History[]
Ryan Sinclair is a young man with dyspraxia who, along with his step-grandfather Graham O'Brien and friend Yasmin Khan, travels in time and space with the alien known as the Doctor. Back on Earth he works in a warehouse to earn money to support himself while he studies for an NVQ so he can one day become a qualified mechanic.
Ryan's mother is dead and his father has been absent for most of his life. While travelling with his step-grandfather Graham he has gradually grown closer to him, and once even called him 'grandad', to Graham's great delight. He has also witnessed the brutal realities of state-sanctioned racism in 1950s Alabama, met King James I (who took a shine to him), helped to deliver an alien baby on a spaceship that was about to explode (the Doctor fixed it) and used grime music to trap whatever the collective noun for a group of giant spiders is in a panic room. (Actually, 'panic' would be a pretty good collective noun for a group of giant spiders.) It's fair to say that his horizons have been broadened considerably more than they would have been had he stayed in his warehouse.
