Tim Dane Reid may be known more as the Space Zombie in Peter Capaldi’s final season of Doctor Who in the episode ‘Oxygen’ but Tim’s ‘Whostory’ also extends back through Tennant’s and Smith’s seasons, and if you look closely, Tim can be found in many episodes under different Guises and Monsters having worked on the show for 15 years in 25 different Episodes...

As a Doctor Who Monster, Tim has enjoyed many roles, favourites being the Daleks, Monster Monks, the Space Zombie and he has the enviable title of being ‘The Spoonhead’ in Smith’s episode ‘The Bells of Saint John’, something Tim still laughs about to this day due to the name of the monster, something he thought was a joke when he was given the script, but Spoonhead was indeed the name of his very own Monster Character !

One of Tim’s favourite Who projects was performing on the Doctor Who Symphonic Tour at many different Arenas with a 100 piece Choir & Orchestra. Tim performed as different Monsters throughout the event, scaring old and young alike in various Monster Guises.

A highlight of Tim’s Whostory was being immortalised as a Dr Who figurine as the Space Zombie. A Monster role that was one of the hardest he had to perform as he couldn’t see or breathe very well through the prosthetic on his face during the filming, but certainly one of the most rewarding and he fondly remembers working with Peter, Pearl & Matt over weeks of intense filming.
And of course the classic monsters are always fun, Tim relishes the fun as a Dalek operator and ‘Dalek Wrangler’ !

Tim’s acting career has seen him working on many other UK Television shows, favourites being ‘Sir Tim’ a Knight in BBC’s Merlin and Crime Drama Broadchurch as Police Officer where he not only worked with David Tennant, but of course worked with Jodie Whittaker.

Besides working in front of the camera, Tim is also responsible for Casting the actors and supporting artistes in Television shows and works with UK Casting Team ‘Phoenix’ who are responsible for casting the Doctor Who Monsters, Supporting artistes and small roles in Dr Who, a job that Tim finds very rewarding working with many Directors helping to also cast other great shows such as ‘Casualty’, ‘Sherlock’, ‘Poldark’, ‘Atlantis’, ‘Broadchurch’ and many more.

As well as acting, Tim also works behind the camera as a Director and in 2022 has won many awards for his films at Film Festivals around the world including Best Director and Best short film at the July 2022 Cannes World Film Festival.

Tim is very much looking forward to travelling around the world to meet the Who Family and share his stories, exclusive behind the scenes photos, videos and much more !
