A deputy of Helena's, his role is similar to that of Ben Vincent and Bob Mathias.
The original character name was Doctor Ed Spandau. According to actor Sam Dastor: It wasn't called Dr Ed Spencer. The first script I received it said Dr Ed Spandau. Somebody had to point out to Fred Freiberger that Spandau was a well-known Nazi concentration camp. He said he didn't know this and said "call him Spencer then".
