Patrick Troughton

Patrick Troughton (1920 - 1987)
==Film Deaths==
*Hamlet (1948) [Player King]: "Dies" in a play-within-the-play scene when another actor pours poison in his ear, while Laurence Olivier watches Basil Sydney's reaction.
*King Lear (1948) [Edmund]: Presumably stabbed to death in a swordfight with Robert Harris. (I haven't seen this version myself, but I know the basic storyline of the play.)
*Treasure Island (1950) [Roach]: Stabbed to death by Denis O'Dea.
*The Black Knight (1954) [King Mark]: Stabbed to death by his own assassin (Bill Brandon) when he goes to kill Patricia Medina in her bed, only for a bound and unconscious Patrick to have been put in her place by Anthony Bushell's men.
*Richard III (1955) [Sir John Tyrrell]: Stabbed to death during the battle between Laurence Olivier's men and the opposing soldiers.
*Phantom of the Opera (1962) [Rat Catcher]: Stabbed in the eye (vertically taking his eye-out) by Ian Wilson.
*The Viking Queen (1967) [Tristram]: Stabbed in the shoulder when Andrew Keir throws a knife at him; he dies from a combination of the wound and exhaustion after traveling a great distance to warn his son.
*Scars of Dracula (1970) [Klove]: Thrown off a balcony by Christopher Lee, where he falls from a cliff, as his punishment for attempting to help Dennis Waterman and Jenny Hanley to fight Christopher.
*The Omen (1976) [Father Brennan]: Impaled by a lightning rod on the roof of a church when lightning strikes the rod as it detaches from the roof, striking him in its path.
==Television Deaths==
*Maigret: Raise Your Right Hand (1961) [Gaston Meurant]: Shoots himself in the chest when caught by the police after he has shot Frank Ellement, his wife's lover.
*Doctor Who: The Enemy of the World (1968) [The Second Doctor/Ramon Salamander]: Playing a dual role, 'Salamander' is killed when he falls out the TARDIS after it is abruptly activated during a struggle with the real 'Doctor' (who survives, obviously)
*Doctor Who: The War Games (1969) [The Second Doctor]: Forcibly "regenerated" and transformed into Jon Pertwee by the council of Time Lords. (Not really a "death" scene, but since I've listed the other Doctors' "regeneration" scenes as constituting the "death" of their incarnations, it's only fair to include this one as well.)
*Survivors: Parasites (1976) [John Millen]: Stabbed in the back (off-screen) by Kevin McNally and Brian Grellis when they steal his houseboat; his body is seen when Delia Paton discovers it.
*Space: 1999: The Dorcons (1977) [Archon]: Murdered by Gerry Sundquist while attempting to have Catherine Schell’s "brain stem" transferred into his body through some advanced, unknown-to-humanity technology. Gerry tampers with the controls and deliberately uses the process to kill Patrick. Patrick pleads for his life as Gerry taunts him. Afterwards, his lifeless body is seen laying motionless on the “operating table” and it’s later vaporized when their space ship explodes.
*Inspector Morse: The Dead Of Jericho (1987) [George Jackson]: Killed offscreen by Richard Durden. The dialogue reveals he had had his head smashed against his bedpost.
