Written By: karen on 07/28/22 at 5:29 pm
Doctor Who and Wombles actor Bernard Cribbins has died aged 93, his agent has confirmed.
During a career that spanned seven decades, Cribbins narrated the 1970s children's programme The Wombles.
He also played the Doctor's companion Tom Campbell in the 1966 film Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 AD returning 41 years later in the revived TV series.
Cribbins returned to the show as Wilfred Mott, the grandad of Catherine Tate's character Donna.
He played Wilfred from 2007 to 2010.
The actor was known by generations of children - he also played the station porter Albert Perks in 1970 film The Railway Children.

I loved The Wombles tv show, which Bernard narrated and voiced all the characters. He also read many stories on Jackanory and provided voice overs for several memorable tv adverts.

Yikes. We’ve lost quite a few Dr. Who cast members in the last year or so…
