Clive Merrison:
Of rather cadaverous and ascetic demeanour, he
has played a succession of doctors, politicians, courtiers, teachers and
other vaguely sinister and authoritarian parts in 'Crown Court', 'Yes
Prime Minister', 'Doctor Who' (1967 & 1987), 'The Borgias' and
'Reilly, Ace Of Spies'. He is also the voice of the BBC's radio
incarnation of Sherlock Holmes* (1989-98) and played Fenelon-Barnes in
'The English Patient' (1996) and the headmaster in 'The History Boys'
(2006).
*Surely wasted on radio...
