    Kevin Stoney Dies.

    Kevin Stoney, the acclaimed actor who portrayed two of the greatest villains in the original series of Doctor Who, has died at the age of 86.

    Stoney first appeared in Doctor Who as Guardian of the Solar System Mavic Chen, confronting William Hartnell's Doctor in the 1965 story The Daleks' Master Plan.

    Three year's later, he returned to battle Patrick Troughton as Tobias Vaughn in the Cyberman epic The Invasion.

    Stoney's last contribution to Doctor Who came in 1975, playing the Vogan Tyrum in Revenge of the Cybermen.

    The actor was also well known for roles in such classic series as Blake's 7, I, Claudius and The Tomorrow People.

    I especially loved him in the Invasion.
    If anyone hasn't seen it (restored DVD version), I suggest you go out and get it.

    RIP

      Can't agree with this more...the animated "lost" episodes are a delight and fit in superbly..lets hope the beeb and cosgrove hall do more "missing episodes"....hope they do "The Tenth Planet".

        Tenth Planet Restoration would be great, but what would you do with that last episode ?

        There is surviving recorded off-air bad quality scenes (especially Hartnell's regeneration).

        Would you use these scenes, or animate them ?

        It's a tough call.

        It would almost be a crime to animate them, I think.

                  Going back to Kevin Stoney .....

                  Last night I was watching an episode of Space 1999 ......
                  Forgive me, but I forgot the title....
                  It was the one with the chick planet vs. another planet with Alpha caught in the middle.

                  Was the sleepy-eye guy general Kevin Stoney ?
                  Sure looked like him.

                    It was called "The Last Enemy" and it was indeed Kevin Stoney.

                          I don't mean to dis-respect the guy but can anyone tell me why his eyes always appeared closed when he was acting/speaking? Did he have a stroke or something?
