Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
It is fairly plausble, though by no means certain, that A.O. Osgood was originally intended to be Osgood, a UNIT soldier who appeared in The Dæmons [+]Loading...["The Dæmons (TV story)"], and whose first name was never mentioned on television. His first name was, however, given as "Tom" in 1996's The Eye of the Giant [+]Loading...["The Eye of the Giant (novel)"], a novel in the Virgin New Adventures line, and the debuts of Frank Osgood and Petronella Osgood would later show the Osgoods to be an "old UNIT family", raising the possibility of A.O. being a different character altogether. When asked, James Goss, the editor of the U.N.I.T. website, made no definitive statement, saying they were "probably" the same character.[1]
