Mary Shelley, the English writer best known for her Gothic novel ''Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus'', has been featured in the fictional universe of the long-running British science fiction television series ''Doctor Who'' on a number of occasions, most prominently as a character voiced by Julie Cox in a series of audio plays produced by Big Finish Productions based on the series. In the various audio plays, she is a companion of the Eighth Doctor. ==Character history== Mary Shelley's appereances with the Eighth Doctor were the fruition of a nearly decade-long running gag in the Eighth Doctor's audio adventures. Since his first audio adventure, ''Storm Warning'', the Eighth Doctor had been dropping hints of a friendship with Shelley; in ''Storm Warning'', he had a copy of Shelley's ''Frankenstein'' in his TARDIS library, inscribed to him by her, and after he read the preface aloud, he mentioned that what Mary wrote wasn't the entire truth about what happened. Mary's first appearance is in ''Mary's Story'', a story part of the audio anthology ''The Company of Friends''. Mary initially encountered the Eighth Doctor in Switzerland in June 1816 and witnessed him apparently coming back to life after being dead, providing inspiration for Frankenstein. Mary then left with the Doctor and travelled with him in his journeys. In ''The Silver Turk'', hours after leaving Lake Geneva, the Doctor took Mary to Vienna on 11 September 1873, where they encountered two Cybermen. In ''The Witch from the Well'', she visited Lincolnshire in 2011 and in the 1650s, where she encountered some Varaxils who were looking for a human who could channel Odic energy. She also met Aleister Portillon, Earl of Wetstone, who was obsessed with Lord Byron and had a biography on Mary herself. During her travels with the Doctor, Mary met Axons and King Harold Godwinson at the Battle of Hastings on 14 October 1066. After their adventure in ''Army of Death'', Mary decided to leave the Doctor's company, as she feared his "other companion", death. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mary Shelley (Doctor Who)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
