For my Dad

Ut aliquando futurum praesidio.

Roll Call

Roll Call

Time Police Personnel

Commander Marietta Hay Commander of the Time Police. Attempting to modernise. A bit of an uphill struggle.

Captain Charlie Farenden Her adjutant. An astute young man.

Major Callen Head of Recruitment and Training. A bit of an enigma.

Major Matthew Ellis Recently promoted. Tipped for the top. If he lives long enough.

Lt Gordon Grint Recently promoted. Leading his first team. A very conventional Time Police officer.

Officer Celia North Formerly from St Mary’s. Fancied a change of career.

Officer Sarah Smith A bit of a bitch. Actually, quite a lot of a bitch.

Team 236 – Team Weird

Trainee Matthew Farrell Life’s a little more complicated these days. Still reluctant to have his hair cut.

Trainee Jane Lockland Brighter than everyone thinks. Definitely brighter than she herself thinks.

Trainee Luke Parrish Unwillingly trafficked into the Time Police. Not giving it his best shot.

Team 235 – All shaping up to be nice, conventional Time Police officers

Trainee Alek Anders

Trainee Alan Hansen

Trainee Stefan Kohl

Trainee Marco Rossi

Security

Officer Songül Varma Prisoner’s Friend, but not really.

St Mary’s Personnel – Grains of sand in the Time Police Sandwiches of Life

Deputy Director Tim Peterson Reprising his Roman patriarch role. Even less successfully this time around.

Dr Lucy Maxwell Historian. Enough said.

Miss Greta Van Owen Historian. As above.

Mr Markham Security. Got his hands full. Again.

Chief Technical Officer Very pleased to see his son.

Leon Farrell

Professor Andrew Rapson Unchanged over the years.

Dr Octavius Dowson As above.

Mr Tom Bashford Drowning – but only very slowly.

Miss Felix Lingoss Hair expert.

A Brief History of the Time Wars

A Brief History of the Time Wars

A long time ago in the future, the secret of time travel became available to all. Naturally, everyone wanted it and because the implications were imperfectly understood, the world nearly ended.

Old wars were fought and refought as world leaders continually pressed ‘Reset’ hoping for a more favourable outcome this time around.
