[Afamilyatwar-list] Patrick Troughton/Lesley Nunnerly

[Brian Renforth]

I can't say I'm familiar with Paul of Tarsus but know Patrick played Robin Hood in a mid '50s BBC production (not to be confused with the ITC series starring Richard Greene). I guess they no longer exist in the archive but will be doing some research.

Many of his Dr Who stories suffered the fate of the bulk VT erasing machine sadly. In my view it was Troughton who made Dr Who the success it is /was.

One story I especially hoped would be recovered was "The Enemy of the World" where Patrick played two parts, Doctor Who and the dictator Salamander. Until a few years ago only Episode 3 (of 6) survived.

I was absolutely elated to hear the missing five episodes were found in the Nigerian archive and now issued complete and unedited on a BBC DVD.

This 1967 story also boasts a fine performance from Colin Douglas!

As for Lesley Nunnerly I can't think of anything else she appeared in but again I'll be doing some research and will get back to you on this.

These two wonderful actors (I suspect Dr. Who was a stopover for actors who needed a fast buck, er, bob) did a series in 1960 called Paul of Tarsus, starring Dr. Who, erm, Patrick Troughton. Has anyone seen it? I know much of British TV was wiped out for available film or videotape. Can anyone recommend something that Lesley Nunnerly has done; her acting skills are incredible, even if she curtailed them for whatever reason.
