Doctor Who and Wombles actor Bernard Cribbins has died aged 93, his family has confirmed.
During a career that spanned seven decades, Cribbins narrated the 1970s children's programme The Wombles.
He also played Dr Who's companion Tom Campbell in the 1966 film Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150, returning 41 years later in the revived series.
He played Wilfred Mott, Catherine Tate's grandad in Doctor Who from 2007 to 2010.
At the age of nearly 90, he published an autobiography looking back on his years in show business in 2018. Its title was Bernard Who? 75 Years Of Doing Absolutely Everything - and its advice was simple.
"Do your best and be grateful for every single job".
