Biography[]

Phil was born in Peckham Hospital on 7 January 1979 at 3:50pm, the same point in time and space a group of Vandosians believed Shogalath was reincarnated.

Phil always believed that his future was something amazing that would one day reach him. However his life was going nowhere. At 26 he was single lived at home and worked a humiliating job at cheeky chicken take away where his boss treat him with contempt. In 2005, Phil’s boss harshly berates him for not cleaning his mop correctly and warns him its company property. Phil was cleaning Cheeky Chicken that night, when the Vandos Tribunal teleported him along with his bucket of ammonia on board the Vandosian ship. The Tribunal identified Phil as Shogalath and called for his execution. Rose Tyler blew up the court with the Ninth Doctor's sonic screwdriver and she and the Doctor escaped with Phil towards the TARDIS. Believing them to be servants of Shogalath, the Vandosians sent Bailiffs after the Doctor and Rose. Phil slowed the slowed the Doctor and Rose down by refusing to abandon his bucket as it was company property. He stopped running briefly when the Doctor yelled at him about this. Rose identified Phil was merely clinging to the only object he had that was familiar and managed to calm him down.

The Bailiffs caught up with the Doctor and Rose just as they reached the Tardis and were about to eat them, when Phil threw ammonia at them. The Bailiffs were burned and they dropped the Doctor and Rose. The Doctor dematerialised the TARDIS outside the Vandosian ship declaring victory. The Vandosians attempted to fire at the island of Great Britain, but thanks to the Doctor's earlier meddling, it backfired, destroying the ship. The Doctor explained to Phil that Shogalath was the leader of a peaceful revolt, and not a monster. Phil was returned home and realised the future was something to find not to wait for. As he walked away he smiled and threw away the bucket he was carrying implying he was going to do something better with his life and leave his job. (COMIC: Mr Nobody)
