In the Big Finish Eighth Doctor audio adventures, Fitz Kreiner is voiced by Matt Di Angelo. He also in the BBC soap drama EastEnders as Dean Wicks.
Alexia MacInarah sat in the comfy armchair in the Console Room of the Eighth Doctor's TARDIS with her eyes closed, attempting to nap whilst waiting for Jaime to return from Tetrapyriarbus. With dozens of Tetraps after them, she had fully expected not to make it off the planet. She even thought herself and J.D would leave in the Sixth Doctor's TARDIS. Except she found herself being pulled towards the Eighth Doctor's TARDIS by his companion. So J.D had to follow them, and now here they were, flying through the Vortex with the Eighth Doctor.
The woman shifted slightly, trying to get comfortable, and curled up even more. Less than two minutes later something, or someone, woke her up. When she opened her eyes she saw Fitz sitting opposite her, grinning away. The fact that he was watching her sleeping made her feel rather uncomfortable.
"Oh, hello. Do you normally watch people sleeping?" Alexia queried as she shifted in the armchair so that she was sitting properly. She also found it strange how Fitz Kreiner looked very similar to that boy, Dean Wicks, from EastEnders.
"Normally it's The Doctor sitting there," Fitz replied. "Considering that's his favourite armchair. But I don't mind watching a pretty lady catching her beauty sleep!"
Eyes wide, Alexia stared back at the companion. She had a horrible feeling he was chatting her up. She was sure he was in his early twenties…and what she could remember from certain Eighth Doctor novelised stories she was pretty sure he came from…or after…the World War Two era. "I was just resting my eyes, that's all." She replied.
"Resting your eyes? A pretty lady like you doesn't need to rest her eyes!" Fitz said and winked at her.
Seeing this, Alexia blinked in disbelief and felt more uncomfortable than ever. She stood up and Fitz followed suit. "Do you know where John is?" She asked. "Doctor Smith." The boy didn't answer her, so Alexia turned away in order to leave the Console Room.
"Blimey! Do I stink or something?" Fitz wondered. "Normally when I lay on the charm the girls are usually falling at my feet."
Alexia stopped and grimaced. Charm? That boy has as much charm as a wet Wednesday. Angry, she turned on Fitz with a scowl on her face. "Listen up, kid. No amount of flirting or chatting up will get me to like you. I have no interest in you, not to mention you're far too old."
"Wait a minute!" Fitz interrupted. "I'm only twenty…"
"I'm from the future, you daft twat. And for the love of sanity, leave me the bloody hell alone!"
Fitz stared, dumbfounded at the woman as she turned away.
"Is there a wee problem?" Asked a Scots accented voice causing Alexia to halt in her steps.
Puzzled, Fitz looked over towards the console where the voice had come from. There was what appeared to be a naturally pale skinned, dark haired female he'd never seen before. "Who are you? Where did you come from?" He asked.
"Jaime!" Alexia cried out, ran towards her daughter and gathered her into a hug. "You had me so worried. I didn't think you were coming back!"
Jaime rolled her eyes and hugged her mum back. "I told you, you didnae need tae worry." She told her.
"I know, I know." Alexia replied and stood back. "How did it go?" It was more or less just a question about their escape from Tetrapyriarbus.
"It went well," Jaime replied. "She's safe and sound somewhere in the Universe." She could feel confusion and annoyance coming from the companion.
"Excuse me, but who are you?" Fitz now demanded. "Where did you come from?"
The Scots-girl turned her attention towards the boy, a bemused expression on her face. "Fitzgerald Michael Kreiner, only child to German and English parents, plays the guitar and likes to call himself Fitz Fortune," she spoke up. "Thinks he's gods gift to women." She added with a scowl.
Poor Fitz looked like he'd seen a ghost. "But I don't even know you!" He exclaimed. "How do you know so much about me?"
Jaime just smirked at him while Alexia put her arm around her daughter's shoulders. "My daughter is amazing. She can read Minds, along with a lot of other things."
Surprised, Fitz looked from one female to the other with a disbelieving expression. "She's your daughter? She looks nothing like you! Is she adopted?" He uttered. "Because a pretty lady like you doesn't look old enough to be a mother. Just how old were you?"
Both females were bemused by his utter and complete rudeness. "Really?" Jaime growled angrily. "That is not a thing tae ask somebody 'bout! Fitz Kreiner, go to sleep." Fitz's eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the floor in a deep sleep. Now Jaime turned to her mum. "C'mon, I think I know where The Doctor and John are." She said. The two females left the Cathedral-like Console Room.
