    Deadpool Detective Work

    This is one reason I brought him up. I was watching the behind the scenes documentary on The Abominable Snowmen DVD containing interviews with the surviving guest actors Raymond Llewellyn and John Hogan (who has now died since the interview) but no mention of Baron besides the Pinter situation you've mentioned. I would assume that he has either died or it is just too common a name to track him down now he's off the radar. If he is dead then that just leaves Llewellyn as the final guest actor still living from that serial.

    The first thing that comes to mind is that he might be given a lordship when Johnson finally leaves. But considering recent events that wouldn't make much sense.

    About to turn 98 but he looks and sounds about 10-15 years younger

    Ideas and possibilities for 2023

    Absolutely worth missing IMO. There are too many people who are in that age rage (early 90s) that are otherwise in perfect health that have a chance of dying of natural causes at any time but they're not put on the list because they could still have another 10 years in them. It is much wiser to wait for a lot of people in that camp until they hit 96/97 and then use them. The list should be the seriously old, the ill and old ill people. Some picks might not be as famous as those not picked but someone with terminal disease has a much higher chance of dying than a random 90-something. Eastwood is only being mention because he is a big name no one has made a fuss about Sir Raymond Johnstone being a miss when he was the same age as Eastwood and equally as qualify-able.

    British Science Fiction Series

    A table showing how many credited cast members are still living from every single episode of Classic Doctor Who. For those who don't want to read the whole thing, the only episode with a confirmed sole survivor is The Deadly Assassin that being Tom Baker, there are five episodes with non of the main cast (Doctor, Companion, UNIT trio) surviving those being Spearhead from Space, Doctor Who and the Silurians, The Time Warrior, Death to the Daleks and The Monster of Peladon however all of these episodes do have at least one actor confirmed to be living. A star in the confirmation box means that the number of living guest cast is possibly lower than stated due to some actors having very few credits (such as the children in The Celestial Toymaker) in their acting career or having stopped acting decades ago but with no confirmation of death (or living status). For a lot of the later episodes those numbers are probably the most accurate due to the fact that actors will have been younger at the time and are probably still alive but for some no new information will be found out about them before their death, which the Doctor Who fandom will almost certainly know about somehow when it ultimately happens.

    The Classic Doctor Who directors that are still with us, someone did this about 5 years ago so i thought i'd give it an update, since there have been 7 deaths since 2017. Waris Hussein (1938), 2 Serials 1963-64 Richard Martin (1935), 5 Serials 1963-65 John Gorrie (1932), 1 Serial 1964 Michael Imison (1935), 1 Serial 1966 John Davies (1934), 1 Serial 1967 Gerry Mill (?), 1 Serial 1967 Tristan de Vere Cole (1935), 1 Serial 1968 Timothy Combe (1936), 2 Serials 1970-71 Michael E. Briant (1942), 6 Serials 1971-77 Darrol Blake (1937), 1 Serial 1978 Paul Joyce (1944), 1 Serial 1981 John Black (1940), 2 Serials 1981-82 Tony Virgo (1948), 1 Serial 1983 Michael Owens Morris (?), 1 Serial 1984 Matthew Robinson (1944), 2 Serials 1984-85 Graeme Harper (1945), 2 Serials 1984-85 (12 post 2005 episodes) Sarah Hellings (1945), 1 Serial 1985 Chris Clough (1951), 6 Serials 1986-88 Andrew Morgan (1942), 2 Serials 1987-88 Alan Wareing (1958), 3 Serials 1988-89 Geoffrey Sax (?), TV Movie 1996 Norman Stewart, 2 Serials 1978-79, is reportedly deceased however I cannot find a date. To my surprise there is a quite a few pre-1980 directors left considering that there is only one writer from that time frame (Chris Boucher) .

    William Russell

    The latest Doctor Who Blu-Ray collection has been announced featuring (from what i can tell) a recent interview with William Russell (who is now 97). If this is recent he is looking a lot better than other people his age.

    Thanks for answering my questions PMed my team.
  14. Commtech Sio Bibble

    What's on the Telly?

    1) Would a multi-part story count as more multiple episodes or as just one episode. For example. Doctor Who - Many actors only appear in one serial but each serial can be 2-12 episodes with the cast running all the way through all parts Seinfeld - Some episodes are split into two parts e.g. The Pilot (S4) once again with cast members appearing in both parts 2) Archive footage (clip shows, flashbacks, etc...) , does it count as a second appearance 3) Minisodes - Some shows will have shorter "mini" episodes that will have been created for one reason or another (Fund raising, online exclusives, dvd extras) do these count (examples - Doctor Who, Not Going Out, Sherlock, The Office US)

    Yikes never realised that. One of my favourite moments in Doctor Who is at the end of that serial when Benton re-ages, tarnished a bit now.

    After a few seconds of research it appears there was one... Actress Jean Conroy died about a month before the airing of her role in The Dalek Invasion of Earth (1964)

    I can't think of anyone in the mainline show but Elisabeth Sladen passed before the airing of the final season of the Sarah Jane Adventures

    Thought it only right to mention the passing of David Warner here considering his massive involvement in Doctor Who, from roles on TV to playing the Doctor himself in Big Finish. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-62219839

    I fear that is going to be a similar situation to what happened to Howard Attfield in 2007, who was also filming for Doctor Who as Donna's male parental figure before he died.

    He also doesn't really appear that much in real lift anymore. I live in West Yorkshire and always used to see him on my local town street about 2 or 3 times a month. I don't think I've seen him at all since lockdown restrictions were lifted. I don't know him personally, this is just an observation.
