Gerald Flood

Gerald Flood (born on 21 April 1927 Portsmouth, Hampshire; died on 12 April 1989) played King John and voiced Kamelion in DW: The King's Demons. Although technical problems with the Kamelion robotic prop made it impossible for Gerald Flood to appear regularly on Doctor Who as a voice actor for Kamelion, he did reprise the role in DW: Planet of Fire and in a cameo in DW: The Caves of Androzani.

Gerald Flood had been the star of the Pathfinders serials, Sydney Newman and Malcolm Hulke's previous attempt at a family-oriented science-fiction show. He also played Sir Richard Flashman in the BBC's popular 1971 television serial "Tom Brown's Schooldays". He died from a heart attack shortly before his 62nd birthday.
