It's possible that without my renewed interest in 'Doctor Who', the passing of John Woodnutt might have escaped my notice. And with it, several items from his resume might have gone undetected as well; roles which I might track down one day to explore further....

OF TOOBWORLD NOTE
Out Of The Unknown: The Little Black Bag (1969) (TV) .... Kelland
This was remade as a segment of 'Night Gallery' featuring Burgess Meredith, Chill Wills, and George Furth.
"The Boy From Space" (1971) TV Series .... The Thin Space Man
"Look and Read" playing "Thin Space-man" in episode: "Boy From Space, The: Part 1 - The Meteorite" (episode # 3.1) 21 September 1971
Not being familiar with this series, I don't know if 'The Boy From Space' was launched from 'Look And Read', or if the entire series aired under that umbrella title.
"The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" playing "Mr. Merryweather" in episode: "The Red-Headed League" (episode # 2.5) 22 September 1985
"Sherlock Holmes" playing "Pawnbroker" in episode: "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax" (episode # 1.12) 8 May 1965
"Sherlock Holmes" playing "Station Master" in episode: "The Bruce-Partington Plans" (episode # 1.9) 17 April 1965
Mr. Woodnutt played characters in stories about the Sherlock Holmes of two dimensions.
The 1985 version starred Jeremy Brett and is considered by this Caretaker as being the Sherlock Holmes of Earth Prime-Time. Douglas Wilmer played the role twenty years earlier.
So few episodes separate Mr. Woodnutt's appearances in the 1965 version that I'm almost tempted to speculate the Station Master moonlighted as a pawnbroker. But costuming and make-up could go a long way toward making them distinct characters.
