'''Frazer Simpson Frederick Hines''' (born [[22 September (people)|22 September]] [[1944 (people)|1944]]<ref>[https://www.famousbirthdays.com/people/frazer-hines.html Famous Birthdays]</ref>) played [[companion]] [[Jamie McCrimmon]] in ''[[Doctor Who]]'', from ''[[The Highlanders (TV story)|The Highlanders]]'' to ''[[The War Games]]'', and again in the twentieth anniversary special, ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'', and the [[Season 22 (Doctor Who 1963)|Season 22]] story, ''[[The Two Doctors (TV story)|The Two Doctors]]''. He also reprised the part in a special home video minisode, ''[[Emperor of the Daleks (home video)|Emperor of the Daleks]]'', included in the VHS release of ''[[More than 30 Years in the TARDIS]]''.


At the age of eight, after studying acting at the Corona Academy, he made his acting debut. He was thirteen when he appeared in [[Charlie Chaplin]]'s ''[[Wikipedia:A King in New York|A King in New York]]'' ([[1957]])  and by the age of fifteen, he had appeared in six films.  In [[1960]] he appeared in the eight-part serial ''[[Wikipedia:The Young Jacobites|The Young Jacobites]]''. His television roles included Jan in ''[[Wikipedia:The Silver Sword|The Silver Sword]]'' (1957-[[1958|8]]), Tim Birch in ''[[Wikipedia:Emergency Ward 10|Emergency Ward 10]]'' ([[1963]]-[[1964|4]]), and Roger Wain in ''[[Coronation Street]]'' ([[1965]]).  
He also recreated the role of the [[Second Doctor]] for [[Big Finish Productions|Big Finish]]'s audio adventures.


In ''Doctor Who'' he played the part of Jamie McCrimmon, a companion of the [[Second Doctor]], from [[1966]] to [[1969]] as well as reappearing in "The Five Doctors" ([[1983]]) and "The Two Doctors" ([[1985]]). The original script treament for "[[The Three Doctors]]" had called for him to return as Jamie in that story as well, but scheduling conflicts with his work on ''Emmerdale Farm,'' as well as objections by [[Jon Pertwee]] to what he perceived as too many characters in the story negated this.

Frazer Simpson Frederick Hines (born 22 September 1944[1]) played companion Jamie McCrimmon in Doctor Who, from The Highlanders to The War Games, and again in the twentieth anniversary special, The Five Doctors, and the Season 22 story, The Two Doctors. He also reprised the part in a special home video minisode, Emperor of the Daleks, included in the VHS release of More than 30 Years in the TARDIS.

He also recreated the role of the Second Doctor for Big Finish's audio adventures.

Career[[edit] | [edit source]]

At the age of eight, after studying acting at the Corona Academy, he made his acting debut. He was thirteen when he appeared in Charlie Chaplin's A King in New York (1957). By the age of fifteen, he had appeared in six films. In 1960 he appeared in the eight-part serial The Young Jacobites. His television roles included Jan in The Silver Sword (1957-1958), Tim Birch in Emergency – Ward 10 (1963-1964) and Roger Wain in Coronation Street (1965). He also had a role as the voice of Mission Control in the James Bond film You Only Live Twice (1967).

In Doctor Who he played the part of Jamie McCrimmon, a companion of the Second Doctor, from 1966 to 1969, and reappeared in The Five Doctors (1983) and The Two Doctors (1985). The original script treatment for The Three Doctors had called for him to return as Jamie in that story as well, but scheduling conflicts with his work on Emmerdale Farm, as well as objections by Jon Pertwee to what he perceived as too many characters in the story, prevented this.

After his three-year stint as Jamie in Doctor Who Hines resumed the life of a jobbing actor until 1972, when he was cast in the soap opera Emmerdale Farm as Joe Sugden — a role he played until 1994. Between making episodes of Emmerdale, as it was renamed in the 1980s, he has continued a career in the theatre and made occasional appearances on other TV shows.

He is also a noted amateur jockey.

In 2010, Hines took part in a series of audio dramas pairing Jamie with the Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker).

Hines has published two autobiographies: Films, Farms and Fillies (1996) and Hines Sight (2009).
