EVERY Actor Who Played Multiple Roles in Doctor Who

[@MuchWhittering]

If I had a nickel for every time a princess looked like Romana, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.

[@Pokemaniac_101]

I never realized just _how many_ classic cameos there are in new who

[@madisonnai]

someone told me the other week that the fandom would flip if they brought back olivia coleman in a new role and i just had to be like bruh, ty for this video 😂

[@TheLoneTimelordOffical]

Guys I loved when David Tennant played “The Doctor” not the other doctors, just the one the doctor.Not the one your thinking of

[@shacharraz9129]

Aha, you must mean the Meta Crisis Doctor

[@UranusMcVitieFish-yd7oq]

He also played an armed security guard in Scream of the Shalka but the video maker appears to have missed that.

[@2small4theMall]

@UranusMcVitieFish-yd7oq it says right at the start that they didn't include voice roles

[@db7541]

7:55 Depending on what her role is in the season 40 finale, Susan Twist may either gain a further 7 (or more) entries onto this list or disappear from it entirely…

[@djdee6386]

Season 40? Is that number classic who + NuWho?

[@db7541]

It is :)

[@tulliusexmisc2191]

Yes, it's very easy to date this video by the number of Twists.

[@BritishTrainspotting]

Its pretty cool how many classic who actors came back in NuWho! I wonder if we'll see any more NuWho actors in NeoWho.

[@CJFS00s]

I think a lot of it with Classic Who was cause it wasn’t repeated as much as it is now, they could get away with re-using actors!

[@zvimur]

Does Big Finish count? Miriam Margolyes (voice of the Meep) had a short bit in an "Eighth Doctor Adventure"

[@sdball01]

Great work. Must have taken a while so feel a bit bad at saying this: 05:23 should read Mina Anwar (rather than Yasmin Bannerman). Anyway, very enjoyable (and didn't realise certain actors had reappeared). 🙂👍

[@UranusMcVitieFish-yd7oq]

Except the maker has missed out at least three actors and David Tennant's Shalka cameo (if Torchwood is canon then so is the 2003 9th Doctor)

[@coopercane500]

You forgot Kevin Stoney (Mavic Chen in Dalek's Master Plan & Tobias Vaughn in The Invasion).

[@Snakatorium]

He was also in Revenge of the Cybermen!

[@reubenmanzo2054]

And Edward Burnham (Professor Watkins in 'The Invasion' & Professor Kettlewell in 'Robot').

[@ineedausername124]

I thought I just missed him

[@laurelbradsher3596]

David Tennant also played a bunch of doctor who big finish characters before he was cast as the doctor

[@UranusMcVitieFish-yd7oq]

And a good 15 years before he starred in the Russian sub/Ice Warrior episode on TV David Warner played an Alternative timeline Doctor in an early Big Finish.

[@McKayDarkwood]

Interesting list. I knew most of them - less so the actors who turned up in Torchwood and the SJAs. I did notice you showed a clip of Sabetha (Catherine Schofield) from The Keys Of Marinus in place of Fiona Walker's Kala, but given there have been so many actors to play multiple parts that's not much of a mistake to make.

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

Adeola and Martha are canonically cousins. Also, I’m fairly certain that the in-universe reason the Master and Consul Tremas looked identical is that the Master stole Tremas’ body. And I know you specifically said you weren’t including voice roles, but I feel it should’ve noted that Richard E. Grant also played the Doctor in the 2003 animated _Scream of the Shalka._

[@christiansborledegg]

your videos are so good!! 😭😭

[@cybernovadw5124]

Have Not included clones (questions every sontaran put on there..)

[@robalexander8065]

Tom Baker also played Meglos.

[@DrWhoFanJ]

Not including doubles.

[@tulliusexmisc2191]

@@DrWhoFanJ To be precise, Meglos was a shapechanger, not a double. But I think we should count Xoanon. I would argue time lords are shapechangers too, so it doesn't count if they copy the face of someone they have met earlier in their own timeline, such as Princess Astra, Commander Maxill or Caecilius. And if we are going to count Tremas and his anagram as two different people, then we have to include all the other cases of possession, bodyswap and radical change of personality. For example Rose/Cassandra, Donna/Doctor-Donna, Yana/Master, Toberman/CyberToberman, all the impossible girls, maybe even Tommy before and after the Metebelis crystal.

