Norton gave an alien pathogen to the US government for the development of the Good Thinking virus and was later brought in to try to control it, but found that there was no cure but to contain and burn the infected. He watched Jack Harkness burn with a number of people that he tried to save and visited him in hospital, after which he helped to try to destroy all trace of the virus.
He and Jack entered into a sexual relationship and devised a protocol should the virus return. In , Norton used a soft-light projection device to visit on the Committee's orders to find Object 1. He claimed to be a Torchwood assessor and manipulated Andy Davidson in assisting him in his search, locating the object in a spaceship in a clone factory and taking it to the Committee in Bide-a-Wee Care Home.
Told by Roy to take it back to , he left a note for Jane telling her to say hello to Andy. Mitford told Norton to pass Object 1 on to Mandrake so that Torchwood would investigate his gang and recover it.
Ianto Jones brought Norton from to via soft-light projection to provide answers on Good Thinking. Norton told him what he knew and placed documents related to it in a time-sealed container in the Hub 's vaults, exploiting the protocol that he and Jack had devised, and programmed the cell doors to unleash the infected Jack on Ianto before telling Ianto how to initiate the emergency sterilisation system. Just before going into Stage 4, Jack broke the projector and sent Norton back to Norton acquired an alien painting inside of which was the key to a Martian tripod.
He stored at his boyfriend Alejandro 's studio and, after summoning Andy to the s to help clear his name when the Vicar began suspecting that he was a double agent and dealing alien weaponry with gangsters, he implanted the key into Andy's mind.
After Fat Kim used Andy to activate a tripod under Leicester Square , Norton killed her by transferring the key into her and the collapsing tripod killed the Vicar, removing the only two people aware of Norton's criminal dealings. Rather than admit his actions, Norton sent Andy back to the 21st century. Info from Ashenden needs to be added. Norton expected to succeed the Vicar as the head of Torchwood.
However, Rigsby instead got the job and relegated Norton to work with Lizbeth in Room 13 , a place where he quickly grew bored due to the monotonous nature of the work.
To better fund their activities, Norton began tracking down and killing Nazis. Whilst working in Room 13 , Norton was tricked into allowing Adam Smith into Torchwood after he promised to use his memory manipulation abilities to make Norton leader of Torchwood.
Norton and Lizbeth Hayhoe struggled to realise something was wrong as Adam took over Torchwood and rallied them to fight against the approaching Kernaz, however eventually deduced what was going on, despite numerous setbacks in their investigation when Adam kept altering their memories. Norton planned to take over Torchwood by exposing Reginald Rigsby to the Project Hermod fungus and saving the day using the Skylon , to which end he put an alert on the Torchwood computer which led Andy to save Gideon Lyme , unaware that Norton wanted Lyme alive in order to get the power of the Parnaeum to power the craft.
Lizbeth opened the package instead and exposed Torchwood to the infection, but he was able to go through with his plan and was left to rebuild Torchwood, which he invited Lyme to do with him, having begun something of a relationship with him. Norton boarded Flight in order to obtain the Lens for the Committee. However, he found himself caught in a time loop for which he blamed Jack Harkness, believing that he had put the plane in a time loop to stop the lens from falling into the wrong hands.
After sixty years aboard the plane, he managed to hijack Yvonne Hartman 's attempted summoning of Ianto as a hard-light hologram by using the lens. As a hologram, he assisted Yvonne and Andy in saving himself. Glasshouse Yard. Digital version: Google Books. Date accessed. Williams' Library.

An alternative explanation found in The National Gazetteer from describes Folgate as derived "from the Saxon word Foldweg , a highway, in allusion to the old Roman Road Ermine Street which passed through this place.
Its origin was as the area of land occupied by the inner precinct of the Priory and Hospital of St Mary Spital. This was dissolved during the English Reformation, but the land, reverting to the Crown, retained its status as an extra-parochial liberty. Within the 8. Maps from the 18th Century indicate that an area of land lying west of Bishopsgate was also a part of Norton Folgate but this area was probably part of the broader Manor and not part of the liberty itself.
This territory was originally quite extensive stretching from what is now Worship Street then called Hog Lane in a narrow corridor that ran parallel to Bishopsgate as far south as where Liverpool Street Station is today. However, by the 19th Century this had been reduced to just a small plot between Primrose Street and Worship Street. It has been suggested that Norton Folgate can be identified with the nine acres which the canons of St.
Paul's held at Bishopsgate ad portam Episcopi in the time of Domesday Survey and had held similarly in the time of King Edward the Confessor. Norton Folgate was also the site of the Gas Light and Coke Company , the works, also known as the 'Curtain Road Works', were established from about , when the Company received a contract to light Bishopsgate and supply the surrounding area with gas.
The site obtained was cramped, and riddled with springs. The Company was applying novel chemistry devised by Fredrick Winsor on an industrial scale, and these factors resulted in the Company paying substantial fines for non-delivery. The site was in operation from about to , when the new works at Beckton Gas Works took over supply for much of London.
Latterly it was used as a yard for taxis, before redevelopment in about It is noted as the sometime residence of the playwright Christopher Marlowe.
