He was also the script editor on The Evil of the Daleks, The Abominable Snowmen and The Enemy of the World. One of Bryant's last contributions to Doctor Who was the casting in 1969 of Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor.During this time he was married to actress Shirley Cooklin but they eventually divorced.He later became a literary agent to writers and a casting agent to actors. One of his clients was Doctor Who writer Eric Pringle.Peter Bryant died in 2006, aged 82, after a year-long battle with cancer.