As they walked along the corridor towards the kitchen, as that was where The Doctor and John apparently were, Jaime remembered the hurried chat she had awhile ago with her mother. "Hold on!" Jaime uttered and stopped walking. Alexia followed suit and looked back at Jaime with a questioning expression. "Have you still got those fruits?" She asked, noticing a guilty expression appear on her mum's face. It was pretty bloody obvious she still had them. "Hand them over!" Jaime told her mother, holding her hand out.
Alexia frowned, slightly annoyed. "Why?" She asked.
"I'll tell you why once you hand them over!" Jaime angrily answered back.
With a sigh, and not wanting to get on her daughter's bad side, Alexia reached into her pocket and pulled out three glowing Peach-like fruits. With great reluctance she handed them over to Jaime, but continued to stare at them.
"Thank you. Do you even know what they are?" Jaime questioned when she noticed what her mum was doing.
"Uhh, no…" Alexia replied thoughtfully. "Think the fruit seller might've mentioned it."
"Och, let me guess. Your focus were on these so much you didnae bother tae listen tae him?"
Alexia faintly nodded her head, which made Jaime groan in annoyance.
She shoved the fruits into her own pocket and snapped her fingers at her mother. Alexia blinked out of her daze and looked at Jaime, confused. "The fruits you had are called an Aphrodae, from a Planet known as Siren. They're basically a sweet and very addictive aphrodisiac. Humans just cannae handle them. That's why your attention was solely on the fruit."
"Oh!" Alexia muttered. "They're an aphrodisiac?" She sounded surprised and it washed off her as well.
"Aye. In fact it's a very potent aphrodisiac. It would have turned you into a desperate…maniac." She didn't elaborate on what kind of maniac her mum could have been. "How did you get them anyway? You didnae steal them, did you?"
A look of shock appeared on Alexia's face. "Of course I bloody didn't! His dog was ill and he was so grateful for my help he let me have a couple of pieces of fruit for free!" She defended herself.
Jaime nodded her head, believing what she was told. "Fair enough," she replied. "Next time you come across an alien fruit, and you're not sure 'bout it, come tae me or The Doctor first." With that said, Jaime continued on along the corridor.
"Yes, ma'am!" Alexia muttered sarcastically and followed her daughter.
In the kitchen they found The Doctor sitting at the table, drinking his cup of tea. When he saw Jaime enter the room his eyes widened and he stood up. "Jaime! You're safe!" He exclaimed and approached her. He pulled the Scots-girl into a hug and was watched on by Alexia.
"I was always safe." Jaime replied with a roll if her eyes as she returned the hug.
The Doctor didn't believe that. "Not when The Rani is involved. Where is she?" He asked.
"She's safe too!" Jaime answered him after she pulled away from The Doctor's hug. She looked around the kitchen with a frown. "Where's John?" She asked.
"Oh! He said that he had to 'go take a leak'." The Doctor replied and frowned. "Only that was fifteen minutes and thirty-nine seconds ago."
Jaime sighed. It was so obvious that John wasn't 'taking a leak'. What he was actually doing was seriously getting out of hand.
"Never mind, eh!" Alexia put her arm around her daughter's shoulders and led her to the table. "We can have a bit of a break before we leave."
The Scots-girl noticed a fresh cup of tea had appeared on the table, making her chuckle. "Okay, you've convinced me." She said to the TARDIS.
Alexia, Jaime and The Doctor all sat down to drink their tea. Less than a minute after sitting down, The Doctor became puzzled. "Where's Fitz? I sent him to find you," he said to Alexia. "He hasn't returned for some reason."
Alexia and Jaime quickly glanced at each other. "Yeah, about that," Alexia spoke up. "Do you normally let your companion watch you while you're sleeping? I mean, all I was doing was trying to nap and I opened my eyes to find him watching me. It was creepy to be honest."
Jaime noticed The Doctor was blushing. The only time she ever saw The Doctor blush like that was when Rose would flirt with him, or whenever Donna mentioned her. Was this version of The Doctor in a relationship with Fitz Kreiner? A boy from the mid 20th Century and who lived through World War Two.
"Oh, there's nothing wrong with someone wanting to watch over you while you sleep. I find it very calming." The Doctor replied and Alexia raised her brows incredulously.
"Tae be honest he was bein' a wee bit rude," Jaime told The Doctor. "So I put him tae sleep. He's okay and it's only for a couple of hours." She added when she felt his worry washing off him. "We left him in the Console Room." She further explained.
The Doctor breathed a sigh of relief. "Well as long as he remains unharmed then it's fine." He said.
Once again Jaime and Alexia exchanged glances before taking a sip of their tea.
