Geoffrey's White Charger

A powerful destrier (later named Geoffrey's White Charger) featured in two key moments of alliance and duress: first, when responding to Turlough’s slap on the rump to carry Geoffrey across the drawbridge toward London (marking fragile cooperation amid the Master’s plot), and later when Turlough forces Sir Geoffrey onto it as they flee the courtyard (repurposed for urgent travel under tension). The horse’s submission and subsequent resistance both underscore its dual role as transport and symbol of strained relationships between Turlough and Geoffrey.
