Shinx
The Shinx were a race of traders from the planet Shinnus. (AUDIO: Human Resources) The Sixth Doctor described them as "economically very successful, and generally a pretty low-key bunch of fellows." (AUDIO: The Condemned)
Characteristics[[edit] | [edit source]]
In their natural form their skin was red and jelly-like, lacking hair, and their build was dissimilar to that of a human. They didn't divorce. (AUDIO: The Condemned)
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
In the early 21st century, the Shinx were manipulated by the Time Lord Celestial Intervention Agency into hiring Hulbert Logistics and invading Lonsis, the newly adopted home planet of the Cybermen. This ended in 2006, when The Eighth Doctor interfered with one of Hulbert's combat machines, not knowing they were fighting the Cybermen. After the Cybermen occupied the combat machine, the Doctor eventually destroyed them with a quantum crystalliser, effectively ending the war. (AUDIO: Human Resources)
Several were on Earth disguised as humans in the 21st century.
On 28 February 2008, a the body of a Shinx under the assumed name of Gregory Bailey, disguised as a human, was found by the Sixth Doctor and Charlotte Pollard in Ackley House, in Manchester. (AUDIO: The Condemned)
