Andrew Sachs
Andrew Sachs (born Andreas Siegfried Sachs, 7 April, 1930) is a German-born English character actor who provided the voice of Skagra in the webcast/audio version of Shada, based upon a Season 17 Doctor Who story that was never completed.
Sachs is best known for playing Manuel on the classic 1970s comedy series Fawlty Towers opposite John Cleese. In 2008, Sachs found himself in the centre of a controversy at erupted when he was the victim of a crude prank phone call played upon him on BBC Radio by comedian Russell Brand and on-air personality Jonathan Ross regarding Sach's daughter, a burlesque artist. The prank resulted in a BBC official resigning and Brand and Ross being disciplined. Around this time, Sylvester McCoy suggested that Sachs would make the best replacement for David Tennant, soon to leave the role of the Doctor.
