20 Doctor Who Actors Who Have Been In Star Wars (& 2 Who Will Be)
8. Jeremy Bulloch
Bulloch is another actor lucky enough to have had multiple role in both franchises. Most lists point out his role as the bounty hunter Boba Fett in the original Star Wars trilogy and even go on to mention his return in the prequels as Captain Colton in 2005s Revenge of the Sith (he's flying the Correlian corvette that resembles the Tantive IV, with Obi-Wan sat on one side and Bail Organa and Yoda sat on the other). However, what's almost always forgotten is that Bulloch already got to show his face in a Star Wars film before playing Colton - as the Imperial officer, Lt. Sheckil, in The Empire Strikes Back (he's the guy in charge of escorting Princess Leia, Chewbacca, and C-3PO through the corridors of Cloud City). Bulloch can also proudly recount two roles in classic Doctor Who. He played Tor, a Xeron rebel, in the William Hartnell yawn-fest The Space Museum (possibly the dullest adventure ever made in Doctor Who's long history), and later returned as Hal the Archer in the far superior The Time Warrior, helping Jon Pertwees Third Doctor battle the Sontarans in their very first story.

Also, look for his contribution on Blake's 7 to "You and Who Else", a charity anthology to be released later this year.
