I met Jon once at a Doctor Who convention and we were chatting and was interrupted by Sylvester McCoy who walked over. Sylvester then sprung into a Worzel Gummidge voice and the two of them started to argue with each other both playing Worzel.
🪦R.I.P William Hartnell , Patrick Troughton & jon Pertwee , the Greatest Trio of Doctor Who ever , they maybe gone but they will never be forgotten😀😀..
He was such a funny man in real life, quite a contrast to his serious take on the Doctor. The only Doctor Who I have met to date (although this was when I was 5 years old and he was dressed as Worzel at the time).
I was going to say that I bumped into Jon Pertwee but the fact is that he bumped into me at Paddington Station. After an apology, I just said to him. "The Navy Lark - I love it". He looked down on me beaming. "Really - What do you like about it". I told him that I loved the characters and that I had three favourites that I always listened out for. Ramona Povey, and his wonderful portrayals of Weatherby and Burwasher. Jon thanked me with his re[ly as Weatherby which had me in tears of laughter. He thanked me and said he had to move on. An unforgettable man and to me just a great a gentleman as seen in these clips.
Wonderful to see Jon and Barbara and of course, Roland, by far the best thing about TV-am - aside from the theme tune which caused a shiver up my spine when I heard it.... a flashback to being a kid again...
Hardly, Pertwee was a fine Doctor and didn't don a syrup. Connery was an appalling Bond and balanced a dead rodent on his head for his entire duration.
I saw a 3 image cartoon of John, the 1st had the Dr in Betsy driving down the road the 2nd had worse in the field turning his head the 3rd had a lot of scarecrows being evil to the Dr.
Remember a DW convention where at his autograph table, if I remember correctly he was only signing purchased photographs. Some folks moaning. Did they not realise he could had been between work and this was his bread & butter. No problem for me. Met him and he didn't let me down. Sometimes it is alright to meet your heroes. When I said the photograph was to be signed for then partner, he enquired DW fan? I replied no Worzel' instantly 'Ooo' er she is, is she' or some other Worzel' expression. Delightful. Smiles all around. He enjoyed the adulation and so he should' worthy of it. He was a lovely gentleman.
SJKPJR007 he saw us after the show when he was clearly very worn out and he was gracious and patient with a bunch of awe-struck kids who didn’t even know what to say to him. Haha. A genuinely lovely man who is greatly missed.
@@Problembeing Thank you for taking the time to reply. I was due to see him in that stage play when it came to Newcastle. I was so excited! Sadly, he became unwell and had to pull out for a spell by the time the show reached the North East. Luckily, Colin Baker stepped in. It wasn't quite the same but I was still delighted because I was one of the few who really loved Colin's Doctor. However, it was Jon Pertwee that was 'my' Doctor, if you know what I mean. Yes, very much missed. Gone but not forgotten.
SJKPJR007 it was my pleasure to talk to a true Whovian :) My school was worth all the bullying because it had the best school DW club in the country, we had regular visits from cast, crew, production and even JNT himself, and we went to the dress rehearsal of Ghostlight as well as getting to see Jon Pertwee premier with reprising his role as undeniably one of the greatest incarnations of The Doctor (though Tom was ‘my’ Doctor, which I think I can be forgiven as having as my first choice), it was my history teacher who ran the club that introduced us to Pertwee’s incredible Doctor on VHS copies of copies (some still in B&W) long before official release, some of which had been missing episodes at the time. That was my true education. Pertwee will always be right up there with Tom for me, there’s not much to separate their beguiling charms and sophistication. I am truly sorry you didn’t get to see him, but I’m sure Colin was a real treat nonetheless and I hope you still enjoyed the rather whacky staging :D I used to live down the road from Wimbledon Theatre and one day I was walking home past the open gates to the backstage area and they had struck the set and there was a battered and what looked to be abandoned TARDIS prop... My god, the temptation to drag it home was overwhelming, but I didn’t as it would probably have broken to bits by the time I got it down the road, but you know what, I regret not trying!
@@Problembeing Thank you so much for the "true whovian" accolade. Coming from a clear devotee such as yourself that means a lot. I'm so sorry to hear your school days had such challenges for you. However, I am relieved you at least had what sounds an utterly incredible network of escape from those trials and tribulations. I love all the classic Doctor's. Though I have to confess Tom Baker did take some getting used after the very straight and traditional hero portrayal by Jon. And when he did his cameo in 'The Day of the Doctor' I was in bits. Silly fool that I am. Take care, stay safe and "Who knows (nose), eh?"
I would have loved to have met him. I love Dr Who & I remember watching Worzel a few times. It wasn’t till years later I realized Worzel was the 3rd Dr.
From the comment about Airwolf "starting but having been on for two weeks", the broadcast date is most likely Friday 2nd November 1984 as that appears to be the UK broadcast date of the first episode after the two part pilot in most ITV regions.
A fine actor who was in many films and dramas over the decades, a great story teller of the the real and not so real, witty and as intellectually sharp as a razor, greatly missed .
Great Pertwee footage. Shame about the classic comics segment with Dennis Gifford is missing, would have liked to seen and heard Jon's reactions and thoughts to publications such as Radio Fun, Film Fun and the Eagle (Dan Dare).
From the clip shown with Joan Sims, I was put in mind of Geoffrey Rush in the Pirates films. Possibly an influence for Geoffrey's performance? Tom Baker was my Dr. Who, but Jon Pertwee will always be my Worzel.
sam baked Imagine jon squirtwee eating puusssy with that massive tongue of his... No doubt the old dilettante fart was too much of a prude to make good use of this enormous appendage.

