brain into a Jubilee Pizza delivery girl in an attempt to be together with Ianto. She was killed by the Torchwood 3 personnel after she attempted to take over Torchwood 3. (TW: Cyberwoman)

Lisa reappeared as a 'spirit' which urged Ianto to open the Cardiff Rift. (TW: End of Days)

Lisa is also mentioned in a flashback to the past in a different episode from Series Two. Here, Jack Harkness mentions that Lisa is Ianto's girlfriend, which he found out after doing a data check on him. (TW: Fragments)

In Torchwood Magazine, it is read in an interview with Gareth David-Lloyd that Lisa is the reason why Ianto Jones wears suits rather than casual clothes as he once did the first time he met Jack. David-Lloyd states that Ianto wears his suits as a way of masking his true personalities, and his intentions to find a cure for Lisa. However, once the death of Lisa comes about, David-Lloyd explains that Ianto becomes much more comfortable in both his suits, and in his team. (TWM)
