'''Hawthorne''' was in charge of the Government of the [[Starship UK]], put in charge under [[Elizabeth X|The Queen at the time]]. He was responsable for making the [[Smiler]]s, a race of androids that were used to police the Starship UK, and turning the space station into a police state; he believed this was necessary for the continuation of the Starship. It was he who directed the [[Star Whale]] through torture.

It was he who directed the [[Star Whale]] through torture.


While he initially seemed to have usurped control from the Queen, he was revealed to have been acting under her original orders in regards to the Whale: every time she came close to the truth, he would take her to the [[Tower of London]] and reveal the whole truth to her, giving her a choice about whether to wipe her mind or release the whale. The [[Eleventh Doctor]] uncovered the situation and [[Amy Pond]] found out the Whale would direct Starship UK without torture, a fact that stunned Hawthorne. What happened to him after this is unknown. ([[DW]]: [[The Beast Below]])
