TV's Roger Delgado, who played Dr. Who's sinister enemy The Master, has been killed in a car crash in Turkey. He was 53.

With his black pointed heard and dark menacing eyes the actor was always cast as a villain and : he loved", the role.

For, three years he starred as the doctor's great rival, the evil genius who always, just escaped justice in the [[broadwcast:Frontier in Space|final episode]].

The last time viewers saw him was in March disappearing into space with the Daleks.

He was in Turkey making a French TV film in which for the first time he was cast in a comedy role.

He was being driven to the film location when the car overturned at a sharp corner. Another passenger was, also killed.

In London last night, actor Jon Pertwee, TV's Dr. Who, said: "Roger was my closest friend for 20 years. He was an exceptional man, the very opposite of the parts he played on the screen."
