Bill Burridge

Bill Burridge had several roles in Doctor Who between 1965 and 1973, only one of which he was ever credited for.

Career

His other television credits include roles on Taxi!, Doomwatch, The Wednesday Play, Z-Cars and Upstairs, Downstairs.

On set accident

According to Terence Denville, during the filming of Frontier in Space the metallic greasepaint he was wearing for his role as a Draconian entered his bloodstream and caused him to have a brain seizure. This incident caused an end to Burridge's career and forced him into a nursing home. Due to Equity being unable to contact him in 1976 he is believed to have died a short time after the accident, possibly in 1975.
