He suggested that Pertwee audition for the part of the Third Doctor after hearing of Patrick Troughton's departure from the role; Evans was unaware that the Doctor Who production office was already considering Pertwee for the role[2].
When Patrick Troughton died, Evans took over his role in the ITV sitcom The Two of Us.
