Norah was a tourist who travelled to Cuba in 2009. She enjoyed roughing it on her travels.
She took a ferry to Shadow Cay, which was really a disguised Sycorax spaceship occupied by a group of widows of the 2006 Sycorax invasion which hypnotised humanity into believing the "island" had been discovered by Columbus. Norah and several other tourists were trapped inside the Church of the Sycorax. Norah and Donna Noble escaped capture, but followed the Sycorax to see where the humans were being taken. They saw the Sycorax play a video from the 2006 invasion ship's Foraxi Yox which showed the humans betrayed the men of their clan. The grieving widows prepared to spread the "widows' curse" using a captured aircraft boarded by zombies, or human abstracts, who carried a virus that would turn the Earth into "a world of never-ending suffering" by preventing death, leaving humanity in agony for centuries. Donna and Norah freed the prisoners, and Donna told them to head for the ferry. Donna and Norah boarded the plane and hijacked it from the abstract pilots as it took off for London. They flew the plane back to Shadow Cay and captured by the Tenth Doctor, who used the ship's magma-sculptor to catch Donna and Norah by replicating the hands of a "drowning giant" sculpture. The Doctor used the magma-sculptor to overload the ship, and before the ship exploded, the Doctor, Donna, Jean and Norah escaped the ship after the Doctor set its controls to take off.
