Alan Jackson

Alan is Maria's sympathetic, caring and very understanding father. He has a brilliantly easy going and casual relationship with Maria, which Sarah Jane would love to emulate with Luke. That doesn't mean he doesn't still do embarrassing dad stuff though. The odd ruffle of Maria's hair and insistence on a goodbye peck on the cheek before school, is enough to make anyone cringe. Working in the IT industry and recently divorced from Maria's mum, Alan lives a pretty suburban life. Little does he know that his fourteen year old daughter and her new friends secretly help to defend the Earth from alien activity. If he ever found out would he jump in and help, or take Maria as far away as possible?
