William Henry Hartnell ( 8 January 1908 – 23 April 1975 ) was an English actor.

At the outbreak of the Second World War, Hartnell served in the Tank Corps, but was invalided out after eighteen months as the result of suffering a nervous breakdown, and he returned to acting.

Hartnell usually played comic characters, until 1944 when he was cast in the robust role of Sergeant Ned Fletcher in The Way Ahead.

In 1948, Troughton made his cinema debut with small roles in Olivier's Hamlet, the TCF production " Escape " ( one of the stars of which was William Hartnell ), and a minor role as a pirate in Treasure Island appearing only during the attack on the heroes ' hut.

Troughton was the first Doctor to have his face appear in the opening titles of the show, and one of six Doctor Who actors to play two roles in the same story when he appeared as Salamander in The Enemy Of The World ( the others being William Hartnell in The Chase and The Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve, Tom Baker in Meglos, Peter Davison in Arc of Infinity, David Tennant in Journey's End, and Matt Smith in " The Rebel Flesh "/" The Almost People ").

During the filming, the character of Albert Fosdike, " Shorty " Blake's brother-in-law, was recast after actor William Hartnell turned up late for his first day of shooting.

From the world of fashion, Sir Norman Hartnell, dressmaker to the Queen, was born in Streatham.

The earliest Doctor Who serials, particularly during the First Doctor era had young male companions who were capable of the physical action that the elderly William Hartnell was not.

It was his role in This Sporting Life which brought Hartnell to the attention of the first Doctor Who producer Verity Lambert.

The custom for the Queens of France to wear deuil blanc mourning was the origin of the White Wardrobe created in 1938 by Norman Hartnell for Queen Elizabeth ( later the Queen Mother ).

Such had been the publicity surrounding her Norman Hartnell wedding dress, that the traffic in Knightsbridge was blocked for three hours.

For the rest of her life, she was associated with glamour and elegance, being a firm client of both Hartnell and Victor Stiebel in London before and after the war.

Earlier, in June 1991, a version with the first half edited together with the other take of the second half of the pilot was released on the VHS compilation The Hartnell Years ; later, in 2000, the complete version ( including both takes ) was released in a remastered form on VHS, along with The Edge of Destruction.

The story was originally released on VHS in 1990, and the unaired pilot ( edited with the second take of the TARDIS scene ) was released as part of The Hartnell Years in 1991.

Sir Norman Bishop Hartnell, KCVO ( 12 June 1901, London – 8 June 1979, Windsor ) was a British fashion designer.

More interested in performing, and designing productions, for the university Footlights, Hartnell was noticed by the London press as the designer of a Footlights production which transferred to the Dalys Theatre in London.

It even produced embroidered and prized Christmas cards during quiet August days, a practical form of publicity at which Hartnell was always adept.

Exactly why this was done is uncertain ; on the DVD, documentary designer Raymond Cusick guesses that it was written during rehearsals as a guide, and producer Verity Lambert surmises that it may have been written so that Hartnell could find the switch.

Scott Hartnell ( born April 18, 1982 ) is a Canadian professional ice hockey left winger who plays for the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League ( NHL ).

William Hartnell was born in Backbarrow, Lancashire, England, and attended the College of Commerce in Bremen, Germany.

He ran the small hotel in St Martins Lane called the St Martins Hotel ; it was managed by Elizabeth Kissick-Jones, formerly Hartnell, who was the aunt of his wife Nannette.

On 10 January 1953 he married Jane McNeill, a leading fashion model for Norman Hartnell, at a ceremony at St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh attended by the Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh, and most of the royal family.

Hartnell acquired a clientele of young women and their mothers intent on fashionable originality in dress design for a busy social life centred on the London Season.

In 1989 Bohan left Dior, before joining for the house of Norman Hartnell in London, where he worked for the label until 1992.

Lloyd later stated that Hartnell had approved of the choice, saying, " There's only one man in England who can take over, and that's Patrick Troughton ".

