== Biography ==
Tim attended [[Farringham School for Boys]] in [[1913]]. The [[Chameleon Arch|fob watch]] containing the Doctor's [[Time Lord]] essence communicated with him and instructed him. It could do this because Latimer had low level telepathic abilities it could access. It also granted him a vision of the First World War which he used to escape a shell at a critical moment. After the [[Family of Blood]] was defeated, the Doctor let Latimer have his watch to look after and for good luck. He fought in the [[First World War]] and survived. Like the Doctor, he did not like violence and refused to use a gun when the Scarecrows attacked, responding to a call of "Coward!" with "Yes sir! Every time!" an echo of the Doctor's answer to the question "Are you coward or killer?"

Many years later, the [[Tenth Doctor]] and [[Martha Jones]] saw him again as an old man, a veteran at a [[Remembrance Day]] ceremony. By this point he was apparently wheelchair-bound. He still recognised them and silently acknowledged them, with tears in his eyes. ([[DW]]: ''[[Human Nature (TV story)|Human Nature]]'' / ''[[The Family of Blood]]'')
