- Dinsdale Landen, Doctor Who #154: The Curse of Fenric, TV, 1989. McCallum, Edward Hardwicke and Martin Jarvis were also discussed for Dr Judson - based on the WWII code-breaker, Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch in the 2014 film, The Imitation Game). Ian Briggs scripted Judson as gay as Turing, but Aunty over-ruled characters discussing their sexuality in a family hour show.
- Jim Byrnes, Highlander, TV, 1993-1998. Not only did the actors’ names change - from McCallum and Michael York to the unknown Byrnes from Sat Louis - so did the character from Ian to Joe Dawson. Hey, how many US Ians do ya know?McCallum, the one time Man From UNCLE, 1964-19687, was too busy with his great comeback - as the Chief NCIS Medical Officer in 354 episodes of NICS, during 1993-2018. His Dr Donald Mallard was nicknamed “Ducky.” What else?
