Howard Attfield

Howard Attfield (27 November 1946-31 October 2007) played Geoff Noble in TV: The Runaway Bride. He was signed to reprise the role during Series 4, but died early in production of the season after filming several scenes for TV: Partners in Crime.

His completed scenes were refilmed with Bernard Cribbins playing a different character, Wilfred Mott. The footage was later included on the DVD release of Series 4. A line of dialogue referencing Geoff Noble in TV: The End of Time, Part Two was included as a tribute to Attfield.
