Peter Cregeen (born 28 January 1940 in London, England) is a British television director, producer and executive. He is possibly best known for being the original director of ITV's successful police drama, The Bill, and his substantial contribution to the serial thereafter. Cregeen acted as “Head of Series” for the BBC between 1989 and 1993, and is well known for cancelling the BBC's science fiction programme Doctor Who after its 26th series and several years of poor viewing figures.
Served as the Head of Series, BBC Drama (1989 - 1993). In this capacity he cancelled the original series of Doctor Who (1963), not, as often incorrectly stated, Michael Grade, who had left the BBC two years earlier.
