Patrick Troughton himself was so terrified of being typecast as the Doctor that he never failed to spread a circle of salt around his bed each night and sit on his pillow playing an eerie melody on a recorder before going to sleep; if he awoke at night and had to leave his bed, he swept up the salt circle and repeated the ritual, sometimes as frequently as five times a night. He also as a rule never ate chicken on a Wednesday, always carried his "lucky (cow’s) liver" with him and refused to wear underwear anytime he was expected to be on stage. Sadly none of his talismans or Apache Devil Dances could fend off the inevitable; Patrick Throughton succumbed to reprising the role of Doctor Number 2 three times more before he died and even continued to do the convention circuit in full costume a

As well known and accredited as the Three Season Hex rule is, it’s funny to note that few of the actors portraying the Doctor have obeyed it but instead flagrantly ignored it and have paid dearly for such hubris; you’d think they’d learned by now, but noooo...
