10 Star Wars Actors You Never Knew Were In Doctor Who

4. Garrick Hagon

Born in London and raised in Toronto, Garrick Hagon has had a long career as an actor on stage and screen. Performing for seven seasons in Richard III alongside fellow Star Wars alumni Sir Alec Guinness, he is an award winning thespian who has performed at the Royal National Theatre and on the West End. His voice can be heard in numerous video games, television shows, anime, audiobooks, and films. From Arthur Miller's All My Sons to Lupin the Third, his roles have been as varied as the mediums that have showcased his many talents. He is most known to fans for his small role as Luke Skywalker's childhood friend Biggs Darklighter, who, as Red Three, perished during the Battle of Yavin, giving Luke the time he needed to destroy the Death Star and win the battle. He is the only actor on this list to have had roles in not only Star Wars, but both classic and new Doctor Who stories! As the rebellious Ky in The Mutants, he vaporized the Marshal of Solos, giving the Solonians their independence, and as the undertaker, Abraham, in A Town Called Mercy he measured the Doctor for a coffin!

A writer in spirit, a baker by profession. Carl has been a comic shop impresario, comic book illustrator, record store clerk, electronic musician, late night radio DJ, club promoter, graphic designer, and other cool things you wish you could be. He mistakenly had purple dreadlocks once. For three years. Which made him way less cool. He doesn't actually know what the word impresario means, and is way too lazy to Google it. Carl is also an American, and for that he apologizes.
