Borthwick

was aboard the the SS Batavia when it disappeared. Borthwick was furious when the Doctor told him he wouldn’t be seeing his loot ever again as the ship was sinking, but the Doctor was only interested in saving their lives. Borthwick ignored his offer and insisted on every man for himself. He called to the rest of the passengers to follow him to the lifeboats and within minutes the men were lowering the boats down towards the water. The Doctor told them he was already seen the future and if they go ahead with their plans none of them will live, but with Borthwick’s encouragement everyone jumped the twenty feet or so into the sea and started swimming towards the boats. The idiotic man was then killed by a sea mine. (AUDIO: The Girl Who Never Was)
