Nicholas Courtney

You began starring as the Brigadier in Doctor Who over forty years ago. If you're wondering if people will forget you, the answer is Hell no. When I saw you starring in Doctor Who, it was always great. Now your fans mourn because your death is something they hate. You starred with Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and several other Doctors too. You were Brigadier LethBridge-Stewart and you were a great asset to Doctor Who. You starred with William Hartnell in the Daleks' Master Plan. Besides being a great actor, you were also a nice man. You starred in 107 Doctor Who episodes during its 26 year run. Sadly you died of Cancer in 2011 at the age of eighty-one. (Dedicated to Nicholas Courtney who died February 22, 2011.)
