Christopher Benjamin Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Christopher Benjamin was born on December 27, 1934 in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, England. He is an actor, known for The Plague Dogs (1982), Angel (2007) and The Black Velvet Gown (1991).
On the shortlist for the guest role of Prof Marcus Scarman in Doctor Who: Pyramids of Mars. Bernard Archard won the role.
2
Served in the Royal Air Force.
3
One of only 31 performers to have acted in both the 20th Century Doctor Who TV series and the 21st Century Doctor Who TV series.
4
Played the same character (Potter) in Secret Agent (1964) and The Prisoner (1967), both of which starred Patrick McGoohan. This lends credence to the belief that McGoohan's Danger Man (1960) and Secret Agent (1964) character, John Drake, is the same person as Number Six, the character he later portrayed in The Prisoner (1967) although McGoohan, who was also the co-creator, producer and frequent writer of the later series, claims that this was never his intention.
5
He was on the shortlist for "Toby" (played by Windsor Davies ) in Doctor Who (1963): The Evil of the Daleks.
6
He has performed with the Royal Shakespeare Company.
