You starred in eight episodes of Doctor who.
You worked with Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker too.
But sadly you died on your birthday.
England lost a great actor when you passed away.

You were only forty-two when you died.
You were talented, that can't be denied.
You made those Doctor who episodes more enjoyable.
You were a great man and that was pretty cool.

It's sad to know that your life wasn't long.
When you died, it was wrong.
You starred as Harry Sullivan and you were perfect for the part.
Your death broke many fans hearts.
