Biography
Jenny Maguire had a mother. (PROSE: Number Ten) Maguire evidently knew Major Frost on a personal basis prior to 2006, being familiar with, at least, her famous fiery personality. (PROSE: Operation London, Number Ten) She also seemed to have met the Doctor previously, not thinking much of him. (PROSE: Operation London, Number Ten)
On 28 June 2006, (PROSE: Operation London) or as other accounts dated it, 6 March, (TV: Aliens of London, The Secret Lives of Monsters, et al.) or even sometime prior to 26 May, (PROSE: Number Ten Pays Tribute to UNIT) Major Jenny Maguire submitted an initial assessment of the crash of an alien craft into the River Thames on an operations board, mentioning the unhelpfulness of the government and how the craft was spotted on fifty-seven traffic cams. When a "space pig" was retrieved from the crashed ship, she told Corporal J Frinkstein to remain careful around it, despite its cute appearance, as it could've been hostile. She joked about releasing a squiddy thing from the stores onto the press.
Later that day, the government remained to be unhelpful, which Maguire believed was due to either them not wanting to contain the situation or simply not caring about it, though they did ask for a group of experts to be sent to No 10, including Frost and her team from Geneva. When "he" arrived, she thought he had some nerve, expressing a desire to slap him. (PROSE: Operation London)
After Asquith Slitheen and Jocrassa Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen killed all of the experts at Ten Downing Street via electrocution, directed from their ID card, barring the Ninth Doctor, (TV: Aliens of London) Major Maguire had to officially announce the deaths of the experts, including Frost and her Geneva EVA team, which saddened her. She had to speak to the UK-based families, and she stated that a proper statement and tribute would come soon. She was flummoxed at the destruction unleashed on that day, and Captain A. Frederick told her that the PM wanted to brief Major Maguire at the acting office in Westminster on the deaths of Frost and her team, and the involvement of the Doctor. She told Frederick that she would, after she finished seeing the coffins off the air strip. (PROSE: Number Ten)
After Sgt J Frinkstein shared details of an auction about something called "the Object", (PROSE: Object Auction) a Dalek otherwise known by the name "Metaltron", (TV: Dalek, PROSE: The Secret Lives of Monsters, Dalek) on an operations board, Major Maguire felt that it would be great for UNIT to acquire it, though this was unrealistic given its price, which kept raising whenever UNIT took interest, (PROSE: Object Auction) as UNIT had been tracking it for years. (PROSE: Object Auction, AUDIO: The Dalek Transaction) She expressed pity on it, given its past where it had been held in captivity and traded around for decades. (PROSE: Object Auction)
Maguire suggested that instead of changing the passwords to the UNIT website following Sgt Catherine Petts's report on Rose Tyler that revealed that Mickey Smith had been posting sensitive information about UNIT on whoisdoctorwho.co.uk, they should instead leave the passwords be and insert misinformation, Sgt A. Frederick denied the request, as she had not enough time to make fake conspiracy theories and fudged reports on aliens. (PROSE: Rose Tyler)
On Christmas Day 2006, the Sycorax attempted to invade Earth. Their leader killed Major Blake, among others, with his death whip on the Sycorax spaceship. (TV: The Christmas Invasion, PROSE: The Final Darkness, The Christmas Invasion) Maguire had to announce the death in action of Major Blake, contacting his family and she knew of a memorial service being arranged which the PM wanted to speak at. (PROSE: Project Rooftop)
Personality
Maguire seemed to be friendly towards her co-workers, (PROSE: Operation London, Number Ten, Project Rooftop) but she had animosity towards the Doctor. (PROSE: Operation London, Number Ten) She was empathatic, having feelings of pity towards "the Object". (PROSE: Object Auction)
