Quatermass
Professor Bernard Quatermass is a fictional character, created by Nigel Kneale, who appeared in three influential BBC science fiction series of the 1950s, and made his swansong in a final series for Thames Television in 1979. Quatermass is a British scientist who continually finds himself confronting sinister alien forces that threaten to destroy humanity. In each series he is played by a different actor.
The first three series were also adapted as movies:
Kneale has gone on record as strongly disliking Donlevy's characterization of Quatermass.
