Gita (Journey's End)
It should be relocated at Gita Kapoor because the two share the same actor + character name, and there's seemingly no conflicting information necessitating treating them as separate people.

Gita (PROSE: Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia [+]Loading...{"ed":"2011 edition","1":"Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia (reference book)"}) was a human who was captured by the Daleks during the Dalek invasion of Earth in the 2000s,[1] and was one of the test subjects for the Reality Bomb.
Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
After being captured on Earth, Gita was transported to the Dalek Crucible for testing of the Reality Bomb, a narrow test focused on disintegrating organic matter only.
Terrified, she found herself standing next to Jackie Tyler as the countdown to the Daleks' test began. Profusely apologising to her in whispers, Jackie teleported out of the testing area, leaving Gita and the other prisoners to their fate. She was thus vaporised to nothingness by the test a matter of seconds later, alongside the other prisoners. (TV: Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"])
Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Although evidently not the only "scared woman" in the story, Shobu Kapoor's character was specifically named as "Scared woman" in the end credits of Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"]. In Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia [+]Loading...{"ed":"2011 edition","1":"Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia (reference book)"}, her name is given as Gita.
Incidentally, Gita is also the name of the EastEnders character Gita Kapoor, also portrayed by Shobu Kapoor. The character appeared in the programme's crossover with Doctor Who, Dimensions in Time [+]Loading...["Dimensions in Time (TV story)"].
