A diary written by Fenn-Cooper was read by the [[Seventh Doctor]] in the [[Library of St John the Beheaded]]. [[John Watson|Dr. John Watson]] stated that he was a fan of the explorer's adventures and the Doctor remarked sadly that he was looking for him.

Fenn-Cooper and [[Arthur Conan Doyle]] saw giant reptiles which resembled [[dinosaur]]s. During a hunting trip to [[Africa]], Redvers saw a bright light that made him mad. He claimed it had wings. As a result, he had a morbid fear of light itself. | |||
By some unknown means, Fenn-Cooper was taken to Gabriel Chase and was taken care of there, after a fashion, "for his own protection". The new head of the household, the alien [[Josiah Samuel Smith]] (who had caused the murder of the house's previous owner) had manipulated Redvers into believing he must assassinate [[Victoria|Queen Victoria]], who Smith wanted to depose. Smith planned to use the invitation from the queen which Fenn-Cooper had received to enable him to go and shoot the queen using Redvers' hunting skills. | |||
Redvers struck up a relationship with the alien [[Control (Ghost Light)|Control]]. When the invitations came, he decided to take Control instead of Josiah, thus crushing the plan. He then joined Control and [[Nimrod]] in exploring the universe in [[Light]]'s ship.
