The Box of Delights (TV series)
Patrick Troughton was a familiar face on BBC TV from playing the Second Doctor in "Doctor Who"; a contemporary "Blue Peter" feature on the drama makes the connection that in the role of Cole Hawlings, the kindly Punch and Judy Man, Troughton was playing another mysterious, scruffy time traveller. Renny Rye noted that Troughton "who was my favourite Doctor Who...had a quality that is unsurpassed, I think, as someone to pull you into a tale."
Jacqueline Pearce
As well as appearing in the BBC children's programmes "Dark Season" (alongside Kate Winslet) and "Moondial", Pearce appeared in the "Doctor Who" serial "The Two Doctors" as Chessene, a bloodthirsty alien. She was associated with "Doctor Who" through her appearance in "The Fearmonger" as Sherilyn Harper, an audio drama by Big Finish Productions, and as Admiral Mettna in the webcast story "Death Comes to Time". Pearce returned once again to "Doctor Who" from 2015, this time opposite John Hurt, as a regular in the Big Finish audio series based on the adventures of the War Doctor, portraying Cardinal Ollistra, a leader of the Time Lords in the Time War who often clashes with the Eighth Doctor and the War Doctor over how far the Time Lords should be willing to go to achieve victory.
