{"product_id":"martin-jarvis-15592","title":"Martin Jarvis - 15592","description":"Distinguished English actor, who has enjoyed an enormously varied career.\n\nOn BBC radio he is probably best known for his long series of readings of Richmal Crompton's Just William stories and his narration of the Billy Bunter stories, by Frank Richards. His film work, though infrequent, has included a Hammer Horror (Taste the Blood of Dracula, 1970) and Titanic (1997).\n\nThe bulk of Jarvis's appearances have been on television, including a stint as Jolyon Forsyte in The Forsyte Saga (1967), the lead in a BBC serialisation of Nicholas Nickleby (1968), Uriah Heep in the 1974 BBC version of David Copperfield and the male lead in the sitcom Rings On Their Fingers (1978-80) with Diane Keen.\n\nOddly enough, he is mainly collected for his appearances in Doctor Who. He made his very first television appearance in the series in 1965, playing a giant butterfly in \"The Web Planet\". He went on to make other guest appearances, including the Butler\/Voice in Reminder Room in 1974's Invasion of the Dinosaurs and the beleaguered governor of the planet Varos in Vengeance on Varos in 1985.\n\nThis is a very fine black and white BBC publicity photograph (5.25\" x 3.5\") for Jarvis's appearance in the title role of their 1968 serialisation of Nicholas Nickleby, nicely signed in blue fountain pen ink across the lower white panel. In excellent condition.","brand":"Clickautographs","offers":[{"title":"1colour \/ 1size \/ Authentic","offer_id":57853636051276,"sku":"317","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1067\/9222\/3052\/files\/martin_jarvis_JS.jpg?v=1785520224","url":"https:\/\/midsussexcollectibles.com\/en-gb\/products\/martin-jarvis-15592","provider":"Mid Sussex Collectibles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
