Jon Pertwee was a genius. THE best Doctor. god bless his soul.

The last 20 seconds of this clip are so sweet and quite moving.

A great, great charcter, warm, unassuming, funny and incredibly talented. To this day he is still the finest Dr Who and that is saying something. Jon Pertwee RIP, you will never be forgotten.

Agreed, he was and still is one of my childhood heroes.

What a lovely interview: both men sadly missed

What a lovely man actor and brilliant Doctor.

I'd almost forgotten this interview but as soon as he came out of the TARDIS with the red nose I knew what his first words would be! "It's the comic relief Doctor!" It came back after twenty or thirty years. It so good to see him here. What a wonderful interview.

what a great interview and a great bloke pertwee was- look at the gratitude in his face at the end with all the applause- an absolute genius and legend and true one off- rip jp- -----his son aint bad either!

one of the finest men who graced our tv screens,was mr pertwee,several generations of people have loved and laughed,his death is still a sad sad loss,jon we miss u.

Never fails to crack me up in The Navy Lark. Such a rich comedy cast and I always thought Jon and Ronnie worked so well together.

How can this not bring a smile to one's face? :))

Many thanks for uploading this! I've never laughed to the point of keeling over my whole life - what a hilarious loon Jon could be :3

Met him the year before he died when he open Princes mead in farnborough as Worzel Gummidgewith my wife and daughter. What a lovely man.

i love the part how he tells terry how he came up with worzels voice had me in bits

thank you for posting. He's got so much sparkle and charisma!

What a lovely man. Really makes you smile!

What a lovely man! I am too young to remember him as Doctor Who, BUT I do remember Worzel Gummidge!! LOLOL Fab! God bless you Jon!

Thanks for posting...Loved Worzel ...and JP was an absolute gentleman

You have to be Satan to hate this guy. The definition of class, character and epicess defined

My Favorite .. John Pertwee was such a talented man.. Miss him ;-)

For a dashing, charming man, he was certainly one hilarious man! XD Such a talented man! No-one could have done Worzel Gummidge as well as he did

great bloke and brilliant at voice's loved the Navy Lark on radio

deffinatly! thats what i say too :) im happy to say i met jon pertwee in a sci fi shop once.....sadly i was only 1 years old at the time! haha. mum and dad say he put on his wersal gummage voice and started talking to me! :D christopher lees done great aswell! still playing those sinister characters and what a great voice for it!

Mathematically Speaking, although Tom had a Record High Figure for City of Death (Mostly due to ITV being down in many parts of the UK), Jon's Era was the most Successful. He had a stable audience of around 10.1 Million & is concidered to be Dr Who's Peek. It Certainly got the most Money for budget. And it's easy to see why it was so popular with Jon as the Doctor. I Met him several times & always had the time to answer your questions. A True Gentleman & a Natural Hero. RIP Jon Pertwee

im so sad he's dead, he seems like he was such a funny and charming person

A very funny man who played probably the straightest Dr Who. For me he was the greatest Doctor.

70?? jeezz...he looked great! what a legend :D

He would've been a good comedian but he was an even better Doctor. One of the best :)

Jon's ability to put on a voice was just so great! (love the Noel Coward impersenation.)

Brilliant interview, Pertwee is a natural comedian.

His voices are hysterical!

My favourite Doctor. I remember being devastated when he regenerated in to Tom Baker. Then I got to like him too. Of the new Doctors Peter Capaldi is my favourite. A bit of a combination of Pertwee and Baker's Doctor. Did you know Pertwee was a spy during WW2? Answerable to Churchill himself.

Yep I have his autobiography he was also assumed dead after being blown up during the war. So thrown in the officers mess with other dead bodies

What a wonderful man

Why can't we see some of these episodes on TV these days?! Horror Channel showed a few around 3 years ago.

Top bloke.

Dashing!

Legend. R.I.P. Jon.

He did indeed. He'd be 90 this Year if he were still around, butv he'd very possibly still be acting, after all Christopher Lee is now in his Mid-80's but he hasn't stopped. Goes to show that so long as you look after yourself, you can age well and keep going doing what you love to do.

you are still missed RIP

That's when Dr Whos were real Dr Whos

❤

reminds me of Michael Flanders.

the stutter, good ol' Weatherby from Navy Lark

0:29 lol pure legend

Brilliant funny man

He's been dead, what, 12 years and he's still not retired!

Fastinating. Imagine if Worzel Gummidge was a series done by BBC or Thames Television. If you think about I don't think either of those companies would have suited this particular show. Maybe Southern Television does feel right.

Meant that in a good way, btw XD

The BEST Doctor Who. No-one has come close.

i just have to say he looks younger than 70,, he looks more like 45-50 years old not 70

@kenpoman100 Blasphemy!!! the best of the old doctors.

his 'voice' sounds like Popeye!

@kenpoman100 I was joking personally I prefer Pertwee and didn't like Baker that much.

Tom Baker was better! 😂
