Yes, he who was Catweazle - but also starred in "Adopted by a Stray", as the character Broadbent.

If you take a look at the wiki page about him, you'll see he had an astonishing career - a truly vast list of movies and TV.

Grew up watching Catweazle, loved it. Excellent as the Crowman in Wurzle Gummidge along side the late great John Pertwee.

He is in one of my top five films of all time The Pink Panther Strikes Again as Doctor Duval , Dreyfus's physician at the Institution. My sides ache every time from the opening scenes when Herbert Lom ends up in the pond to the end , it is probably one of a small number of films that reduces me to tears [of laughter]