Jon Pertwee in fine form, as ever. What a star. Brilliant as Worzel and will always be my Doctor! Long live King Jon!
I loved Jon Pertwee ❤
He was my Doctor and I cherish him.
Such a lovely man. I miss Jon.
Missed but never forgotten. He will always be my Doctor. Long live King Jon!
We all miss both Jon and Babs. R.I.P.
My Dr Who...wounderful wounderful Memories....RIP you wounderful man, and BABS looking gorgeous....so genuine RIP
Jon was a good actor and comedian. A great Doctor Who. I was fortunate to had met him at the Albert Docks in Liverpool 25 years ago. Lovely man.
I met Jon once at a Doctor Who convention and we were chatting and was interrupted by Sylvester McCoy who walked over. Sylvester then sprung into a Worzel Gummidge voice and the two of them started to argue with each other both playing Worzel.
That must have been fun to watch... ;-)
That's amazing, how wonderful. McCoy would have been a great guest character in WG.

He had time for his fans so I gather from interviews and stories like these. ❤
I think Jon needs a cup of tea and a slice of cake
Jon Pertwee was the best Doctor from Doctor Who - second best was Patrick Troughton ....
Just hearing Pertwee’s voice takes me right back to my childhood, the first Doctor I remember.
Wonderful to see Jon and Barbara and of course, Roland, by far the best thing about TV-am - aside from the theme tune which caused a shiver up my spine when I heard it.... a flashback to being a kid again...
Is it me or does Roland sound and act like Stephen Lewis from On the Buses? That laugh!
@@monsieurdel Ha! ha!! Now you come to mention it.... "Oooohhh, that's made my day that has, Butler!"
The best Doctor ever. He is, to Doctor Who, what Sean Connery was to Bond.
Hardly, Pertwee was a fine Doctor and didn't don a syrup. Connery was an appalling Bond and balanced a dead rodent on his head for his entire duration.

I wholeheartedly agree. Long live King Jon!
Yep, right after Tom baker
@@stevedickson5853 Tom is tiresomely overhyped, and let his ego get the better of him during his time on the show.
@Minicle everyone to their own.
@stevedickson5853 they both were indeed so then too in my view as well of course.
Worzel would scare the life out of modern kids
He still makes me laugh. Best Doctor after Tom.
He was before Tom. *rimshot*
MaskedMan66 Agreed, before Tom
It could have meant that Pertwee is his best Doctor after Tom Baker, not that Pertwee came after Tom.
I raise you Pat Troughton.
Our local Harvester used to have a Worzel Gummidge statue near the entrance. Got stolen a couple of times ended up at nearby Bus stop Lol!
A slice of tea and a cup of cake old Worzel back in business and rest in peace Jon Pertwee.
TV-am - Good Morning Britain - Jon Pertwee & Barbara Windsor - Air Date 26th October 1984
Aww great morning show this was, the credits bring back memories of me getting ready for school,
A fine actor who was in many films and dramas over the decades, a great story teller of the the real and not so real, witty and as intellectually sharp as a razor, greatly missed .
@permaveg
That's not remotely true and you know it.
Great Pertwee footage. Shame about the classic comics segment with Dennis Gifford is missing, would have liked to seen and heard Jon's reactions and thoughts to publications such as Radio Fun, Film Fun and the Eagle (Dan Dare).
Its so great to see this again two great actors,Jon Pertwee and Barbara Windsor, such sad story Jon told us .
Ah yes worzel gummidge 👍👍... What a lovely guy, and oh my word look at Barbara!! RIP
tv from the past, i love it
From the clip shown with Joan Sims, I was put in mind of Geoffrey Rush in the Pirates films. Possibly an influence for Geoffrey's performance? Tom Baker was my Dr. Who, but Jon Pertwee will always be my Worzel.
Best Doctor
Legends together: Pertwee, Windsor and Roland.
What an amazing, magical and talented men.❤
Orchard Theatre in Dartford had just newly opened in 1983. Went there with school to see pantos and later other shows. Still going strong to this day
Jon, was great and Barbara when she was much younger and well.
Jon and Barbara look like the same person.
This was insightful watch into a very interesting man. I’d love to read his book 📚
Jon was like,,,,,,eating porridge on a cold frosty morning before school xxxxxxxx

he was so sweet
I wholeheartedly agree. Long live King Jon!
What a lovely man
Anne Diamond hot back then
Proper cute.
The brilliant Jon Pertwee
I'm so cool!
My favourite Doctor - Action man and Gentleman 👍🏻
Anne is looking wonderful.
Jon's story about HMS Hood must have been hard to carry.
Gosh Anne Diamond was gorgeous!
Happy days
Here stop muckin about! I love babs god bless her.
I’m guessing the American thing never got anywhere? But I do see that a New Zealand show WAS made 😮
"Like that ugly hat you're wearing." My brain: Ugly? This one could've been borrowed from Dame Hilda Bracket for all I know!! Stylish as hell!
