He was the only person to appear in every single episode of LOTSW - all 295 of them.

Loved this fella, in the very early LOTSW his characters lines and the way he delivered them was remarkable. RIP Cleggy

Great actor, he will be missed.

I watched Dr Who The Ice Warriors only the other night. Not his most famous role but he is a highlight in the serial.