The story is set on the North-Eastern coast of England in late summer, 1066 and sees Steven Taylor ( Peter Purves ) become a companion to the First Doctor ( William Hartnell ) after having stumbled into the TARDIS during the events of the previous serial, The Chase.

Most of these novelisations contained minimal amounts of original material and were ( usually ) adapted closely from the shooting scripts, with the intent of the books being souvenirs of previously aired shows in the pre-VCR era ; the decision by the BBC to delete many episodes from the Hartnell, Troughton, and Pertwee eras resulted in many of these books becoming the only way for these " lost " adventures to be experienced prior to the release of soundtracks for those episodes and / or recovery of lost episodes ( the Pertwee era, in particular, has been rendered intact since the early 1990s, and several Hartnell and Troughton stories are once again complete ).

* The only 1960s Doctor Who episodes not to undergo the VidFIRE process on technical grounds are Part Three of Planet of Giants-" Crisis ", Part One of The Crusade-" The Lion " and parts 1-4 of The Time Meddler ; all starring William Hartnell.

In 1991, " The Wheel of Fortune ", then the only episode known extant, was released on VHS as part of The Hartnell Years ( BBCV 4608 ), presented by Seventh Doctor, Sylvester McCoy, with McCoy giving a brief're-cap ' of events before and after the segment, with additional information concerning its ' lost ' companions.

With the arrival of a younger Doctor and changing tastes, the Second Doctor's tenure was characterised by a faster pace and a preference toward " monster of the week "- style horror stories, whilst the purely historical adventures that were a recurring feature of the Hartnell era ceased with The Highlanders, the only Troughton-era entry in that genre.

In the 1999 – 2000 season, Hartnell was not only the captain of the Raiders, but he led the team with 82 points and was named team MVP.

Hartnell himself struggled at the beginning of the following season with only 2 points in his first 7 games, but would heat up after being placed on a line with Jaromir Jagr and Claude Giroux.

As of 2012, he is the only script editor from the William Hartnell era still living and, together with Glyn Jones, one of only two writers to have contributed to that period of Doctor Who still alive.

Jones is the earliest surviving credited writer of the series and one of only two living writers from the Hartnell era of the programme, the other being Donald Tosh.

He is also one of only three directors ( the others being Douglas Camfield and Lennie Mayne ) who directed all of the first four actors to play the Doctor, William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker.

The population of this relatively isolated area ( only traversed by the El Camino Real ), as recorded by William Edward Petty Hartnell during his inspection of the mission, was 416 in 1839.

Hartnell never discovered the identity of his father ( whose particulars were left blank on the birth certificate ) despite efforts to trace him.

Through a boys ' boxing club, Hartnell met the art collector Hugh Blaker, who would become his unofficial guardian and arrange for him initially to train as a jockey ( horses were his first love ) and helped him enter the Italia Conti Academy.

Theatre being a passion of Hugh Blaker, he paid for Hartnell to receive some ' polish ' at the Imperial Service College, though Hartnell found the strictures too much and ran away.

Hartnell entered the theatre in 1925 working under Frank Benson as a general stagehand.

Coward berated Hartnell in front of cast and crew for his unprofessionalism, made him personally apologise to everyone and then sacked him.

He played the Doctor for five seasons from early 1970 to mid-1974, at the time the longest stint of any of the actors who played the part, surpassing predecessors William Hartnell's and Patrick Troughton's three years each in the role, although due to shortened broadcast seasons, he appeared in fewer episodes than Hartnell.

In 1966, Doctor Who producer Innes Lloyd decided to replace William Hartnell in the series ' lead role.

The continued survival of the show depended on audiences accepting another actor in the role, despite the bold decision that the replacement would not be a Hartnell lookalike or soundalike.

Hartnell found 2, 208 cattle, 1, 670 sheep, 799 horses, 35 mules and 65 goats.
