Matthew Waterhouse (born December 19, 1961 Hertford) is a British actor best known for his role as Adric in the BBC science fiction television series Doctor Who. After leaving the series, he began a stage career.
Adric was a companion of Tom Baker and Peter Davison's Doctors from 1981 to 1982. Waterhouse was the youngest male actor to play a companion (Jackie Lane, who played Dodo Chaplet, holds the distinction of being the youngest female actor to play a companion).
Waterhouse's name was used by comedians Matt Lucas and David Walliams for a character in their sketch show Little Britain. Waterhouse in the programme is an unsuccessful inventor or bizarre and ridiculous new versions of things such as board games and breakfast cereals. Little Britain has also featured a character named after another Doctor Who companion actor, Michael Craze.
