  • James (The Green Death)
rdfs:comment
  • James's narrative purpose in the story The Green Death came about after Tony Adams, the actor playing Elgin, was taken seriously ill with peritonitis the day before studio recording of episode five and had to be rushed to hospital for an emergency operation. Because Adams could no longer continue, a hasty rewrite of the script was required. James, as played by Roy Skelton, was drafted to fulfill the duties of Adams's character, and as such, Elgin was abruptly dropped from the story and presumed to survive at the end (Jocelyn Stevens tells the Third Doctor to evacuate his employees from Global Chemicals before he makes BOSS overload, logically including Elgin), while James would instead be killed.
