Very sorry to hear of the passing of Space: 1999 star Prentis Hancock, who played Paul Morrow in the show’s first (and best) season. He also appeared as a guest star in several classic Doctor Who adventures—playing a reporter in Spearhead from Space, a Thal in Planet of the Daleks, Salamar in Planet of Evil, and the Shrieve Captain in The Ribos Operation.
For my money, though, Hancock’s best role was as the troubled Lt. Ian McDonald in Colditz—a great performance from a fine actor.
R.I.P.
