Remembering Jon Pertwee on the Anniversary of his Birth with Wink Taylor

Christian Cawley is a writer at Kasterborous Doctor Who News and Reviews - All the latest Doctor Who news and reviews with our weekly podKast, features and interviews, and a long-running forum.

On July 7th 1919, Jon Pertwee was born. Let’s celebrate the great man’s birthday with Wink Taylor’s interpretation of the Third Doctor!

We’ve featured Wink Taylor’s work on Kasterborous previously, but this is a particularly special piece of voice artistry, and well-timed for the anniversary of Jon Pertwee’s birthday. It can be no coincidence that Doctor Who attracts actors with fascinating pasts, but although weasel bending and the attempted murder of a mother-in-law (we’ll let you guess which Doctors are which…) are particularly compelling, Jon Pertwee simply stands head and shoulders above the rest (literally in most cases) with his exploits with British naval intelligence during the Second World War.

So we make a rare exception to our rule of not wishing happy birthday to deceased cast members and say, happy birthday, Jon Pertwee – we remember you.
