From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Olaf Pooley (13 March 1914[1][2]- 14 July 2015)[3] played Professor Eric Stahlman and Director Stahlmann in the Doctor Who story Inferno.
He had a role in Star Trek: Voyager in 2000, making him one of the very few actors to appear in both Doctor Who and Star Trek.
In 1966, he starred in the six-part Southern TV adaption of T.H. White's adventure novel The Master, playing the 157 year old titular character, who has the power of hypnosis and thought-transference, with aspirations of world domination.
In his final years, he took to painting, and celebrated his 100th birthday with an exhibition of his own works.
He was the second person, and first male, associated with Doctor Who to reach the age of 100, after actress Zohra Sehgal.
