'''Joseph Williamson''' was a philanthropist in early-[[19th century]] [[Liverpool]]. | '''Joseph Williamson''' was a philanthropist in early-[[19th century]] [[Liverpool]].

== Biography == | |||
In the [[21st century]], | In [[1820]], he funded and supervised the digging of [[tunnel]]s (later known as the [[Williamson Tunnels]]) whose purpose was unclear to his contemporaries, although they did provide employment to the poor. He seemed to have some inkling of a [[The Flux|great upcoming cataclysm]] which would somehow justify the tunnels, although he only spoke of it cryptically and evasively. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Halloween Apocalypse (TV story)|The Halloween Apocalypse]]'') | ||
Williamson somehow found himself wandering in the corridors of the [[Temple of Atropos]] on the planet [[Time (planet)|Time]]. There, he stumbled upon [[Yasmin Khan]], who had been transported there after being swallowed by the Flux after it came into contact with [[vortex energy]]. The two exchanged a few words, with Yasmin informing him that from her perspective the year was much different from 1820. Williamson found this interesting, but soon wandered off, refusing to explain his presence or to let Yasmin follow her; he claimed people following him was always "to no avail", in his experience.

In the [[21st century]], his tunnels still existed and were called [[Williamson Tunnels]] in his name. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Halloween Apocalypse (TV story)|The Halloween Apocalypse]]'') | |||
