History

Ultraman Gaia

Georgie has a mixed Japanese and Australian heritage. She is mainly responsible for communication with other units, such as the GUARD bases around the world, in Japanese or foreign languages, in the command room of the Aerial Base, and for the control of fighter deployment for the XIG team.

Due to her understanding of precision machinery and technology, she has worked with Atsuko to repair the main computer of the Aerial Base, successfully repairing the Aerial Base, which got damaged by Agul. ^{Agul vs. Gaia}

In the final battle, she and Atsuko supported Team Hercules on the GBT-Stinger to the front line to cover Gamu. ^{Earth is Ultraman's Star}

• There appears to be a bit of a running gag with Georgie betting over certain things.
• Georgie is the first person in an Ultraman TV series to use the term 'Ultrawoman'.
• In a 2018 interview, Gow said foreign actors were rarely cast in similar shows before this series and she was often called "the first regular foreign cast member."
