André Winterton

This was my second job in television and as such was quite a small role. I was twenty five at the time and oddly enough, I was offered the role, without auditioning, as I was seen by Ron Jones and John Nathan Turner in the West End of London, playing a leading role (Israel Hands) in the Mermaid Theatre's production of 'Treasure Island' in December 1981 and January 1982, alongside Tom Baker, the former Dr Who! Although probably the smallest part of my career, I still receive requests for autographs and appear in numerous web sites devoted to both Dr Who and science fiction in general, with another 'cult' credit being Angelo Pordonone in the BBC series Star Cops.
