The 3rd Doctor, Sara Kingom and Dr. Who - Classic Footage circa 1955!
![]()
Yes, that is our dapper, debonair dandy of a 3rd Doctor Jon Pertwee, pictured in 1955 with then-wife Jean Marsh (who played three different roles in Doctor Who, the most notable of which was companion Sara Kingdom in The Dalek Master Plan, a role she has recently reprised on a number of occasions for Big Finish audio productions). The photo is a still from recently released (and quite wonderful) footage of a “Waistcoats for Women” fashion gala which can be seen at the British Pathé website. If one Doctor wasn’t enough, the footage also includes 60’s movie “Dr. Who” himself, Peter Cushing. When looking at the footage, one can see that Jon Pertwee’s choice of dress as the Doctor didn’t exactly come out of nowhere!

What a treasure - excellent find! By the way, typing the name William Hartnell scores 4 hits on that site…

The system isn’t allowing me to post links, but be sure also to enter Jean Marsh’s name for clips from 1951 and also another appearance by Mr and Mrs Pertwee at the 1954 edition of the Waistcoat Club!
