Patrick was taken to a nearby hospital, where doctors fought to save him.

He was the BBC's second Dr Who, playing the Time Lord from 1966 to 1969.

Dr Who producer John Turner said: "The profession is deprived of one of its true professionals.

"He was an actor of tremendous integrity with a natural sense of fun "

Two of his children. actors Michael and David, have appeared in the Dr Who series.
