"Tom Baker has paid tribute to his former Doctor Who co-star Nicholas Courtney, who passed away yesterday at the age of 81. The actor wrote a message on his official website in memory of Courtney, who played The Brigadier on the BBC sci-fi show. &amp;quot;Of all the characters in Doctor Who there is no doubt that he was the most loved by the fans for his wonderful portrayal of the rather pompous Brigadier,&amp;quot; Baker said. &amp;quot;&amp;#039;Five rounds rapid&amp;#039; was the line we all loved, always addressed to Sergeant Benton. Nick&amp;#039;s close friends simply adored him.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;He was a wonderful companion and his friends would call each other or email to relate the latest little stories of a night out with the Brig... We shall miss him terribly.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
