Sarah Sutton

Sarah Sutton (born 12 December 1961) played Nyssa in Doctor Who from The Keeper of Traken to Terminus. She also made a cameo appearance as Nyssa in The Caves of Androzani and later reprised the role in the thirtieth anniversary special Dimensions in Time.

Nyssa was a companion of Tom Baker and Peter Davison's Doctors from 1981 to 1983. Although she left full-time acting after her time as Nyssa, Sutton has reprised this role in several of the Big Finish Productions Doctor Who audio dramas and played an unrelated role in a Doctor Who universe audio drama by BBV Productions.

She has appeared in various other television programmes including Alice Through the Looking Glass (1974) as Alice (a role which Deborah Watling also played) and The Moon Stallion (1978), written by Doctor Who writer Brian Hayles, as Diana Purwell, in which she managed the difficult task of playing a blind girl throughout the entire serial. She also appeared in The Crucible (1980) as Susannah Walcott.
