Kevin Manser (16 February 1929 - 21 December 2001) was an Australian actor best known for his career as a Dalek operator in the early seasons of Doctor Who. He was born in Adelaide and worked for South Australian Engineering and Water Supply until 1957, when he emigrated to London to work as a stage manager, which led to later work as a theatrical and television actor. In 1969 he returned to Australia and continued to play small parts on television and became involved with Doctor Who conventions. He wrote his autobiography, the Memoirs of a Dalek, in 2001, after being diagnosed with the cancer which eventually led to his demise.
