Wilf (Trace Memory)

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Wilf was a dockworker at Tiger Bay, Cardiff, who died in an explosion while unloading the Facklaträfat.

One night in 1953, Wilf, along with his coworkers - Frank, Hassan and Michael - were ordered to unload a crate from the Facklaträfat with the promise of extra pay.

As the crate was being unloaded, it exploded with a flash of light and a force great enough to rock the ship towards its starboard. Wilf was killed when a further eruption from the crate sent a heavy iron nail into his chest.

He had a wife who he compared to a dragon. He smoked Woodbines and talked about football. (PROSE: Trace Memory)
