Jon Pertwee was a guest on Countdown. He was most famous for playing the eponymous character in Doctor Who, a feckless naval petty officer in The Navy Lark plus a scarecrow in Worzel Gummidge and could never be accused of lacking "range". He also hosted Whodunnit? and provided the voice of SuperTed's sidekick, Spotty.
On his solitary appearance, the conundrums of DALEKSNEC and THINWOUND were revealed as a homage to him.
Pertwee sadly died of a heart attack on 20 May 1996.
