Doreen, who was referred to as a "she" by the Doctor, was by the time traveller's admission somewhat mentally disturbed, and was known to try to chat up a [[dustbin]] the Doctor kept somewhere in his TARDIS. Although still occasionally shouting "Exterminate!", Doreen displayed no actual interest in [[extermination]], instead desiring the company of [[human]]s and [[humanoid]]s; shortly after making his acquaintance, she even insisted on [[waltz]]ing with [[Brigadier (Hallo My Dalek)|the Brigadier]].

Doreen kept her [[Dalek eyestalk|eyestalk]] raised straight above her head like an antenna at all times, though this did not seem to impair her navigational abilities. She possessed a few other physical peculiarities: she was capable (and, indeed, fond) of eating [[metal]]; and, if one yanked down her [[manipulator arm]] like the lever of a slot machine, her [[casing]] could function as one, releasing a flood of coins.
