Jon certainly was one of the finest actors and gentlemen to have ever graced our screens and airwaves. He was one of the best Doctors to play the role, but to me will always be fondly remembered as dear ol Worzel Gummidge. He used to make me laugh every time he uttered the words 'Cup of tea and a slice of cake Aunt Sally' to the wonderful Una Stubbs. Sadly missed and greatly respected, R.I.P Jon Pertwee 💐

We wrote to John and told him we couldn't get tickets as they were sold out and could we have a signed autograft. John invited us to come to the theater after the show and he met us and sat our daughter on his knee dressed as Worsel and we had a photo. Aunt Sally [Una Stubbs] came in and made such a fuss of our daughter, they were so kind.

Jon was my most favourite of the Doctors. He brought style, intelligence and was handsome too, by far the best looking Dr Who, and he made the role feel more realistic. His cloak was a classic, something mysterious and cavalier about it, his look was the best of all the docs, and his face is one you don’t forget. Such a tragedy to loose him so young, as he had so much more to give. 😢

I hadn't realised Jon Pertwee had insisted so strongly he should play the Doctor his own way - and how right he was. You can see moments of 'zaniness' written into the first episodes but they evaporate quickly. I love his Doctor - serious, vain, moral, indignant, totally charming and heroic.

I met Jon Pertwee twice. He came very close to my home town of Bargoed in April 1973. The BBC came to the village of Deri , near Caerphilly, South Wales to film an episode of Doctor Who:"The Green Death". He flew over my school in a helicopter,my friend Lee ran out to see him. I met Jon Pertwee again in April 1994 when he returned to the area to open a visiting centre. BBC Wales were there to film it and I ended up on the news with him at 6pm. He was lovely.

I agree, he was the best Doctor, or at least in the top 3. While Patrick Troughton is often credited with keeping Doctor Who going after the first regeneration, it was Jon Pertwee who ensured Doctor Who evolved and survived the modernisation of colour and the move to more mature stories. Without Jon Pertwee, it's likely Doctor Who wouldn't have survived long enough for Tom Baker to come into the role.

One of the best Dr's along with Tom Baker and David Tenant. Loved him in Worzel Gummage too. Love the fact that Diana Doors got to work with the legendary Goldie Hawn, even if it were before my time. Love Goldie, hilarious and beautiful woman.

My sister and I would hide behind the sofa when the Dr Who theme tune came on the telly! We'd be terrified of the monsters but the sight of our favourite Doctor always reassured us that the good guys would win and we'd come out of our "den" and be enthralled by the show, magnificently creative as it was!

He is probably my favorite Doctor of them all. I loved so much what he brought to the role. I started with Tom Baker back in the 80s who personified Dr. Who to me originally. Then later they showed reruns of Pertwee's era. At first I didn't think much of him as Dr. Who, but he really grew on me over time and became a big favorite if not my all time favorite. To me he personifies the best in Dr. Who. He really brought out the concept of an ET (Time Lord) that is more human than human. It really was a brilliant way of playing the role that sticks out. Seems like he has quite a big cult following as a favorite Doctor these days, from what I've seen. He was sort of the peak of the entire series in my mind. Some of the best scenes were ones with him and Roger Delgado together. For example the fencing scene in The Sea Devils. That's not to say the rest of them weren't great. There are quite a few others that make it hard to pick a favorite. Hartnell, Troughton and Pertwee had such a great stage presence. It's like those three I could watch all day simply because of how gripping their performances and Doctor Who personas were. Some of the best scenes were them practically monologuing. Half of the time the companions were more there for support and to translator for the audience.

Thank you Tracy! You’ve made my day with your lovely comment! 🥰 I’m so pleased you both enjoyed the video ❤️ Thank you for watching xxxx

Just to let you know, the character John played on Dr. Who was simply known as ‘the Doctor’…. From this video it looks like John had quite a life and career. And I think of all the original Doctors he was my favorite. But there was more to him than alien monsters and sonic screw drivers …. RIP John

I think the credits always said 'Doctor Who'. David Tennant insisted that he was credited as 'The Doctor', when he took on the role, and as both he and Russell T Davies were lifelong Who fans, it was changed

I am a massive fan of jon pertwee my favourite doctor who and I love the navy lark and all his work I am so happy I found this channel as I love old films and TV shows wishing you and yours all the best from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪

Thank you so much Michael! I have to say as you have probably realised - for me vintage films are everything!!! There are few modern films that get anywhere near the vintage films watchability! xxx

The Doctor I grew up with - when interviewed, he was funny, well mannered, and from those, I met (who met Jon) one of lives gentlemen - a pretty good legacy

Great video! He had some horrible experiences during his early life…glad he found love and happiness, his son Sean, is a brilliant actor, he looks so much like his Dad. Jon Pertwee was brilliant as Dr Who. R.I.P.

Such an underrated actor, he really had great stage presents, a distinctive voice and mannerism, I would have loved to see him in some serious big production films because he really was so talented, His son Sean is also a great and underrated actor.

Jon was a great talent with multi facets. The likes of Jon are non existent now sadly. He first made me laugh on the Navy Lark radio show, then in comedy films and later TV as Dr Who and Worzel Gummidge.

Thanks for a wonderful story of a great actor. Two things jumped out at me. 1) was that Jon was in the Navy Lark, the producer of it was one of my mother’s best friends, Alastair Scott Johnstone. 2) that you ended up at Putney Vale crematorium which was a short distance (200m) from where my first marital home was located. So thank you for bringing two lovely memories back to my mind. You make the best videos of these great personalities, so again a big thank you for that.

And that you lived so close to Putney Vale! I grew up regularly visiting Putney - my grandparents on my mum’s side lived in Wandsworth and my Nan used to take me to Putney on shopping expeditions! ❤️

It's amazing how much the younger Jon looks like Danny Kaye.

I've been listening to the navy lark on Audible today, Jon was amazing with his various voices, I also listened to his son Sean singing fireball from love,honor, obey. I only found the film because I'm a fan of Tony Christie and like to hear covers of his songs, so when I saw a clip of avenues and alleyways sung by the cast as the opening credits for love, honor, I had to watch it. On the navy lark cds there a bonus track of Jon doing a duet with June Whitfield singing have I stayed away to long. RIP JON ❤❤

John Pertwee was a favourite actor or mine as a youngster, and the only Dr Who era doctor I watched as a kid. He always came over as such nice man. Can't believe how much the young John looked like his own son Sean in the photgraph you showed.

The family resemblance is striking I agree! I’ve heard so many lovely things about Jon as a person - it seems he was very kind and generous ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for this. Excellent. Cheers. It was always a joy to notice Jon Pertwee crop-up in roles in film, radio & TV. My father was an Officer in the RN, so "The Navy Lark" was a regular feature of my childhood. It also just so happens that Jon appeared in 3 of my all time favourite Carry Ons. Doctor Who was a given. As for Worzel, I was a little too old for that and never saw it. We are lucky enough to have his son Sean, who is an incredible actor.
