'''Cass''' was second in command of [[the Drum]], an under[[water]] [[mining]] facility in [[Caithness]], [[Scotland]]. She was also [[deaf]], and used her good friend [[Tim Lunn]] to translate her [[British Sign Language|sign language]]. | |||

Despite this, she led the remaining crew to the base's [[Faraday cage]], where they would be safe from the [[ghost]] leader [[Albar Prentis]]. | ||
After Pritchard's death, Cass was | After Pritchard's death, Cass was recognised as the leader of the team. When the [[Twelfth Doctor]] arrived, he hatched a plan to trap the ghosts. However, Cass and [[Alice O'Donnell]] stayed back to man the controls. Cass was able to lip-read the silent words that the ghosts kept repeating in unison, which proved vital to locating an alien artefact. | ||

The three retreated into the dining area, where Cass expressed her doubt the Doctor would rescue them. They then caught sight of a glowing figure outside in the water only to stare in horror at the sight of a ghostly Doctor, ([[TV]]: ''[[Under the Lake (TV story)|Under the Lake]]'') which in fact was a hologram created by the Doctor's [[sonic sunglasses]].

When the ghost Doctor arrived, he opened the Faraday cage and released the other ghosts. Cass went out to search for Lunn, who had gone in search of Clara's [[iPhone|phone]]. She was attacked by Moran's ghost, but narrowly escaped. | |||

After the threat was ended, Lunn, Cass and [[Mason Bennett|Bennett]] were the only survivors of the base personnel. Looking in on O'Donnell trapped in the Faraday cage with the other ghosts, Bennett had Lunn translate a message from him to Cass that revealed that Lunn was in love with Cass and how Bennett wished he'd told O'Donnell before she'd died that he loved her. Cass was shocked by Lunn's confession and he quickly apologised before she shocked him by passionately kissing him. ([[TV]]: ''[[Before the Flood (TV story)|Before the Flood]]'') | |||

Cass is the first deaf character to appear in ''Doctor Who''. [[Sophie Stone]] is not the first deaf actor to appear on the show, however. [[Tim Barlow]], who played [[Tyssan]] in [[Season 17 (Doctor Who 1963)|Season 17]]'s opening four-part story ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'', was profoundly deaf at the time of filming, but was able to lip-read. | |||
