Before Francine attended her son's twenty-first birthday, she was engaged in a dispute with her ex-husband because he was bringing his young girlfriend [[Annalise]]. Soon afterwards, she learned that Martha and the [[Royal Hope Hospital]] had been transported to [[the Moon]]. At the party, she stuck up for her daughter when Annalise made a comment suggesting Martha had lied about going to the moon. This grew into a heated argument which exasperated Martha, perhaps encouraging her to seek an escape with the Doctor.

She later phoned Martha to tell her that Tish had appeared on the news because she was an assistant to [[Richard Lazarus]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Lazarus Experiment]]'') She attended the launch of his de-ageing device with her son Leo and enountered the Doctor who, unknown to her, had been travelling the universe with her daughter ([[DW]]: ''[[The Shakespeare Code]]'', ''[[Gridlock]]'', ''[[Daleks in Manhattan]]''). She was initially suspicious of the Doctor's nature because of his social awkwardness. This suspicion was exacerbated as she was approached by a [[Mysterious Man|mysterious man]], who told her that the Doctor was highly dangerous.

After the Doctor stopped Lazarus and left with Martha, Francine left a message for her, telling her that the Doctor was bad news and dangerous. [[Harold Saxon]] had told her.

With the aid of her laptop, Francine was able to assist Martha by telling her that Elvis had more number one singles than the Beatles, helping her and [[Riley]] with their mission, although Francine believed Martha to be in a pub quiz. Martha later phoned Francine when her life was in danger, to tell her that she loved her, unaware that the phones were being bugged by [[Dexter|Miss Dexter]], who worked for Harold Saxon.

Harold Saxon, who was actually [[The Master]], had Miss Dexter use Francine to call Martha, in an attempt to lure her into a trap. When the plan failed, Francine was betrayed by Miss Dexter and kidnapped along with the rest of her family. Francine, Clive and Tish were taken to the ''[[Valiant (aircraft carrier)|Valiant]]'' where, after taunting the Jones', the Master released the [[Toclafane]] and sent them to decimate the [[Earth]]. Francine realised how dreadful a mistake she had made and tearfully apologised to Martha, who then vanished completely from the deck, leaving her family confused and alone.

Francine and Tish were humiliated by dressing up as maids, and were restrained by chains at night. She saw "half the world decimated", including the burning of Japan, and this left her traumatised. During that year aboard the Valiant, Francine--along with Jack Harkness, the Doctor, Clive and Tish- staged a failed rebellion against the Master and she was tortured into an apology. When the Master's plans unravelled and the Doctor restored, along with [[The Year That Never Was|time itself]], Francine attempted to kill him, but was talked out of it by the Doctor, who appealing to her better character. She was one of the only few who remembered the Master and knew of alien life. She was later seen in the window of her home when Martha decided to leave the Doctor, silently acknowledging him with a small nod of her head. ([[DW]]: ''[[Last of the Time Lords]]'') | ||

Francine had a very strong personality, sharing many similarites with [[Jackie Tyler]], and was an uptight, critical and demanding woman. She was also curious about what happened to Martha twelve hours before the events of [[DW]]: ''[[The Lazarus Experiment]]'', and seemed very suspicious of the Doctor, and his relationship towards her daughter. Before she was captured and tortured by the Master, she showed a deep dislike towards the Doctor, and wanted to know who he is, and what he was doing with Martha. She trusted people who told her the Doctor was dangerous, and went as far to agree for them to tap the phonelines whilst she was talking to Martha via phone. ([[DW]]: ''[[42 (TV story)|42]]'', ''[[The Sound of Drums]]'') She had quite a stressful life, such as her ex-husband dating [[Annalise|a very young woman]] who was about the same age as Martha, which made her very annoyed even though she was no longer married to him. Shockingly, she soon got back together with her ex, after being tormented and tortured by the Master. After the events during [[the Year That Never Was]], her feelings towards the Doctor changed, and she showed no dislikes to him further more.