[@SentaiWho]

You forgot Sacha Dhawan who played the master and Waris Hussein in An Adventure in Space and Time

[@Reginald425]

An adventure across space and time is about Doctor Who, but it isn’t really Doctor Who.

[@SentaiWho]

@@Reginald425it’s wider canon since the shows history technically exists in the Whoniverse

[@simonstott2900]

Great work!!!! Loved the soundtrack perfect viewing

[@magnu75]

Spotted an error (which is easy to make with such a massive piece of editing!), Yasmin Bannerman's name appears twice, where on the second occasion it should read Mina Anwar.

[@BritishTrainspotting]

17:01 Richard E Grant also voiced the shalka doctor, which should go here as its in the wider canon section anyway

[@UranusMcVitieFish-yd7oq]

And of course David Tennant has a minor role in Shalka as well.

[@Reginald425]

3:24 Still doing the same pose

[@yeetusbeteetus6471]

Imagine thats the explanation for doppelgangers. its not you, its just The Doctor's new face

[@JohnSmith-hh6hg]

Its funny that Romana controlled to look like Princess Astra after the regenaration

[@Tardis2004-y6o]

2:23 he also played that live action superintendent in the Amazing World Of Gumball.

[@lbricks7631]

Dennis Chinnery appeared in (debatably) the best and worst stories of the classic series as Gharman and Sylvest. Holy whiplash.

[@digitaldeathsquid3448]

I know lots of people have pointed out 05:23 as Mina Anwar, but may I also point out 16:23? Unless I've missed something, that actor's name is Jo Joyner Also, Stephen Thorne had one other role in Classic Who I know of (unless that's just filed under "voice of") - as Omega in The Three Doctors

[@avocadoambassador]

Thos video is extremely interesting, well done!

[@doctorwhoproductions834]

Little video idea, every time a real Police Box has a appeared in Doctor Who, well not real real but intended to be real, like Delta and The Banner men and Logopolis

[@Benjiesbeenbetter.]

A real was supposed to appear in Logopolis. The last TARDIS style one stood beside the Barnett bypass but was demolished shortly before the the story went into production.

[@killianobrien2007]

I wonder would that brief moment in Father's day count

[@catlover0160]

Really enjoyed this but, one complaint-ish… the photos and names flicked through very quickly, I had to keep pausing so I could read everything 🇬🇧

[@tulliusexmisc2191]

You can play it at half speed. Of course, that also makes Doctor In Distress twice as long and twice as distressed, which may or may not be what you want.

[@julianaylor4351]

Double Dalek connection Roy Skelton did Dalek voices ( as well as Captain Pugwash ) and Terry Nation the writer who is the inventor of the Daleks, wrote Blake's Seven, which starred Paul Darrow in its main cast.

[@LibertyBridgeProductions]

How we need the Pat Gromon video 😂

[@tomwhale7334]

Alexander Armstrong also voiced Mr. Smith!

[@LibertyBridgeProductions]

Were all of Julian Bleaches roles from the same year 😂

[@kyrauniversal]

Can we PLEASE have a compilation of all the times The Doctor has mentioned The TARDIS in a kind fashion? Like the Fourth Doctor's exchange. Four: "C'mon old girl. There's enough millennia left in you yet." Romana: "Oh. Thank you, Doctor." Four: "Not you. The TARDIS."

[@cybernovadw5124]

Stephen Thorne, I know his face was slightly obscures playing Omega but he took his Helmet off so we could see it in the mirror! Only it was missing so.... they tried!

[@tulliusexmisc2191]

You just reminded me Peter Davison also played Omega.

[@robirvin5060]

2:55 "Smith and Jopes"

[@julianaylor4351]

Interesting Gerry Anderson connection here, Wanda Ventham ( Benedict Cumberbatch's mother...Mark Gatiss/ Steven Moffat connection with Sherlock ) starred in UFO and Prentis Hancock, starred in Space: 1999.

[@DoctorJohnSmith9]

I think you could have included Sacha Dawan as Warris Hussein from "An Adventure in Time and Space" and as O/The Master. Killer soundtrack for this video, by the way!

[@chrispy3369]

Holy shit I never realized Jago was kinda in New Who.

[@zd1mv]

I know you said "no people in suits" but I feel like David Banks should count because he plays 4 very different Cybermen
