Audrey Hepburn

Audrey Hepburn was a human actor from the 20th century who had starred in such Hollywood films as Breakfast at Tiffany's and My Fair Lady. Her performances were highly regarded, earning her both an Oscar and the admiration of Graham and Grace O'Brien, who would watch My Fair Lady with their grandson Ryan Sinclair every Christmas. (PROSE: Mission of the KaaDok)

Martha Jones once tried to emulate her glamorous dress sense. (PROSE: Wetworld)

The Thirteenth Doctor stated she wasn't sure if her sunglasses had been owned by Audrey Hepburn or Pythagoras. (TV: The Ghost Monument) The sunglasses did, in fact, belong to Audrey Hepburn. During their previous incarnation, the Doctor was tracking a Barroxian surveillance probe in the Belgian Congo in a forest near where she was filming and needed his sonic sunglasses but accidentally left them in his TARDIS. As a substitute, the Doctor took Audrey's sunglasses which were lying unattended. Eventually remembering the true owner of the sunglasses, the Doctor travelled to Paramount Studios in California on 8 January 1961 with Graham, Ryan, and Yasmin Khan to return them. (PROSE: Mission of the KaaDok)

Behind the scenes[]

  • In the Brazillian dubbing of The Ghost Monument, Audrey and Pythagoras were changed for Carmen Miranda and Palmirinha, respectively.
