Very sad news indeed. I remember Barry Morse from The Fugative when I
was a kid and the series had me on the edge of my seat every week. He
was great as Lt. Gerrard. Fantastic in Space 1999 as well, of course.
He will be sadly missed.

present. He bonds with Reid who ends up going back in time with him.
