Happy Birthday Bernard Cribbins OBE ! (1928). [I know Lis never appeared in a single scene with Bernard, although they were in the several of the same episodes of Doctor Who. Nonetheless, I can’t help wondering how different things might have been if Bernard had become the Doctor after Jon Pertwee. Bernard was on the short list to be the Fourth Doctor. It was only after Head of Drama Serials, Bill Slater mentioned Tom Baker to Barry Letts that Tom was settled on to become the Doctor with Lis as Sarah Jane] The Derker, Oldham, Lancashire native is much beloved by Doctor Who fans for his portrayal of Donna Noble’s grandfather Wilfred Mott. But Bernard also is a most accomplished actor with a long history of bringing joy to viewing audiences. Have a look at the filmography below and be amazed. A couple notes of interest about Bernard. 1. Bernard was on the short list to become the Fourth Doctor. It was only when Head of Drama Serials, Bill Slater recommended Tom Baker to Barry Letts, that the timeline of Doctor Who took that turn. 2. For our friend Andrew: You noted Bernard’s correct use of military salute. In 1947, Bernard took time off from acting to do his duty with National Service and joined a parachute regiment in Aldershot.
