By 1936, Billy had starred in films in produced in London, including I'm an Explosive and While Parents Sleep. Billy's friend, Max Miller, invited him down to Brighton to pick up some tips.

When Miller encountered the Sixth Doctor and Evelyn Smythe and began assisting them in their investigations of some mysterious murders and disappearances, Billy was entirely sceptical of the Doctor's stories of evil aliens and disappointed by Miller's willingness to believe them.

After the alien entity was defeated and the Doctor and Evelyn departed, Miller headed back to the pub to tell Billy all about it. (AUDIO: Pier Pressure)

By the 1980s, (COMIC: The Infinite Astronaut) W. Hartnell had died and had been buried near to the grave of Ijezie Obiefune, which his daughter Alice and wife Ada visited often. (COMIC: Whodunnit?)
