He appeared in Danger Man and twice in Doctor Who, as Commander Radnor in The Seeds of Death (1969) and as Commander Stevenson in Revenge of the Cybermen (1975); and starred as Colonel Buchan in every episode of the 1960s and 1970s children's TV series Freewheelers. Later he appeared in "You Lose Some, You Win Some", an episode of series 2 of Minder and "Children of Auron" in the third series of Blake's 7.
