He was also production manager for the thirtieth anniversary "Dimensions in Time" sketch for Children in Need in 1993.

Together with Nathan-Turner, Ian Fraser, and Fiona Hughes, he formed Teynham Productions, a theatrical group specializing in Pantomime.

Downie died on 19 January 2006 after a long battle with cancer, having survived Nathan-Turner who died in 2002.
