'''Reg Cranfield''' played the [[Policeman (An Unearthly Child)|policeman]] seen during the opening credits of ''[[The Pilot Episode]]'' and ''[[An Unearthly Child (TV story)|An Unearthly Child]]''. ([[DWMS Summer 1994]]) Some sources, such as ''[[The Complete History]]'' volume 1, credit the role to [[Fred Rawlings]], despite the fact that Cranfield is listed as playing the part in the production paperwork for both versions of the first ''[[Doctor Who]]'' television story. Either these sources are mistaken or Rawlings played the part in one of the unused versions. | '''Reg Cranfield''' played the [[Policeman (An Unearthly Child)|policeman]] seen during the opening credits of ''[[The Pilot Episode]]'' and ''[[An Unearthly Child (TV story)|An Unearthly Child]]''.

Cranfield, therefore, has the unique distinction of being the very first actor to appear on ''Doctor Who''; he later went on to appear in more than a half-dozen other ''Doctor Who'' stories into the 1970s. | Cranfield, therefore, has the unique distinction of being the very first actor to appear on ''Doctor Who''; he later went on to appear in more than a half-dozen other ''Doctor Who'' stories into the 1970s. |
